Polishing experiments show that chemomechanical treatment of multicrystalline silicon may cause electrical activation of dislocations, visible in electron-beam-induced current images. Mechanical polishing with A1203 in distilled water has no adverse effect. However, when traces of copper are added,
## Abstract The origin of the lower minority carrier lifetime in the border region of multicrystalline silicon (mcβSi) ingots was investigated. Based on minority carrier lifetime measurements and chemical analyses, distributions of defects and impurities were studied. It is found that the content o
