  • Abstract
    The Via-hole Etching for the Separation of Thin films (VEST) process has been developed based on SOI technology of zone-melting recrystallization (ZMR). In order to obtain high-quality thin-film polycrystalline Si, it was found that the thickness of recrystallized Si film is an important factor. On the other hand, we have newly investigated the module process for the VEST cells. As a result, we have achieved 13.1% efficiency (Voc: 5.257 V, Isc: 3.43 A, FF:0.6695) with a module size of 924.2 cm2.
