    • Boron Removal from Silicon Melt by gas Blowing Technique 

      Hoseinpur Kermani, Arman; Andersson, Stefan; Müller, Michael; Tang, Kai; Safarian, Jafar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Due to the detrimental effects of boron (B) on the efficiency of silicon (Si) photovoltaic cells, complete boron removal from Si is necessary to produce solar grade Si (SoG–Si, with a maximum limit of 0.1 ppmw boron). Gas ...
    • Boron Removal from Silicon Melts by H2O/H2 Gas Blowing: Mass Transfer in Gas and Melt 

      Sortland, Øyvind Sunde; Tangstad, Merete (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Metallurgical routes for solar grade silicon production are being developed as alternatives to chemical processes for their potential to achieve cost reductions, increased production volume, and reduced environmental and ...
    • Boron trapping at dislocations in an additively manufactured polycrystalline superalloy
