Meanings of crystalline silicon in English

The remaining 5 MW of Masdar's solar power plant will be built from crystalline silicon panels.

Under the deal, Suntech will supply crystalline silicon solar panels and provide system design and technical support.

Thin-film panels absorb light more easily than crystalline silicon so require less semiconductor material and are cheaper.

Last year, it wound down an unprofitable thin-film solar power business to focus on crystalline silicon solar equipment.

Such panels use refined crystalline silicon.

Cadmium telluride panels are cheaper to produce, but less efficient, than the crystalline silicon panels that dominate the market.

There are two primary kinds of crystalline silicon used in solar panels: mono crystalline silicon and poly crystalline silicon.

We demonstrate intense room temperature photoluminescence (PL) from optically active hydrogen- related defects incorporated into crystalline silicon.

We measured the cross plane thermal conductivity of a series of single crystalline silicon PnCs using time domain thermoreflectance.

Both lines will produce crystalline silicon solar cells and modules with a capacity of 120MW each, LG said in a statement.

OptiSolar so-called thin film solar panels are made from amorphous silicon and are cheaper to produce than traditional crystalline silicon panels.

The Memphis plant, which assembles Sharp's crystalline silicon-based solar photovoltaic panels that are manufactured in Japan, has about 220 workers now, said Kenedi.

Both also fall under the category of "thin film" solar, meaning they are cheaper to produce than traditional crystalline silicon panels.

Germany remained a "bright spot" in the crystalline silicon rooftop solar market and China a growing area for such products, Splinter said.

Thin film semiconductors absorb light more easily than crystalline silicon so require less semiconductor material but tend to be less efficient in energy conversion.

Applied Materials is preparing for multi-week plant shutdowns in the fiscal second and third quarters, anticipating a halving of the market for crystalline silicon equipment.
