  • WET HIGH POTENTIAL QUALIFICATION TOOL FOR SOLAR CELL FABRICATION
    Publication number: 20110012635
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention generally provide methods and an apparatus for processing and qualifying a formed photovoltaic device to assure that the formed photovoltaic device meets desired quality and industry electrical standards. Embodiments of the present invention may also provide a photovoltaic device, or solar cell device, production line that is adapted to form a thin film solar cell device by accepting an unprocessed substrate and performing multiple deposition, material removal, cleaning, bonding, and testing steps to form a complete functional and tested solar cell device. The solar cell device production line, or system, is generally an arrangement of processing modules and automation equipment used to form solar cell devices that are interconnected by automated material handling system.
