Polycrystalline silicon is a multicrystalline form of silicon with high purity and used to make solar photovoltaic cells. How are polycrystalline silicon cells produced?
The present article gives a summary of recent technological and scientific developments in the field of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin-film solar cells on foreign substrates. Cost-effective fabrication methods and cheap substrate materials make poly-Si thin-film solar cells promising candidates for photovoltaics.
Silicon-based solar cells, which represent an important proportion of commercially available devices, are shortly addressed. Several available processes to obtain polycrystalline silicon, which can be classified basically by the temperature range involved in the overall process, are presented.
Poly-Si thin-film solar cells with 580 mV open circuit voltage are realized. The present article gives a summary of recent technological and scientific developments in the field of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin-film solar cells on foreign substrates.
Basic polycrystalline silicon based solar cells with a total area efficiency of app. 5% has been fabricated without the involvement of anti-reflecting coating. This is a resonable result considering that comercial high efficiency solar cells have a con-version efficiency of about 22%, as outlined in chapter 1.
Fabricated as thin layers, polycrystalline silicon also features all advantages of thin-film technologies, namely low costs due to low material wastage with up to factor 100 less material compared to wafer-based solar cells, and the technically feasible monolithic fabrication of large area devices.
