Technical FAQs 4

What type of glass is used for solar panels?

Crystalline silicon solar cells are connected together and then laminated under toughened or heat strengthened, high transmittance glass to produce reliable, weather resistant photovoltaic modules. The glass type that can be used for this technology is a low iron float glass such as Pilkington Optiwhite™.

What is crystalline silicon photovoltaics?

Crystalline silicon photovoltaics is the most widely used photovoltaic technology. Crystalline silicon photovoltaics are modules built using crystalline silicon solar cells (c-Si). These have high efficiency, making crystalline silicon photovoltaics an interesting technology where space is at a premium.

Which float glass is used as a substrate for solar cells?

As substrate for solar cells on multicrystalline (mc) silicon iron-poor SLG was used “Pilkington Optiwhite” (Pilkington Group Ltd, St. Helens, UK), which is a standard low-cost float glass. It is composed of 72.6% SiO 2, 13% Na 2 O, 8.8% CaO, 4.3% MgO, 0.6% Al 2 O 3, 0.02% SO 3 and 0.02% Fe 2 O 3.

Can mc-Si thin films be used for high-performance solar cells?

Homojunction and heterojunction diodes have been fabricated on the mc-Si thin films and show great potential of CSS for the realization of high-performance solar cells. Crystalline silicon is needed in large and ever-increasing amounts, in particular for photovoltaic (PV) energy conversion.
