Microstructural Evolution of Mechanically Deformed Polycrystalline Silicon for Kerfless Photovoltaics
Microstructural Evolution of Mechanically Deformed Polycrystalline Silicon for Kerfless Photovoltaics is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Physica Status Solidi A''. The main subjects of the publication include crystallography, silicon, Glass Annealing, semiconductor wafer, composite material, recrystallization, nanomaterial, metallurgy, Electron backscatter diffraction, chemical-mechanical planarization, polycrystalline silicon, dislocation, materials science, crystallite, and grain boundary. Silicon wafers for photovoltaics could be produced without kerf loss by rolling, provided sufficient control of defects such as dislocations can be achieved.
