Abstract:Herein, a process for the large‐area passivating and contacting of nanowire‐based solar cells is demonstrated. The nanowire‐based solar cells are prepared on layered laser crystallization (LLC) polycrystalline silicon (pc‐Si) thin films with thickness less than 2 μm. It is demonstrated that the space between the nanowires can be filled with a passivating dielectrics Al2O3 layer, and the nanowire tips can be exposed by a self‐regulating selective etching of the Al2O3 deposited on the tips and that on the sidewa… Show more
