摘要：

A simple process for nanotexturing on the emitter of silicon solar cells using catalyzed wet chemical etching by size-controlled silver nanoparticles was reported. A fine textured black surface was achieved to realize the low light reflectivity less than 5%. After screen printing and firing by the industrial standard fabrication protocol, we obtained the nanotextured Si solar cells with 15.7%-efficiency without any additional antireflection (AR) coating. This result suggests that the inexpensive metal-assisted wet chemical nanotexture method is prospective to be used in photovoltaic industry. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
