ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the shaping of solar cell substrate surfaces in order to provide advantageous light-catching and interaction properties.
Previous solar cell substrates have suffered from a relatively high percentage loss of light due to reflection from the substrate surface, as well as the disadvantage that light passing into the substrate may not be absorbed in regions of high collection probability, close to the semiconductor junctions.
