Photovoltaic

Photovoltaic Overcoming Industry Challenges with Cutting-Edge Metrology Solutions Advanced Measurement solutions for maximum yield and efficiency In the last years the overflow of global competitors and a fast-growing global production capacity has led to a dramatically decrease of system prices and put pressure especially on solar cell and module producers. Hence it becomes more and more important to convince customers by a high-quality standard and to further reduce prices. Furthermore, new technologies as TopCon or even Silicon-Perovskite tandem solar cells arise with new challenges for metrology and characterization. Freiberg Instruments metrology solutions are ideal to help increasing the yield and the quality of the produced solar cells as well as characterizing new materials and processes. With them the material quality can be assessed right at the beginning of the production chain and be measured after every production step, from the ingot to the finished solar cell. Key Advantages High measurement speed and sensitivity unsurpassed sensitivity due to our advanced microwave detection system, possibility to measure thin films or solar cells as well as wafers and ingots with a high measurement speed High Accuracy and reproducibility repeatability of below 1% for lifetime measurements and below 3% for resistivity measurements Improvement of material yield Determine the exact cutting criteria for top and bottom of an ingot, incoming inspection of wafers in 1 s Versatile tools for ingots, wafers and even thin films We offer tools for all kinds of different sample geometries from large ingots (up to 850 mm length) to thin films (1 µm thickness and less) Inline metrology for wafers and ingots Lifetime measurements are already a standard method for material quality control in the photovoltaic industry. Taking it one step further, our inline metrology tools allow to sort out low quality parts of the ingot, at as-grown wafers and after every process step. Investigation of surface and bulk quality The separation of bulk and surface quality is one of the main challenges of lifetime measurements. Freiberg Instruments offers a variety of different wavelength with different penetration depth and pulse length as well as estimations for bulk lifetime and surface recombination velocity.

Marking and measuring of in-plane directions

Marking and measuring of in-plane directions with Omega-scan Efficient Crystal Orientation and In-Plane Direction Measurement with Omega Scan The Omega Scan provides a complete crystal orientation in a single measurement, allowing for the direct identification of in-plane directions. This feature is particularly useful for marking in-plane directions or verifying the orientation of flats and notches. During wafer implantation and photolithography, the flat or notch acts as an orientation marker. After processing, the wafer contains hundreds of chips that must be separated by cleaving. Correct alignment of these chips with a lattice plane is crucial for easy cleaving, making it necessary to check the position of the flat or notch. This requires precise measurement of in-plane components. Unlike the more complex or imprecise Theta Scan method, Omega Scan accurately measures the complete orientation in one go. The system also allows for easy adjustment of any in-plane direction to a specific position defined by the user, simplifying tasks such as flat orientation marking. For high-throughput applications, automated measurement solutions are available, ensuring maximum efficiency.

NLO Materials: Crystal Quality & Optical Axis Orientation

NLO Materials Crystal Quality & Optical Axis Orientation Non-Linear Optical (NLO) Materials Unlike typical inorganic metals, semiconductors, and insulators, NLO materials feature more complex crystal structures with lower symmetry. This structure creates a highly anisotropic environment for light passing through the crystal, resulting in unique optical properties. These crystals are typically cut into small bars, with millimeter-scale dimensions, to serve as active components in frequency multipliers and optical parametric oscillators. Surface quality analysis of these small crystals can reveal structural defects and cracks. The large unit cells of NLO materials present a challenge for measurement, but the Omega Scan method has been successfully adapted to determine key parameters for important NLO materials like LBO, BBO, and TeO 2 . Special modifications to the Omega/Theta design enable NLO capabilities across a variety of materials, ensuring precise and reliable analysis.

Application

Crystal quality

Measuring Crystal Quality Through XRD Reflection Analysis Assessing Crystal Quality via XRD Reflection Analysis Crystal quality cannot be directly measured, but several physical properties can be assessed and compared to standards for pure, homogeneous crystals. One such property is the half-width of an X-ray diffraction (XRD) reflection. The regularity of the crystalline lattice defines its quality. Imperfections such as defects, dislocations, and contaminants are inherent in every lattice. Additional discontinuities, like grain boundaries and cracks, also exist. These imperfections introduce local strain within the surrounding lattice, which can be detected by recording the rocking curve of an X-ray reflection. By analyzing the geometric properties of the incident beam and the resulting rocking curve half-width, the surface quality of the crystal can be effectively characterized.

Quartz Bar Aligning

Quartz Bar Aligning Pre-alignment of bars | Preparation for sawing process Precision Alignment & Efficient Sawing of Quartz Bars Quartz bars serve as the raw material for cutting high-quality blanks with precise temperature characteristics. Proper pre-alignment is essential to ensure optimal performance. To achieve accurate alignment in the saw, each quartz bar undergoes an individual X-ray measurement, as no two bars are identical. Once aligned, the bar is securely fixed using UV-curable adhesive in a process known as "UV curing." For maximum efficiency, multiple quartz bars are processed simultaneously. By stacking up to 30 bars in a single sawing step, productivity is significantly enhanced while maintaining precision and quality.
