Forming Solar-Cell Junctions By Flash DiffusionModified fabrication process simultaneously forms front and back junctions of silicon photovoltaic cells. With flash diffusion, junctions formed in 10 to 20 seconds. Cost reductions of 25 to 30 percent expected with modified process. Devices produced have performance equal to or better than cells made by conventional diffusion.
