  • Patent number: 11929441
    Abstract: A conductive contact structure of a solar cell is provided, includes a substrate; a semiconductor region; and an electrode. The semiconductor region is disposed on or in the substrate. The electrode is disposed in the semiconductor region. The electrode includes a seed layer in contact with the semiconductor region. The seed layer includes an alloy material, and includes a main component and an improved component. The main component is one or more metals having an average refractive index lower than 2 and a wavelength in a range of 850-1200 nm, and the improved component includes any one or more of Mo, Ni, Ti, W, Cr, Mn, Pd, Bi, Nb, Ta, Pa, Si, and V.

  • Publication number: 20210108302
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for galvanizing a steel member of a support for a solar photovoltaic or photothermal system, which relates to metal surface treatment. The method includes: subjecting the steel member to phosphorus-free degreasing and then pickling; dipping the steel member in a flux solution; drying the steel member; and subjecting the steel member to hot-dip galvanization, cooling and passivation to produce galvanized steel member.
