Kerf-free wafering technology reduces polysilicon for photovoltaics.

by Ann Steffora Mutschler

To substantially reduce the amount of polysilicon within the ingot-to-wafer manufacturing steps and eliminate some of the costly consumables in today's wafer manufacturing, Silicon Genesis has produced solar substrates for photovoltaic applications using its 'kerf-free' wafer-processing technology. The company's PolyMax technology aims to eliminate material losses that occur during sawing; the term kerf refers to the width of the cut a saw blade makes. The company says its technology creates ...
