Research Summary

Solar cell metal paste refers to a specialized material used in the manufacturing of photovoltaic (PV) cells, which are the building blocks of solar panels. This paste is composed of finely dispersed metal particles, typically silver or aluminum, mixed with a glass frit and an organic solvent or binder. The metal paste is applied to the surface of solar cells through screen printing or other deposition techniques. Its primary function is to create electrical contacts on the front and rear surfaces of the solar cell, enabling the efficient collection and transmission of electric current generated by sunlight. On the front side of the cell, silver paste is used to form fine grid lines (busbars) and finger contacts that conduct electricity from the semiconductor material to external circuitry. Aluminum paste is often applied on the rear side of the cell to create a larger contact area (back surface field) for improved conductivity and efficiency. Solar cell metal paste is engineered to adhere well to semiconductor surfaces, withstand high temperatures during processing, exhibit high electrical conductivity, and resist corrosion and degradation over time, ensuring reliable performance and longevity of solar panels in converting sunlight into usable electricity.
