Perovskite solar cells have garnered widespread attention as a low-cost, high-efficiency alternative to conventional silicon ...

Scientists in Saudi Arabia have developed a new passivation process for n-type silicon solar cells, which they say could offer a simpler, lower-cost alternative to current processes used in ...

The finishing process improves surface protection and reduces contamination.

UNSW researchers boosted TOPCon solar cell efficiency by locally thinning the rear poly-Si layer, reducing parasitic absorption while preserving wafer integrity. The champion cell built with this ...

Understanding the passivation process in semiconductor manufacturing is essential before unpacking the specifics of glass as a material. Passivation involves applying a protective layer to the surface ...

Many stainless-steel automotive parts must undergo passivation to ensure they are adequately corrosion-resistant and not prone to early failure, two factors critical for performance and a long ...

Laboratory tests can determine critical cleaning parameters for passivation treatments used to prevent rouge on GMP stainless-steel equipment. Stainless steel is usually the preferred substrate for ...

The author describes the types and sources of rouge and explains ways to prevent and mitigate this problem. Stainless steel is the primary construction material for pharmaceutical and ...
