Image Gallery: SWIR Image - Solar Cell Inspection



This image was taken with the Goodrich SU320KTS camera, which collects the photoemission from within the thickness of the cell.  Inspection of the wafers with SWIR permits detecting defects, hidden cracks or saw marks inside or on the opposite side of the wafer due to silicon’s transparency at SWIR wavelengths beyond 1.2 µm.
