Definitions for "Single-Crystal Silicon"
Pure silicon is grown into crystalline only to be cut into very thin slices in order to make efficient state-of-the-art solar solar cells.
Many solar chargers use single-crystal solar cells as they are the most efficient cell on the market. Pure silicon is grown into crystalline ingots which are cut into thin slices to make solar electric cells. These cells are then soldered together to meet the charger's voltage and current requirements.
Material with a single crystalline formation. Many PV cells are made from single crystal silicon. (See Monocrystalline Cell)
