摘要:
A system for the laser scribing of semiconductor devices includes a laser light source operable to selectably deliver laser illumination at a first wavelength and at a second wavelength which is shorter than the first wavelength. The system further includes a support for a semiconductor device and an optical system which is operative to direct the laser illumination from the light source to the semiconductor device. The optical system includes optical elements which are compatible with the laser illumination of the first wavelength and the laser illumination of the second wavelength. In specific instances, the first wavelength is long wavelength illumination such as illumination of at least 1000 nanometers, and the second wavelength is short wavelength illumination which in specific instances is 300 nanometers or shorter. By the use of the differing wavelengths, specific layers of the semiconductor device may be scribed without damage to subjacent layers. Also disclosed are specific scribing processes.

摘要:
Darkening of silicone containing materials caused by exposure to ultraviolet illumination is prevented or reversed by exposure of those materials to an atmosphere containing a reactive species, which may comprise activated oxygen. The activated oxygen may be generated by ultraviolet irradiation of the silicone material in an oxygen containing atmosphere. In other instances, the activated oxygen may comprise ozone or some other activated oxygen species. In yet other instances, the reactive species may comprise an oxygen containing material such as nitrous oxide or nitrates. It may also comprise other materials such as halogens, atomic hydrogen, protons or the like. The treatment may be applied prior to ultraviolet exposure so as to prevent or minimize darkening, or it may be applied after darkening has occurred for purposes of reversing the darkening. Also disclosed are silicone materials which have been treated so as to make them resistant to ultraviolet induced darkening, as well as photovoltaic devices which have such silicone materials coated thereupon.

A metal and oxygen material such as a transparent electrically conductive oxide material is electro deposited onto a substrate in a solution deposition process. Process parameters are controlled so as to result in the deposition of a high quality layer of material which is suitable for use in a back reflector structure of a high efficiency photovoltaic device The deposition may be carried out in conjunction with a masking member which operates to restrict the deposition of the metal and oxygen material to specific portions of the substrate. In particular instances the deposition may be implemented in a continuous, roll-to-roll process. Further disclosed are semiconductor devices and components of semiconductor devices made by the present process, as well as apparatus for carrying out the process.

摘要:
A back reflector for a photovoltaic device includes an electrically conductive, textured layer and a reflective layer conformally disposed on the textured layer. The reflector may include a protective layer atop the reflective layer. The materials of the reflector are selected to be non-reactive under conditions encountered in the manufacture and use of the photovoltaic device.
