A solar cell fabrication process uses several high-temperature steps including a phosphorus diffusion process and a metal contact firing. The silicon wafer is p-type doped to 1 · 10 15 cm −3. The required surface doping and depth for the diffused part of the pn junction are 1 · 10 19 cm −3 and 200 nm, respectively.
This gives room for using lower quality (and lower cost) silicon material to fabricate the wafers, knowing that they will be further purified during the solar cell fabrication. The diffusion process happens on all the wafer surfaces, creating unwanted doping at the rear and edges of the wafer.
Constant-source and constant-dose diffusion are the most common in silicon solar cell fabrication. Typical processes to form the pn junction in silicon solar cells comprise two steps: A pre-deposition process with a constant source, such as process A defined previously, to introduce the desired dose of dopant impurities in the wafer surface.
