Resumen: Facing the shortage of hyper-pure Si due to the exponential growth of the photovoltaic (PV) market at the beginning of the last decade, R&D institutions and Si producers started to develop and apply alternative ways of Si purification for PV applications. The so-called solar grade silicon (SoG-Si) requires lower purity levels than electronic grade Si and therefore, gives space for cost reduction of PV solar energy. However, no standardized specifications of SoG-Si have been established so far and the adaptation of the solar cell fabrication process to lower-quality Si materials remains a c...
