The latest report from SEMI showed that 2Q 2023 silicon wafer shipment worldwide has increased by 2% from Q1 to 3,331 million square inches (MSI), showing signs of thaw from the winter of the ...

A Spanish-Finnish research team has fabricated an IBC solar cell with an ultrathin black silicon wafer with a thickness of 40 µm. The device is based on vanadium oxide and laser-processed ...

After silicon ingot is formed, a wire saw is used to cut thin slices of it into what are known as wafers. Weak acid is then used to clean the wafers.

Prices for epitaxial wafers, a high-end product, also were unchanged. It was the fourth straight quarter that prices for both remained flat.

Tiny sensors with tinier legs, stamped out of silicon wafers, could one day soon help fix your cellphone battery or study your brain.

As the industry’s first wafer with ultra-flat properties, UF-RFSi leverages Okmetic’s proprietary A-MCz ® -silicon material technology to deliver improved technical performance with high ...

The group fabricated wafers using this process with promising results, and now plans to integrate the process into a full silicon cell.

Silicon solar cells are the backbone of the world’s solar-generated electricity, accounting for about 95 per cent of the solar cells in the photovoltaic market.
