Researchers in China have created new Silver Pastes for Topcon Solar Cell Leco production. The new pastas integrate aluminum, gallium or iron and are said to be securely anchored to keep the electrodes of cells safely anchored to the silicon cell surface due to the improved stability of the lead oxide (PBO) component in the glass powder. June 24, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of researchers led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences claims to have an improved quality of the silver paste for producing solar cells based on tunneloxide-passivated contact (topcon) solar cells via the so-called laser-improved contact optimization…
