© The Author(s) 2015. Published by ECS. A 43-μm-thick Si(111) substrate was obtained using the stress-induced lift-off method with a screen-printed metal paste layer as the stress-generation layer. The reflection of the metal-removed side of the Si(111) substrate was lower than that of the exfoliated side because of high surface roughness resulting from the reaction between the metal paste and the silicon substrate at 700°C. After aggressive etching with an alkaline solution for the peeled silicon substrate, the efficiency of the heterojunction silicon solar cell was improved from 0.87% to 12%.
