Silicon on Dust Substrate: The Effect of Powder Size on Ribbon Production

The silicon on dust substrate process is a two‐step technique to produce multicrystalline silicon (mc‐Si) ribbons directly from gaseous feedstock. Silicon pre‐ribbons of very small grain size (ranging from nano to microcrystalline), with a porous structure and dimensions up to 25 × 100 mm2, are obta...

Description
Summary:The silicon on dust substrate process is a two‐step technique to produce multicrystalline silicon (mc‐Si) ribbons directly from gaseous feedstock. Silicon pre‐ribbons of very small grain size (ranging from nano to microcrystalline), with a porous structure and dimensions up to 25 × 100 mm2, are obtained using an inline optical chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system operating at atmospheric pressure and at low temperatures (
