Nickel sheet design for solar panels

What is nickel used for?

Due to its ability to withstand high temperatures and its conductivity, Nickel is often used as a plating for softer metals and is commonly used to provide hard-wearing plating for components, battery connectors and tags for the electronics industry.

What are back-sheet materials for photovoltaic modules?

Back-sheet materials for photovoltaic modules serve several purposes such as providing electrical insulation, environmental protection and structural support. These functions are essential for modules to be safe for people working near them and for the structures to which they are attached.

What grade of nickel do you use?

Get in touch with our team on: +44 (0) 1548 855 900 (UK & Europe) +1 607 239 6274 (US) +65 3157 0394 (Singapore) We use Nickel 200/201 grade, which conforms to the ASTM B162 standard. It’s commercially pure (99.6% and higher) with good mechanical properties, and is resistant to a range of corrosive media.

How is Ni/Cu/Sn electrode pattern defined in photolithography?

Photolithography was employed to define the Ni/Cu/Sn electrode pattern with a line width of 10 μm on the rear side of the devices. Following the photolithography process, the sample was immersed in a 2% hydrofluoric acid (HF) solution for 1 min to remove the surface oxide layer.

What temperature is nickel seed layer deposited on polysilicon?

Images of the Aeta 3D microscopic characterization of the nickel seed layer deposited on the polysilicon samples under temperatures of (c) 35°C and (d) 10°C. The nickel seed layer was deposited through electroplating at a current density of 20 mA/cm 2 for a duration of 2 min.

What is a custom nickel strip?

Custom nickel strips are becoming increasingly popular as miniaturization and power electronics drive specialized tag shapes, formats and load requirements. We can specialty etch or stamp custom-shaped tags, and provide Design For Manufacture (DFM) input to ensure high-yielding and repeatable production processes.
