Abstract

The grain evolution of multicrystalline Si was studied using the ingot grown from microcrystalline template. The grain shape evolution and width increase are not monotonic but may have 3 stages. On the other hand, the grain boundary (GB) analysis suggests that there exit 2 reactions, namely random GB annihilation at the initial stage and Σ3 generation and annihilation at the steady state.
