Mechanical deformation of polycrystalline silicon for solar cell production

This thesis presents a feasibility study for producing silicon sheet for photovoltaic applications via traditional hot deformation in clean conditions using high purity materials. A special deformation rig has been designed and constructed for the compression tests. The cleanliness of the deformatio...
