abstract = {Carrier collection in silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar
cells is usually achieved by doped amorphous silicon layers
of a few nanometers, deposited at opposite sides of the
crystalline silicon wafer. These layers are often
defect-rich, resulting in modest doping efficiencies,
parasitic optical absorption when applied at the front of
solar cells, and high contact resistivities with the
adjacent transparent electrodes. Their substitution by
equally thin doped nanocrystalline silicon layers has often
been argued to resolve these drawbacks. However,
low-temperature deposition of highly crystalline doped
layers of such thickness on amorphous surfaces demands
sophisticated deposition engineering. In this paper, we
review and discuss different strategies to facilitate the
nucleation of nanocrystalline silicon layers and assess
their compatibility with SHJ solar cell fabrication. We also
implement the obtained layers into devices, yielding solar
cells with fill factor values of over $79\%$ and
efficiencies of over $21.1\%,$ clearly underlining the
promise this material holds for SHJ solar cell
applications.},
