Theoretical studies of silicon hetero-junction solar cells with rib structure

The open-circuit voltage of a solar cell is known to increase with deceasing wafer thickness if the cell is adequately passivated. However, it is not easy to handle very thin wafers because they are brittle and are subject to warpage. To provide thinned wafers that have adequate mechanical strength,...
