Abstract

MIS- and SIS-structured solar cells are receiving much attention in the photovoltaic community. Apparently these cells could be a viable alternative to thermally diffused p-n junctions for use on thin film polycrystalline silicon substrates. In this paper we review MIS- and SIS-structured solar cells and the possible advantages of these structures for use with thin film polycrystalline silicon. The results of efficiency calculations are presented. We also consider the lifetime stability and fabrication techniques amenable to large-scale production. Finally the relative advantages and disadvantages of these cells and the results obtained are presented.
