Embodiment Construction
[0122]Preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are illustrated in the drawings, like numbers being used to refer to like and corresponding parts of the various drawings. The innovative solar cell designs and technologies of the current disclosure are based on the use of a three-dimensional (3-D), self-supporting, doped (in one embodiment, in-situ-doped) semiconductor thin film, deposited on and released from a reusable crystalline (embodiments include monocrystalline or multicrystalline silicon) semiconductor template.
[0123]A preferred semiconductor material for the 3-D TFSC substrate is crystalline silicon (c-Si), although other semiconductor materials may also be used. One embodiment uses monocrystalline silicon as the thin film semiconductor material. Other embodiments use multicrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, microcrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, porous silicon, and / or a combination thereof. The designs here are also applicable to other semiconductor m...
