Abstract

The conversion efficiencies of the base region of a bifacial silicon solar cell are compared under front- and back-side illumination. Calculations reveal that both parameters can be equal when there are extremely high lifetimes of the nonequilibrium carriers in the base and low surface recombination velocities. The results from microwave photoconductivity measurements are consistent with the calculated data.
