Nagoya University: World’s first visualization of three-dimensional distribution of crystal defects
~ Expecting clarification of defect generation mechanism for high efficiency of solar cell ~
The research group at Nagoya University successfully visualized the three-dimensional distribution of crystal defects in the silicon ingot for solar cells by collecting fluorescent images of many silicon wafers for solar cells.
point
Crystal defects in silicon ingots were a problem in improving the performance of solar cells.
Through cooperation between experimental scientists and data scientists, we successfully visualized the three-dimensional distribution of crystal defects in silicon ingots.
It is expected to contribute to the improvement of quality of silicon ingot and the improvement of solar cell performance by elucidating the defect generation mechanism.
