CLEARWATER, Fla., Oct. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Representatives with Clearwater, Florida-based Sun Glo Plating Company, announced today that the company is now offering passivation to ...

Chinese researchers have developed a new passivation technique for shingled solar panels based on tunnel oxide passivated contacts (TOPCon) or heterojunction (HJT) tech. It reduces recombination ...

“With dual-cation passivation layer, the efficiency increased from 21.37% for the control cell to 23.13% for the passivated device, along with much improved shelf-life stability.” they said.

Facet passivation requires the use of specialized precision machinery because it is imperative that the process takes place under exceptionally strict environmental conditions. One of the most ...
