What is a monocrystalline solar panel?

Monocrystalline panels: Made from a single, pure crystal structure, they often boast the highest efficiency and space-saving capabilities. They can be identified by their consistent dark look and rounded edges. ZEN Energy’s panel of choice.

How are monocrystalline solar panels made?

Monocrystalline solar panels are made from one continuous crystal structure, which is where they get their name. They’re manufactured using the Czochralski process to create a large, single-crystal silicon ingot. The silicon ingot is then sliced into thin wafers to make solar cells.

What is a crystalline solar cell?

A typical solar cell consists of a p n junction formed in a semiconductor material similar to a diode. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the cross section through a crystalline solar cell. It consists of a 0.2–0.3mm thick mono- properties formed by ‘‘doping’’ it with other impurities (e.g., boron and phosphorus).
