RED BANK, N.J. , Oct. 25, 2013 /CNW/ - Because Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK) has added a meaningful number of new shareholders recently, the company would like to update new and existing shareholders about their progress in bringing their solar energy applications to commercialization.
Focused on the photovoltaic/solar industry, Natcore currently holds 16 granted patents and 21 pending patents. While the company is focused on earth-bound solar applications, their proprietary technology could address applications as mundane as coatings on eyeglasses or the inside of water heaters to sophisticated tandem solar cell technology used on satellites.
Because it is important for a small company to remain focused, Natcore recently convened a meeting of their scientific team, including their advisory board, to their lab in Rochester, NY with one purpose in mind: to review all of their technologies and potential applications, identify which of these applications the solar industry wants and needs, and prioritize that list in terms of applications with the most direct path to commercialization.
Included in this solar brain trust were Dr. David Levy , Director of Research & Technology; Dr. Dennis Flood , Chief Technology Officer; Professor Andrew Barron , Charles W. Duncan, Jr. -Welch Professor, Professor of Materials Science at RICE University ; Dr. David Carlson , former Chief Technology of BP Solar and Dr. Daniele Margadonna , Chief Technology of MX Solar.
As a result of this meeting, Natcore identified three technologies (Black Silicon, Selective Emitter and Liquid Phase Deposition Passivation) needed by the industry that could reduce manufacturing costs, increase performance, or accomplish both. The company's technology could be instrumental in delivering these applications to the industry in a relatively short time frame.
Black Silicon is the etching of nano-sized pores into a solar cell surface either through gold or silver nanoparticles. The resulting surface acts as a replacement for the antireflective coating of traditional solar cells. Natcore's scientists have become quite adept in manufacturing traditional solar cells in their lab. They have also been able to manufacture black silicon cells with the same or similar efficiencies. They are now quantifying, both internally and through third-party studies, the cost savings that this application would bring to solar cell manufacturing by using black silicon instead of the traditional anti-reflective coating. They expect to have these numbers shortly.
Selective Emitter is a process whereby varying the thickness of doping on a cell will improve the energy output and/or reduce resistance. This application has the potential to increase efficiencies by 3%-5% relative to current standards. Natcore has demonstrated that their Liquid Phase Deposition films can provide a manufacturing-friendly process needed and wanted by the industry. They have also invented technology that allows us to easily pattern these films, a requirement for using them for a selective emitter.
Liquid Phase Deposition Passivation is Natcore's proprietary process that allows surface passivation without utilization of a CVD furnace. This potentially allows the passivation of some high efficiency solar cell designs in a simpler and more cost effective way than can be done currently.
These three technologies are stand-alone applications, although the common thread that makes them work is Natcore's Liquid Phase Deposition technology. Natcore feels that they will be able to begin the marketing phase with the Black Silicon application shortly.
In addition to these three shorter-term projects, Natcore is pursuing two major long-term applications in a tandem solar cell and a flexible solar cell. These last two technologies, although not as close to commercialization, could truly change the solar industry by nearly doubling the efficiency of today's best cells or cutting manufacturing costs by up to half.
The fact that China is no longer aggressively subsidizing their solar industry has created an opportunity for technology to bring much-needed advantages to an equal playing field. Incremental improvements in power output or incremental reductions in cost will have a great impact to the cell manufacturer, and Natcore's goal is to provide those improvements.
Another critical issue is the fact that manufacturing a solar cell involves highly toxic materials. At some point as the industry continues to mature, this issue must be addressed. Natcore's technology is relatively benign compared to current industry standards. Their Liquid Phase Deposition process eliminates the use of vacuum furnaces (offering significant energy savings) and silane gas (which is highly explosive and dangerous). Natcore feels that they are at the leading edge not only in improving efficiencies and reducing costs for the solar industry, but also in addressing the toxic waste issues inherent in current solar cell manufacturing.

