Overview of results
Plasma chemical etching for c-Si photovoltaics Structuring of TCO layers for TF-Photovoltaics Infection control – Process and materials studies Application demonstrator for infection control Energy storage – Process and materials R&D Application demonstrator for energy storage Interface technologies for durable adhesion Application demonstrator for interface technologies Cross-cutting equipment development
Integration
A key aspect of this “Integrating Project” is the potential benefit from cooperation cross-over boundaries of traditional areas. Whilst we have focused the R&D activities along the four “Impact Areas” being selected, we have established strong horizontal “cross-cutting” technology links based on the underpinning technologies for high throughput manufacturing.
Horizontal technology platforms to support “cross fertilisation” have been established in:
- atmospheric pressure CVD technologies
- atmospheric pressure plasmas
- etching and nucleation for 3D nano-structuring
-
surface analysis of 3D nano-structures including on-line technologies
- process monitoring & control, quality assessment.
