Beschreibung
Within this thesis, the dispensing technology was enhanced to a high throughput alternative for industrial front side metallization of silicon solar cells. A detailed rheological characterization of applied silver pastes included the introduction of a new characterization method, the pendant thread approach. Multi-nozzle print heads were developed by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Dispensed contact geometries and solar cells were finally analysed in detail and compared to reference samples.