Slash Solar Cell Production Costs by 23.5%
"Making plans to take our technology to market": Provini
? RED BANK, N.J. , Oct. 30, 2013 /CNW/ - An independent study has concluded that Natcore Technology's (NXT.V; NTCXF.PK; 8NT) black silicon technology could reduce silicon solar cell production costs by up to 23.5%.
The savings derive from a streamlining of the production process whereby a silicon wafer is processed into a black silicon solar cell.
To make solar cells, manufacturers typically acquire silicon wafers from an outside source. Since these wafers are cut from a large ingot, they usually have saw damage, which must be removed. To make a conventional solar cell, manufacturers must first remove the saw damage, then texturize the wafer surface, and then apply an antireflective coating.
To make a black silicon cell using Natcore's proprietary process, manufacturers would be able to replace the texture etch with a black silicon etch which in itself would create a highly effective antireflective coating.
Thus the most expensive part of the solar cell process – the equipment and material costs associated with high-temperature chemical vapor deposition of a silicon nitride antireflective coating – is completely eliminated.
Natcore asked analysts at the country's leading black silicon research facility to quantify the cost saving to be realized from omitting these steps. Using a "bottom up" manufacturing cost estimating methodology, the analysts calculate the production cost of a conventional silicon solar cell to be 17 cents per watt. In comparison, the study projected that cells made using Natcore's black silicon process would cost about 13 cents per watt.
The resulting savings of 3 cents /watt – 4 cents /watt represent a production cost reduction of up to 23.5%. "When solar companies are scrambling to save fractions of a cent, a saving of 3 cents – 4 cents per watt is momentous," says Dr. Dennis Flood , Natcore's co-founder and Chief Technology Officer.
In addition to the dramatic cost reduction, Natcore's test, which was conducted using monocrystalline silicon, had an important environmental benefit: it eliminated the need for silane, a highly toxic gas that combusts upon exposure to air. Natcore may plan a similar test using polycrystalline silicon at a later date.
"We knew there would be a cost saving," says Chuck Provini , Natcore's president and CEO. "We were surprised that it was so large. In fact, production-cost savings of this magnitude will likely overshadow any power gains of black silicon and will make Natcore's technology a must-have for the world's solar cell manufacturers.
"To put it into perspective," he notes, "a recent article by Shyam Mehta , senior solar analyst of GTM Research ('Technology not materials to drive down Chinese solar costs,' August 2013 ), predicts that Chinese manufacturers will be able to cut prices by only one cent in the next year or so. We could quadruple those savings in one fell swoop. We feel so optimistic about this development that we've begun making plans to take our technology to market."
"The full cost of a solar cell is the sum of two parts: the cost of the silicon wafer and the cost of the processing steps required to turn the wafer into a working solar cell," says Flood. "Cell manufacturers have no control over the cost of the silicon wafers they buy. As a result they are always looking for ways to control their production costs, but with a very important caveat: cost cutting must not lower cell performance in any way. Natcore's black silicon processing technology results in solar cells that meet or exceed the industry's requirement and at the same time provide a spectacular reduction in finished cell cost. Natcore's technology can easily be retrofitted into existing solar cell production lines and can just as easily be incorporated into a new line. Black silicon seems poised to become the industry's standard approach."

Natcore Technology Moves Toward Low-Temperature Production Of Solar Cells
15:05 02.12.13
PR Newswire
RED BANK, N.J., Dec. 2, 2013
RED BANK, N.J., Dec. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Two weeks after an independent study concluded that Natcore Technology's (NXT.V; NTCXF.PK; 8NT) black silicon technology could reduce silicon solar cell production costs by up to 23.5%, the company has taken additional steps that could further reduce production costs and hazardous effluents.
Black silicon technology can eliminate the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) of silicon nitride currently in solar cell production lines. Now Natcore scientists are developing laser processing to replace the high-temperature diffusion furnace in the solar cell production process, thus significantly reducing energy and chemical costs associated with the furnace. They have identified a versatile laser that the company plans to acquire for its R&D Center in Rochester, NY.
In typical solar cell manufacturing, the surface of the cell is doped in a process that involves heating the entire silicon wafer to a temperature in the range of 800 to 900°C. The process can damage the silicon, and wastes considerable energy. Laser doping works by firing a focused laser beam on the wafer. A small amount of dopant is initially sitting on the surface. The laser beam actually melts the silicon, which then re-solidifies, usually in less than one microsecond. The microsecond, however, is enough time to accomplish the doping.
Because the laser delivers energy to a very localized area, it would heat only that portion of the wafer that needs to be heated and can lead to more efficient solar cells. Furthermore, a laser would reduce the amount of energy required to produce solar cells, because it would no longer be necessary to heat the whole cell and the furnace around it.
The laser that is being considered by Natcore can be extensively manipulated so that optimum conditions can be found. Natcore is working with the laser producer to process an initial set of samples at their facility to accelerate Natcore's schedule.
To gain expertise in the use of lasers to process solar cells, Natcore has engaged Prof. Mool Gupta and his research group at the University of Virginia. Professor Gupta is a Langley Distinguished Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and is also the Founding Director of NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Lasers and Plasmas at the university.
"Between Prof. Gupta and Dr. Dave Carlson (a member of Natcore's Technology Advisory Board) we have two individuals who have deep experience in this field," says Dr. David Levy, Natcore's Director of Research & Technology. "For Natcore adding laser processing to our repertoire has important implications. First, it gets us in on the ground floor with a technology that we feel will represent the next generation of high-efficiency/low-cost solar cells. Second, it's an excellent fit with our black silicon technology.
"We are reinventing the way that solar cells are made," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "We are streamlining the process by removing costly steps and by eliminating dangerous and expensive chemicals, like silane and phosphorous oxychloride. We are making it a low-temperature process. Although we can't quantify it yet, we believe the result will be lower cost, higher efficiency and better quality. We believe that's what our licensees will want."

