DuPont™ Solamet® PV20x Front Side Silver Paste Enables Efficiency Premium on P-type PERC Solar Cells

Features include:

• Superior contact to enhanced LDEs and high RSheet emitters (Mono & Multi) at significantly lower firing temperatures
• Proprietary Tellurium technology further reduces surface recombination losses and junction damage and lowers contact resistance
• Gains >0.1% efficiency demonstrated in production
  

Designed to work synergistically to maximize PERC efficiencies

Gains >0.1% efficiency demonstrated in production

• Improved Voc from minimized surface recombination without trade-off in fill factor (FF) at lower firing temperatures
• Improved open circuit voltage (Voc) from minimized paste induced rear passivation damage
• Better short circuit current (Jsc) from improved fine line capability
• Good back surface field (BSF) formation on localized contact

Provides proven module reliability

• Demonstrated strong adhesion to passivation layers
• Minimized Kirkendall voids
• Reliable module performance after climate chamber test
