High-Speed Laser Processing in Thin-Film Module Manufacturing More Efficient and Cost-Effective Thin-Film Solar Modules

摘要

The key in thin-film module produc-tion is reduced costs per Wattpeak (Wp).This can be achieved by cost-effectiveproduction steps, shorter cycle times andenhanced module efficiency. Module ef-ficiency depends on the weakest cell andactive module area. That is the reasonwhy high precision scribing is gaining inimportance. Reducing cycle time is feasi-ble by process parallelization and increas-ing process speed. This paper presents asummary of current laser processes inthin-film module production.
