September 7, 2010 news, Honeywell International Inc. today announced the launch of a new electronic materials, use of these materials, crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell manufacturers to efficiently through the use of advanced batteries are designed to increase the power output.
These new materials used in semiconductor manufacturing, including large-scale electronic media and dopant. Honeywell Electronic Materials supplies electronic materials to the semiconductor industry more than 40 years, this expertise is now being used in photovoltaic industry.
Honeywell Electronic Materials Business Director DmitryShashkov said: “Honeywell spirit of the spirit of continuous innovation, constantly mature semiconductor technology and materials used in photovoltaic industry. Honeywell’s new doping agent and dielectric materials contribute to crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell manufacturers to low-cost, high-volume industrial manufacturing processes applied to the validation of a new R & D labs through the solar cell design. ” RN873 GW240
The efficiency of solar cells is essential for PV manufacturers. Efficiency means that the same size of the battery plates received the same amount of solar radiation case will provide higher power output. Therefore, the cost of solar cell efficiency is to determine the key deciding factor.具体 case, with these new dopants and dielectric materials, Zhi Zao Shang Zai photovoltaic cells can create new Deji Shu Zhong Ying Yong, Shi De Mei-watt power of Chengben production than the current reduced by the use of technology Dada.
Dopants can change the electrical properties of silicon materials, chemical formula, can selectively change the solar cell electrical properties of specific parts. Dielectric insulator in the formula can be used as chemicals, can prevent the current through the PV cells in certain regions. The dielectric material also has other advantages, for example, can be used as passivation layer to prevent the harmful compound effect, or as a diffusion barrier layer to prevent dopant diffusion region of some unnecessary, but also can be used as mask materials .
As the impurity photovoltaic cells will reduce the quality of these new materials, Honeywell will design the content of impurity control in a very low level. Honeywell’s new material can be used crystalline silicon cells, including selective emitter structure, back passivation, point contact, and boron back field (BSF) cells. In addition, Honeywell will make n-type doping agent widely used silicon substrate, instead of the current dominant p-type silicon, thereby eliminating the p-type silicon photo-induced degradation is adversely affected. There are many ways both economical and high yield of these new materials can be applied to silicon, for example, screen printing and inkjet printing, and other photovoltaic and electronics manufacturing industry has been using the very mature approach.
The PV manufacturing development of new materials from the Sunnyvale, Calif., and Honeywell, Shanghai, China to complete the advanced R & D institutions. In addition, Honeywell and Research Institute, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and the global PV manufacturers work closely together to ensure that these materials and has a large-scale commercial production of equipment compatible and meet the whole process of technology integration of PV requirements Inspiron 1525 battery Inspiron 1526 battery .
In addition to these new materials other than the Honeywell Electronic Materials, introduced last year for photovoltaic panels products SOLARC? Anti-reflective coating improves the optical transmittance of glass panels to enhance the efficiency of photovoltaic modules and power output.
Honeywell is the 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Exhibition to announce the news, the show is the world’s largest photovoltaic solar General Assembly, the solar industry’s global leaders together to discuss industry issues facing science and technology.
