Abstract
The impact of via etching on triple junction solar cell performance has been investigated for through cell via contact architectures. Triple junction solar cells with standard top and back contacts have been fabricated and vias have been etched through the subcells to investigate the new geometry proposed. The external quantum efficiency, the open-circuit voltage (V <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">oc</sub> ), the fill factor (FF), and the ideality factor have been measured and compared to those of standard triple junction solar cells without vias. In this way, we evaluate the losses attributable to via etching. Small performance losses from via integration are observed, but performance can be partially restored with an ammonium sulfide passivation treatment. Furthermore, the results show that the V <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">oc</sub> losses are almost absent at the high sun concentration that the new architecture is designed for. The source of the performance degradation is correlated with a larger total surface recombination at the edges of the device. The passivation treatment allows an effective surface passivation of the via holes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
