Having recently teamed with process measurement specialist, Aurora Solar the order includes Aurora’s resistance measurement system and software. 

SEMCO noted that the customer had previously used its LYDOP-POCl3 systems, used for diffusion to realize the p-n junction and build-in voltage on solar cells.

N-type monocrystalline and bifacial solar cells are expected to gain increased acceptance by high-efficiency focused solar cell and module producers.
