ABSTRACT:
An improved solar cell structure is described wherein the cell's front region is provided with a plurality of raised structures, each structure comprising a multilayer of a highly doped region and a high-low junction. On these raised structures sit the solar cell's conductive grid. By emplacing the multilayer structure directly underneath the front region metallized conductive grid, the efficiency losses which would have been present had the highly doped region extended entirely or partially across the front layer, are avoided and the high surface recombination velocity associated with the grid is masked.
