摘要
Advances in solar cell manufacturing systems for large-area Silicon-Film(TM)polycrystalline silicon sheet material are reviewed. Recent progress in continuous rapid thermal junction diffusion and cassetteless wet chemical processing is discussed. A single Silicon-Film(TM) sheet generation system operating at 3.1 m/min now has a capacity of 15 MW of silicon sheet per year. This sheet generation system is used as the basis for all advanced single-thread production line design for manufacturing the next generation of Silicon-Film(TM) solar cells whose area is nominally 400 cm(2). These solar cells are being used to design large-area solar modules that can produce up to 220 W of power. Copyright (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
