Abstract

L'invention porte sur des cellules photovoltaïques et sur des procédés qui limitent des pertes de recombinaison de porteurs photogénérés. Pour réduire des pertes de recombinaison, des couches de dopage diffuses dans des éléments photovoltaïques (PV) actifs sont revêtues de motifs d'un ou de plusieurs matériaux diélectriques qui réduisent un contact entre des contacts métalliques et l'élément PV actif. Divers motifs peuvent être utilisés, et une ou plusieurs surfaces de l'élément PV peuvent être revêtues d'un ou de plusieurs matériaux diélectriques. Des cellules photovoltaïques à multiples jonctions verticales peuvent être produites avec des éléments PV à motifs, ou des cellules unitaires. Tandis que des éléments PV à motifs peuvent augmenter une résistance en série de cellules photovoltaïques VMJ, et que la formation de motifs sur une ou plusieurs surfaces dans l'élément PV peut ajouter de la complexité à un procédé utilisé pour produire des cellules photovoltaïques VMJ, une réduction de perte de porteurs au niveau des couches de dopage diffuses dans un élément PV augmente un rendement des cellules photovoltaïques, et fournit ainsi des avantages fonctionnels PV qui l'emportent sur une complexité de fabrication accrue. L'invention porte sur un système pour fabriquer les cellules photovoltaïques.
