Future high efficiency silicon solar cells are expected to be based on n-type monocrystalline wafers. Cell and module photovoltaic conversion efficiency increases are required to contribute to lower cost per watt peak and to reduce balance of systems cost.
With an efficiency rate of up to 25%, monocrystalline panels reach higher efficiency levels than both polycrystalline (13-16%) and thin-film (7-18%) panels. Monocrystalline photovoltaic (PV) cells are made from a single crystal of highly pure silicon, generally crystalline silicon (c-Si).
The best real-world silicon solar cell to date, developed by Kaneka Corporation, is able to achieve 26.7% conversion efficiency 7, 8. A loss analysis of this 165 μm -thick, heterojunction IBC cell shows that in absence of any extrinsic loss mechanism the limiting efficiency of such a cell would be 29.1% 7.
In the field of solar energy, monocrystalline silicon is also used to make photovoltaic cells due to its ability to absorb radiation. Monocrystalline silicon consists of silicon in which the crystal lattice of the entire solid is continuous. This crystalline structure does not break at its edges and is free of any grain boundaries.
Monocrystalline silicon cells can absorb most photons within 20 μm of the incident surface. However, limitations in the ingot sawing process mean that the commercial wafer thickness is generally around 200 μm. This type of silicon has a recorded single cell laboratory efficiency of 26.7%.
Monocrystalline photovoltaic (PV) cells are made from a single crystal of highly pure silicon, generally crystalline silicon (c-Si). Monocrystalline cells were first developed in the 1950s as first-generation solar cells. The process for making monocrystalline is called the Czochralski process and dates back to 1916.
