Abstract

In article number 1902883, Muhammad Mustafa Hussain and co-workers demonstrate a lithography-less, cost-effective process for the fabrication of monocrystalline silicon solar cells which is complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology compatible. This technique uses an alternative pattern of corrugation that enables the crystalline silicon based solar cells to retain 20% or higher photovoltaic efficiency while making it ultra-flexible (1.4 mm bending radius) and record stretchability (up to 95%).
