    摘要: Embodiments of the invention contemplate the formation of a high efficiency solar cell using a novel processing sequence to form a solar cell device. In one embodiment, the methods include the use of various etching and patterning processes that are used to define active regions of the device and regions where the device and/or contact structure is to be located on a surface of a solar cell substrate. The method generally includes the steps of forming one or more layers on a backside of a solar cell substrate to prevent attack of the backside surface of the substrate, and provide a stable supporting surface, when the front side regions of a solar cell are formed. In one embodiment, the one or more layers are a metalized backside contact structure that is formed on the backside of the solar cell substrate. In another embodiment, the one or more layers are a chemical resistant dielectric layer that is formed over the backside of the solar cell substrate.

    摘要: A method for measuring the concentration of the metal solution and reducing agent solution within the electroless plating solution is disclosed. Raman spectroscopy is used to measure the concentration of each solution within the electroless plating solution after they have been mixed together. By measuring the concentration of each solution prior to providing the solution to a plating cell, the concentration of the individual solutions can be adjusted so that the targeted concentration of each solution is achieved. Additionally, each solution can be individually analyzed using Raman spectroscopy prior to mixing with the other solutions. Based upon the Raman spectroscopy measurements of the individual solutions prior to mixing, the individual components that make up each solution can be adjusted prior to mixing so that the targeted component concentration can be achieved.
