Abstract: A solar cell having buried contacts is provided. Curved trenches are formed on a surface of a Si substrate to form the buried contacts. The curved trenches have deep depths with wafer break prevented. The buried contacts have good efficiency on collecting electrons obtained from conversion by the longer wavelength light. The present invention is fit for mass production with a high yield, a simple fabrication procedure, a low cost and a good performance.

Abstract: The present disclosure coats an amorphous silicon (Si) layer on a doped Si substrate of a solar cell. Or, a silicon dioxide (SiO2) layer is grown on the doped Si substrate and beneath the amorphous Si layer. A heterojunction interface and a homojunction interface are formed in the solar cell in a one-time diffusion. Thus, a heterojunction solar cell can be easily fabricated and utilities compatible to those used in modern production can still be used for reducing cost.
