Abstract

In this study, PN junction solar cell and P$\^$+/-N-N$\^$+/ BSF solar cell, using N-type(111), 10$\^$16/[atoms/cm$\^$-3/] wafer, were fabricated applying that ion implant method whose dose are 1E14, 1E15, 3E15 and its acceleration energy is 50Key, 100Key respectively. The impurity concentration of two types of front-side are 10$\^$18/[atoms/cm$\^$-3/] and back-side concentration for BSF solar cell is 10$\^$17/[atoms/cm$\^$-3/]. As a result of comparison for 2 typical types of cells out of various fabricated samples, open circuit voltage (Voc), short circuit current(Isc) of BSF solar cell are larger than those of PN solar cell by 48[%], 14[%]. Considering that the efficiency of BSF cell is 2.5[%] as well as PN solar cell's is 7.5[%], 10.0[%] of efficiency improvement effect can be obtained from BSF solar cell. Futhermore, in consequence of front-side impurity concentration change from 10$\^$17/[atoms/cm$\^$-3] to 10$\^$20/[atoms/cm$\^$-3/] alternately, the most ideal result can be expected when it is 10$\^$18/[atoms/cm$\^$-3/].
