Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a device and a method for continuous production of porous silicon layers (single or multiple layers) on workpieces made of silicon or workpieces with a silicon coating. The method according to the invention is thereby based on a one-sided etching method, the workpiece being guided horizontally, by means of a transport device, with the front side of the workpiece to be etched, past at least one etching chamber, comprising an electrolyte and a cathode. This method can be used in particular for the production of PV cells.
