An alternative to silver paste: Copper plating is widely used both in the semiconductor industry and for bifacial and multi-junction PV cell designs. However, despite technical and cost advantages it ...

TOKYO, JAPAN: ADEKA Corp. has developed a new single-component type additive for TSV (Through Silicone Via) copper plating that will bring a reduction in costs, prevent defects and is very versatile.

The solar industry has dragged its heels on the issue of silver-dependence for cell metallization, but China’s Jiangsu Xianghuan Technology (JXTC) is moving into commercial production with a copper ...

Fraunhofer ISE development also uses recyclable aluminum for masking – removing need for problem polymers. Thin copper contacts mean the silicon layer does not experience much shading. The rising ...

3D printing is known for producing parts with a fairly average finish at best. Even the smoothest resin prints are still fairly plasticky and dull in appearance. However, it’s possible to do much ...
