Behaviour of the slip-cast crucible as a contamination source during silicon directional solidification
Skarstad, Hanna Vaksvik (Master thesis, 2016)In this work the behaviour of the slip-cast crucible as a contamination source of multicrystalline silicon during directional solidification (DS) was investigated. Transport parameters of iron were estimated in two types ... -
Defect-impurity interactions in high performance multicrystalline silicon
Adamczyk, Krzysztof (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:339, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Defect-impurity interactions in high performance multicrystalline silicon The global average and combined land and ocean surface temperature is steadily rising for the last several decades. About 97% of climate scientists ... -
The effect of preliminary heat treatment on the durability of reaction bonded silicon nitride crucibles for solar cells applications
Hendawi, Rania Tayseer Atieh; Ciftja, Arjan; Stokkan, Gaute; Arnberg, Lars; Di Sabatino Lundberg, Marisa (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Silicon nitride crucibles have the potential to replace silica crucibles and reduce the cost of silicon crystallization because of their reusability potential. Till date, crucibles’ heat treatment before each use is a ... -
Formation of Dislocation Arrays from CSL-type Grain Boundaries in Solar Silicon
Dyrvik, Emil Grove (Master thesis, 2019)Fotovoltaisk solenergi er allerede en av de store fornybare energikildene og forventes å være en av de viktigste energiteknologiene i en bærekraftig fremtid. Solceller basert på multikrystallinsk silisium har vært en ... -
