Honeywell Products for Crystalline Si Solar Cells

The materials Honeywell supplies for the production of c-Si solar cells enable the cells to better collect, convert and store sun-generated electricity.

Printable Dopants Leveraging 30-plus years of expertise with spin-on and spray-on dopants, Honeywell has developed a family of doping materials that are enabling $/Wp reduction through advanced c-Si architectures. Customiza­tion is available, along with industry-leading technical support worldwide. Applications include selective emitter as well as other advanced c-Si architectures.
 
Chemicals are used in the main production processes for solar cells and are customized to meet the requirements of the photovoltaic industry. A key chemical for etchant processes is Hydrofluoric Acid, and among the chemicals we supply is a specially-designed PV-quality hydrofluoric acid called Puranal®. Honeywell has the experience and expertise in the development of packaging technologies, providing a full range of container options, able to deliver any type of packaging up to ISO-tanks. In addition, our specialists are able to help customers plan storage and recommend save handling procedures for our materials.
 
Thermocouples provide precise temperature control and enable higher process efficiency in Si ingot and photovoltaic cell manufacturing. Honeywell is the world leader in precision thermocouple manufacturing and calibration; all of our thermocouples are precision-calibrated in our state-of-the-art NlST-traceable system.
