    Abstract: Processing equipment for the metallization of a plurality of semiconductor workpieces. A controlled atmospheric non-oxidizing gas region comprises at least two enclosed deposition zones, the controlled atmospheric non-oxidizing gas region is isolated from external oxidizing ambient. A temperature controller adjusts the temperature of the semiconductor workpiece in each of the at least two enclosed deposition zones. Each of the enclosed deposition zones comprising at least one spray gun for the metallization of the semiconductor workpiece. A transport system moves the semiconductor workpiece through the controlled atmospheric non-oxidizing gas region. A batch carrier plate carries the semiconductor workpiece through the controlled atmospheric non-oxidizing gas region. The controlled atmospheric non-oxidizing gas region further comprises a gas-based pre-cleaning zone.

    Abstract: Solar cell array solutions including monolithic solar cell arrays and fabrication methods. A first patterned cell metallization contacts base and emitter regions of each of a plurality of solar cells having a light receiving frontside and a backside. An electrically insulating continuous backplane layer is attached to the backside of the solar cells and covers the first cell metallization of each of the solar cells. Via holes through the continuous backplane layer provide access to the first cell metallization. A second cell metallization is connected to the first cell metallization of each of the solar cells and electrically interconnects the solar cells in the array.

    Abstract: This disclosure enables high-productivity controlled fabrication of uniform porous semiconductor layers (made of single layer or multi-layer porous semiconductors such as porous silicon, comprising single porosity or multi-porosity layers). Some applications include fabrication of MEMS separation and sacrificial layers for die detachment and MEMS device fabrication, membrane formation and shallow trench isolation (STI) porous silicon (using porous silicon formation with an optimal porosity and its subsequent oxidation). Further, this disclosure is applicable to the general fields of photovoltaics, MEMS, including sensors and actuators, stand-alone, or integrated with integrated semiconductor microelectronics, semiconductor microelectronics chips and optoelectronics.
