Solar Cell Processing

Solar cell fabrication is based on a sequence of processing steps carried on ~200-μm-thick lightly (0.5–3 ohm-cm) doped n or p-type Si wafer (Fig. 2.1).Both surfaces of the wafer sustain damage during ingot slicing awing process [].Wafer surface damage removal is based on both alkaline and acidic etching and texturing processes.
