Abstract: Abstract Dislocation clusters are the main crystal defects in multicrystalline silicon and are detrimental for solar cell efficiency. They were formed during the silicon ingot casting due to the relaxation of strain energy. The evolution… read more here.

Abstract: Three-dimensional distribution of grain boundaries (GBs) and generation sources of dislocation clusters is examined in a cast-grown high-performance multicrystalline silicon ingot for commercial solar cells. A significant number of dislocations are generated nearby some triple… read more here.
