Computational Study of Contact Solidification for Silicon Film Growth in the Ribbon Growth on Substrate System

Abstract: Ribbon growth on substrate (RGS) has emerged as a new method for growing silicon films at low cost for photovoltaic applications by contact solidification. Thermal conditions play an important role in determining the thickness and quality of the as-grown films. In this study, we have developed a mathematical model for heat transfer, fluid flow, and solidification in the RGS process. In particular, a semi-analytical approach is used in this model to predict solidification with a sharp solid–liquid interface wit… Show more
