Effect of pellet size and additive on silica carbothermic reduction in microwave furnace for solar grade silicon
Silicon as a raw material for solar cells can be produced by numerous methods. The carbothermic reduction of silica using electric arc furnace is the most widely used process in silicon industry. This paper presents a new approach to produce solar grade silicon using microwave furnace. Pellets of di...
