6 FAQs about [N-type and p-type bifacial cells]

Can bifacial n-type cells be applied to front-junction p-type cell?

This work shows that the production flow of high performance rear-junction bifacial n-type cells can be applied to front-junction p-type cells without process alterations and with a loss of efficiency as low as −0.3% provided that the wafer bulk lifetime is high enough.

What is the PFF of a p-type cell?

In the fashion of A. Descoeudres et al., these curves are compared with a calculated pseudo JV curve of a hypothetical p-type cell that would have the same effective lifetime curve as the Ga 20 cell but with a Ga doping equal to the phosphorus doping of the reference cell. It is calculated that such a cell would have a pFF of 85.5%.

Which type of solar cell has a higher bifacial rate?

P-type Solar Cells (1) In terms of bifacial rate, N-type solar cells have a higher bifacial rate than P-type solar cells. The PERC (P-Type) cell has a bifacial rate of 75%, TOPCon (N-Type) has a bifacial rate of 85%, and HJT (N-Type) has a bifacial rate of approximately 95%.

What is the bifacial rate of a PERC cell?

The PERC (P-Type) cell has a bifacial rate of 75%, TOPCon (N-Type) has a bifacial rate of 85%, and HJT (N-Type) has a bifacial rate of approximately 95%. The higher the bifacial rate, the greater the power generation gain on the rear of the module, particularly in PV power stations with high surface reflectivity.

What is the difference between n-type and P-type cells?

In an N-type cell, electrons are the majority charge carrier. They flow from the N-type layer on top to the metal contact, generating electricity. In a P-type cell, the absence of electrons (holes) are the majority charge carrier. They flow from the P-type base to the N-type emitter.

How efficient are p-type SHJ cells compared to n-type cells?

The early work performed by Vicari Stefani et al. opened the way and estimated that p-type SHJ cells must have an efficiency at most 0.4% below that of n-type cells to balance the current wafer cost difference.
