New Laser-Based Contacting Process Developed for Solar Cells
The Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE has actually created an alternate process for creating solar battery calls. The laser transfer as well as shooting (LTF) method offers numerous benefits contrasted to conventional procedures, specifically for specific solar cell surface areas. Along with market partners in the joint project "C3PO", the Fraunhofer scientists in Freiburg have realized a totally automated LTF procedure for the first time on a system from Pulsar Photonics GmbH. Currently the process can be systematically examined and also maximized with the goal of industrial execution. f-cell conference in Stuttgart on September 29.
