Thin silicon solar cells: Pathway to cost-effective and defect-tolerant cell design

Thinner silicon wafers are a pathway to lower cost without compromising the efficiency of solar cells. In this work, we study the recombination mechanism for thin and thick silicon heterojunction solar cells, and we discuss the potential of using more defective material to manufacture high perform...
