    摘要: A solar cell includes a silicon substrate, a first doped region, and a second doped region. The first doped region includes a first passivated contact region on the silicon substrate and a second passivated contact region on the first passivated contact region. The first passivated contact region includes a first doped layer, a first passivation layer, and a second doped layer. The second passivated contact region includes a second passivation layer and a third doped layer. The second doped region includes a third passivation layer. Each of the first and third passivation layers includes a porous structure. One of the first and second doped regions is a P-type doped region, the other of the first and second doped regions is an N-type doped region, and a hole density of a corresponding passivation layer in the P-type doped region is greater than that in the N-type doped region.
