Abstract :
As one of the most rapidly growing industry in recent years, commercialized crystalline silicon solar cell has faced a lot of challenge, especially from its similar application, the thin film solar cell technology. In order to survive at this crucial competition, there are several ways to overcome the difficulties. However, all the evidence point to the same way only, that is to apply the high efficiency technologies on commercialized process.
