%X Silicon heterojunction with nc-SiC(n)/SiO2 based front transparent passivating contact (TPC) is numerically modeled. The model is then used to study the effect of active dopant concentration at the front and rear contact of the solar cell. A potential of power conversion efficiency above 25 % can be achieved with a suitable acceptor dopant concentration of p-type amorphous silicon at the rear side. Improving fill factor via SiC dopant concentration can enhance the cell power conversion efficiency within a narrow range of active dopant concentration. However, very high doping of SiC can affect the cell performance negatively.
