A crucial factor in high volume screen printing is how the mesh used in screens gets deformed during repeated printing, which has a negative impact on alignment precision.

As such, they are the best established, most mature solar cell fabrication technology, and screen-printed solar cells currently dominate the market for terrestrial photovoltaic modules. The key advantage of screen-printing is the relative simplicity of the process.
The key advantage of screen-printing is the relative simplicity of the process. There are a variety of processes for manufacturing screen-printed solar cells. The production technique given in the animation below is one of the simplest techniques and has since been improved upon by many manufacturers and research laboratories.
When the cell is cofired (in the next production step), the paste etches through the silicon nitride and silver contacts the underlying silicon to form the n -type contacts to the solar cell. This tutorial focuses on the silver screen printing process as the design of the screens is critical for the way the pattern is used to form the metal grid.
The paste can be pushed through the openings in the screen using a squeegee to form a pattern of paste on the cell surface under the screen. Screen printing is used to form the rear aluminium electrode and the front surface silver grid (busbars and fingers) on the silicon nitride antireflection coating (ARC).
In this test, the cell is placed under the solar simulator and contacted by test probes so as to short-circuit the cell. This causes the maximum photogenerated current to flow within the silver metal lines, thereby maximising the resistive losses in the silver fingers.
The Silver Screen Printing process depends on properties of the screen (mesh density, strand diameter, emulsion thicknesses above and under the screen, finger width and pitch), the paste viscosity as well as the printing process (squeegee pressure and speed).
