Early forms of silicon photovoltaic cells were very expensive because of diffic,l~ll.i(:s

the industrial preparation of sufficiently high-grade silicon. Very pure sisgh: (:rysl,it,ln
of silicon needed to be grown as cylindrical ingots, about 10 cm diameter, i l l ~ ~ ( I I L I .

Processing and fabrication problems still exist in the preparation of siilgl(\1'1,y:i
