Surface type in Si solar cell
Metalized Finger and bus bar Very high surface recombination Avoid recombination loss
Non-metalized Illuminated region Well passivated and good blue response Avoid highly doped
Back electrode high surface recombination Avoid recombination loss

Concept
The fixed charge induced the negative charge on the surface, bending the band diagram.
Al2O3 is suitable to p-type Si substrate.

Band offset measurement
The Si substrate can passivated by dielectric film and electric field effect method.
The Al2O3 is suitable for p-type Si substrate passivation, and the SiNx is suitable for n-type Si substrate passivation.
