Solar Wafer Texturing Process
Singulus Technologies AGRequest Info
KAHL AM MAIN, Germany, Dec. 19, 2017 — Singulus Technologies AG has announced a new texturing process for the machining of multicrystalline solar wafers to production readiness.
Using a sawing technique is more environmentally friendly than the conventional slurry process, which involves a mixture of oil and silicon carbide. The sawing process damages the surface of the solar wafers, which is then processed by wet-chemical texturing. Texturing removes saw marks and produces a uniform, homogeneous structure.
The new manufacturing process incorporates two distinct steps developed in-house: the use of new additives and the use of ozone for post-cleaning.
