The Impact

A comparative study has been made to analyze the impact of interstitial iron in minority carrier lifetime of multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si). It is shown that iron plays a negative role and is considered very detrimental for minority carrier recombination lifetime. The analytical results of this study are aligned with the spatially resolved imaging analysis of iron rich mc-Si.

The Impact

A novel crystal growth method has been developed for the production of ingots, bricks and wafers for solar cells. Monocrystallinity is achievable over large volumes with minimal dislocation incorporation. The resulting defect types, densities and interactions are described both microscopically for wafers and macroscopically for the ingot, looking closely at the impact of the defects on minority carrier lifetime. Solar cells of 156 cm2 size have been produced ranging up to 17% in efficiency using industrial screen print processes.
