The Third Workshop on Metallization for Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells was held in Charleroi, Belgium on 25 and 26 October 2011. This paper reports on the different contributions and discussions that took place. Great progress has recently been achieved in paste development, which yet again has stretched the lifetime of screen-printed metallization technology. Nevertheless, a transition towards Cu plating-based metallization is anticipated, and solutions to the different challenges were presented and discussed
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.
