A vast majority of silicon solar cells are manufactured using silver paste that is screen printed onto the front side of the wafer and fired to form the front-side contact. Though this method is well established within the industry, it continues to present several areas for potential efficiency improvements. The Fraunhofer Institute has, among others, studied the potential of using electrodeposition of silver on top of the front side silver paste as a way to improve the frontside contact and increase cell efficiency.

is that cyanide free silver plating?
IT's great for the cell manufacture
thank you share the paper
