abstract = {The crystalline silicon (c-Si) based technologies occupy
$95\%$ market share in the global photovoltaic (PV)
production capacity. The conversion efficiency of silicon
heterojunction (SHJ) solar cell in mass production has gone
beyond $23\%.$ The most pressing challenge hindering the
industrial scale expansion of SHJ solar cell currently is
the relatively high production cost as compared to the PERC
(passivated emitter and rear cell) product. The low
temperature silver paste utilized in the SHJ cell process
accounts significantly for about $30\%$ of the total
processing cost due to its large consumption. Copper plating
is of great current interest to silicon heterojunction
application, which has a high potential to cut down the cost
and improve cell efficiency by the remarkably reduced
shading loss, increased electrode conduction and fill
factor. However, there are still some critical issues need
to be systematically optimized and proven for mass
production. Selectively-deposited seed layer and
stripping-free plating resist are the key factors to
simplify the plating process. This paper gives a detailed
look into the development of copper metallization for SHJ
solar cell. Plating process involving seed layer formation
and patterning methods are explicated. The process
simplification and reliability are discussed aiming at its
employment in industrial production.},
