DOEs for Photovoltaic Cells

Lasers have been widely used for the production of traditional solar cells, such as PERC type PV cells. The laser is used to open the oxidation layers on the backside in what is known as the Laser Contact Opening (LCO) process, often employing top hat beam shaping to obtain a uniform ablation profile with fixed … Continue reading

Holo/Or’s Modified Bessel Objectives

In the last few years,Β Holo/Or has seen increased interest in Through Glass Via (TGV) laser drilling,Β using ultra short pulse lasers. Holo/Or offers a variety of beam shaping objectives for integrators interested in developing theirΒ TGVΒ process. Holo/Or’s DeepCleaveΒ modified Bessel objectives generate a waist of 1.8 Β΅mΒ over a depth of focus that can be as little as 80 … Continue reading
