Polycrystalline silicon, or multicrystalline silicon, also called polysilicon, poly-Si, or mc-Si, is a high purity, polycrystalline form of silicon, used as a raw material by the solar photovoltaic and electronics industry. Polysilicon is produced from metallurgical grade silicon by a chemical purification process, called the Siemens process. This process involves distillation of volatile silicon compounds, and their decomposition into silicon at high temperatures. An emerging, alternative process of refinement uses a fluidized bed reactor
Learn the engineering process used to create multicrystalline silicon cells, understanding the balance between manufacturing cost and solar efficiency.
Over the past decade, the crystalline-silicon (c-Si) photovoltaic (PV) industry has grown rapidly and developed a truly global supply chain, driven by increasing consumer demand for PV as well as
Multicrystalline cells are produced using numerous grains of monocrystalline silicon. In the manufacturing process, molten polycrystalline silicon is cast into ingots, which are subsequently cut
