Abstract

A process for the production of a silicon solar cell comprising application and firing of an aluminum paste which comprises magnesium oxide and/or magnesium compounds capable of forming magnesium oxide on firing on the back-side of a silicon wafer provided with a silicon nitride antireflective coating on its front-side and being contaminated with silicon nitride on its back-side, and firing the aluminum paste after its application.
