  The purpose of the work presented in this paper is to show cost effective and industrial solutions for the tuning of boron emitters, surface preparation and passivation of n-Pasha solar cells.The n-Pasha cells now reach average efficiencies of 20.4%, with op efficiencies of 20.5%.One of the main limiting factors for n-Pasha cells currently is the boron emitter and its passivation [1].We present a simple and effective method to tune the emitter profile such that the recombination is decreased while the sheet conductance and contact ability is largely unaffected.The boron emitter profile is tuned using a new method of etching the surface by 10-20 nm, resulting in a boron emitter without boron depletion at the surface.The emitter recombination current J0E is decreased from 100 fA/cm2 to 60 fA/cm2 while maintaining the sheet resistance at 60 ohm/sq.n-Pasha cells made with these profiles exhibit a higher Voc by 6 mV and a higher efficiency by 0.2% absolute.

中阶梯光栅光谱仪是采用交叉色散技术获得高级次谱实现全谱闪耀的高衍射效率光谱仪,交叉色散设计和二维谱图的识读是决定其性能的关键.所以对中阶梯光栅光谱仪的校准主要应从交叉色散技术和谱图识别的两个方面进行.中阶梯光栅光谱仪的最终数据输出是二维谱图,二维谱图的形成综合了中阶梯光栅、交叉棱镜等参数之间的关系,并包含了二维谱图处理和识别技术.
