5.1. Silicon wafer fabrication The vast majority of silicon solar cells in the market are fabricated on mono- or multicrystalline silicon wafers. The largest fraction of PV modules are fabricated with crystalline solar cells today, having multicrystalline cells been relegated to a few percent of market share, followed by thin film-based cells.
The technology is non-polluting and can rather easily be implemented at sites where the power demand is needed. Based on this, a method for fabricating polycrystalline silicon solar cells is sought and a thorough examination of the mechanisms of converting solar energy into elec-trical energy is examined.
