Silicon Utilization in renewable energy generation

The objective of this study is the availability of utilizing the silicon in production of renewable energy which is called clean energy. Since Egypt is sunny all over the year hence, it must be produce a power from the sun by solar systems. In many applications and situations the solar system is the unique solution from the cost point of view. In this road map, we try to show the way to solar energy and the existing capabilities. In Egypt second nuclear research reactor, it has the ability to produce silicon ingots (float zone) up to 6 inches diameter with very high quality which can be used in fabrication of high class electronic devices and high power electronic devices. The efficiency of the solar cell depends on the wafer material weather poly-crystalline or mono-crystalline. This paper describes the recipe how to produce a float zone silicon wafer for solar cell use. The recipe includes the calculation of the neutron dose, decay time etching, annealing and characterization of electronic parameters
