Silicon-based solar cells have not only been the cornerstone of the photovoltaic industry for decades but also a symbol of the relentless pursuit of renewable energy sources. The journey began in 1954 with the development of the first practical silicon solar cell at Bell Labs, marking a pivotal moment in the history of solar energy .
During this period, the solar industry has witnessed technological advances, cost reductions, and increased awareness of renewable energy's benefits. As more than 90% of the commercial solar cells in the market are made from silicon, in this work we will focus on silicon-based solar cells.
Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative Policies and ethics Silicon (Si) is the dominant solar cell manufacturing material because it is the second most plentiful material on earth (28%), it provides material stability, and it has well-developed industrial production and solar cell fabrication technologies.
The manufacturing cost remains unchanged, and efficiencies close to the theoretical Shockley-Queisser limits are achieved. The increase in the bifacial silicon solar cells is due to the reduction in silicon wafer thickness and the increase in the transparency of the panels.
