We have investigated the formation of large-grained polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) films on glass for thin-film solar cells using the 'seed layer concept' which is based on the epitaxial thickening of a thin large-grained poly-Si template (seed layer). Due to the glass substrate all
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
