How does a silicon wafer gettering process work?
Although this gettering occurs only at this surface, the unwanted impurities diffuse so fast that a significant fraction of the total impurities present in the silicon wafer volume get trapped there. Hence, the gettering process further purifies the silicon wafer.
Why are n-type wafers better than P-type solar cells?
In addition, it is important to note that the production of silicon doped with phosphorus is increasing, as n-type wafers gain advantage over p-type due to higher minority carrier lifetimes, being the wafers of choice for the most advanced solar cell designs in development and production, as we will study in Section 5.3.
Can silicon wafers be used to make solar cells?
Once the silicon wafers are fabricated, they can be used to manufacture solar cells. As you learned in Chapter 3, a solar cell is fundamentally a device optimized to absorb light, generate carriers (electrons and holes), and selectively extract them through its terminals in the form of a current flowing through a load.
What is a p-type silicon wafer?
The silicon wafer is p-type doped to 1 · 10 15 cm −3. The required surface doping and depth for the diffused part of the pn junction are 1 · 10 19 cm −3 and 200 nm, respectively. The contact firing is performed at 950°C for 10 min.
What are the barriers to adoption of n-type silicon cells?
Past barriers to adoption of n-type silicon cells by a broad base of cell and module suppliers include the higher cost to manufacture a p-type emitter junction and the higher cost of the n-type mono silicon crystal.
How do you make a wafer for a solar cell?
Wafer preparation Once the monocrystalline or multicrystalline ingots are fabricated, they must be shaped and sawed into wafers for subsequent solar cell fabrication. This process implies a material loss. First, the head and tail of the ingot are discarded, and the ingot is given a square shape by cutting off the edges.
