Using only 3–20 μm -thick silicon, resulting in low bulk-recombination loss, our silicon solar cells are projected to achieve up to 31% conversion efficiency, using realistic values of surface recombination, Auger recombination and overall carrier lifetime.
In the field of solar energy, monocrystalline silicon is also used to make photovoltaic cells due to its ability to absorb radiation. Monocrystalline silicon consists of silicon in which the crystal lattice of the entire solid is continuous. This crystalline structure does not break at its edges and is free of any grain boundaries.
Monocrystalline silicon cells can absorb most photons within 20 μm of the incident surface. However, limitations in the ingot sawing process mean that the commercial wafer thickness is generally around 200 μm. This type of silicon has a recorded single cell laboratory efficiency of 26.7%.

The high efficiency is attributed to: Better photon absorption due to its black color, compared to the characteristic blue tone of poly-silicon. Monocrystalline cells are more expensive than polycrystalline cells. For this reason, mono-Si cells are useful for applications where the main considerations are weight or available area limitations.
