متن کاملPerformance potential of low-defect density silicon thin-film solar cells obtained by electron beam evaporation and laser crystallisation
A few microns thick silicon films on glass coated with a dielectric intermediate layer can be crystallised by a single pass of a line-focused diode laser beam. Under favorable process conditions relatively large linear grains with low defect density are formed. Most grain boundaries are defect-free low-energy twin-boundaries. Boron-doped laser crystallised films are processed into solar cells b...
