The book addresses the problem of passivation at the surface of
crystalline silicon solar cells. More specifically, it reports on
a high-throughput, industrially compatible deposition method for
Al2O3, enabling its application to commercial solar cells. One of
the main focus is on the analysis of the physics of Al2O3 as a
passivating dielectric for silicon surfaces. This is accomplished
through a comprehensive study, which moves from the particular,
the case of aluminium oxide on silicon, to the general, the
physics of surface recombination, and is able to connect theory
with practice, highlighting relevant commercial
applications.
