  • Abstract
    This paper focuses on two very promising silicon ribbon materials currently produced for research: ribbon growth on substrate (RGS) by ECN solar energy and molded wafer (MW) by GE Energy. Both materials are investigated in terms of solar cell processing and characterisation. First cell results of large area 10times10 cm2 RGS cells are presented as well as results from 5times5 cm2 cells processed from 8times12 cm2 RGS and 12.5times12.5 cm2 MW wafers
