Purification of silicon for photovoltaic applications

Looking at the commercial wafers available nowadays [3], it appears that the very low level of impurities acceptable from Ref. [1] does not ever apply to today''s materials (mainly multicrystalline), and modern cell processes. For example (Fig. 1), the molybdenum or tungsten content of ingots should, according to [1], reduce the efficiency …