To gain expertise in the use of lasers to process solar cells, Natcore has engaged Prof. Mool Gupta and his research group at the University of Virginia. Professor Gupta is a Langley Distinguished Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and is also the Founding Director of NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Lasers and Plasmas at the university.
"Between Prof. Gupta and Dr. Dave Carlson (a member of Natcore's Technology Advisory Board) we have two individuals who have deep experience in this field," says Dr. David Levy, Natcore's Director of Research & Technology. "For Natcore adding laser processing to our repertoire has important implications. First, it gets us in on the ground floor with a technology that we feel will represent the next generation of high-efficiency/low-cost solar cells. Second, it's an excellent fit with our black silicon technology.
"We are reinventing the way that solar cells are made," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "We are streamlining the process by removing costly steps and by eliminating dangerous and expensive chemicals, like silane and phosphorous oxychloride. We are making it a low-temperature process. Although we can't quantify it yet, we believe the result will be lower cost, higher efficiency and better quality. We believe that's what our licensees will want."

RED BANK, N.J., Feb. 6, 2014
RED BANK, N.J., Feb. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Som N. Dahal, an electrical engineer with particular expertise in quantum dot nanostructures and silicon solar cell fabrication has joined Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK) as a Senior Research Scientist. He is based at Natcore's R&D Center in Rochester, NY.
Dr. Dahal had most recently been Staff Engineer/Scientist at Idalia Solar Technologies in Stony Brook, NY. There and in the solar power laboratories of the University of Delaware and Arizona State University, he gained extensive experience on material development, device modeling and characterization of III-V nanostructures and silicon solar cells including the laboratory setup and successful design, fabrication and characterization of high efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells.
Dr. Dahal's initial technical efforts at Natcore will be focused on two programs:
The realization of a manufacturable quantum dot solar cell. Scientists have made significant progress working on this project at Rice University under Natcore co-founder Prof. Andrew Barron. Now Natcore feels a full-time scientist will be required in order to develop a workable prototype.
The use of lasers to replace the high-temperature diffusion furnace in solar cell production. This will significantly reduce energy- related cost and enhance solar cell performance. Natcore expects to take delivery of its laser equipment in March.
Dr. Dahal is the author or co-author of four refereed journal articles and seven conference publications, nearly all of which are based on quantum dots. He has been an invited presenter at meetings of the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialist Conference.
Dr. Dahal earned his PhD in Electrical Engineering at the Fulton School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University, where his Research Advisor was Dr. Christiana Honsberg, Director of the Quantum Energy and Sustainable Solar Technologies Center (QESST). QESST is an NSF–DOE funded center. Dr. Dahal earned his MSc in Physics from Tribhuvan University in Katmandu, Nepal. With an enrollment of 144,000, Tribhuvan is one of the largest universities in the world.
"We need a full-time scientist to work on these two crucial projects," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "We cannot rely on part-time post-doctoral students to take us to our goals. We were fortunate to find Som. He's the perfect man for this job."
Dr. Dahal lives with his wife and two daughters in Pittsford, NY.

Natcore's Black Silicon Succeeds In First-Ever Solar Cell Production Line Test
15:05 05.05.14
PR Newswire
RED BANK, N.J., May 5, 2014
RED BANK, N.J., May 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the world's largest photovoltaic manufacturers has been the first to process Natcore Technology's black silicon wafers into working solar cells in an actual production line rather than in a laboratory setting.
The wafers were given a black silicon etch by scientists of Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK) using the company's proprietary process. The wafers were then shipped to the photovoltaic manufacturer, a company with annual revenue exceeding US$160 million and located in China's Hunan province.
Five batches of silicon wafers with a black silicon etch — prepared by Natcore's scientists at their R&D Center in Rochester, NY, under an exclusive license from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) — were supplied to the Chinese company for cell finishing and testing. Two of the batches were used as controls to help interpret results. Of the three test batches, one had a diffusion using phosphorous oxychloride (POCl3) applied by Natcore; the remaining test batches were diffused by the Chinese company. In all cases, the Chinese performed the final steps necessary to turn the wafers into solar cells and to test them.
"We put these cells through the Chinese manufacturer's process with essentially no modification to the process itself, except for the fact that certain steps were completely removed," says Dr. David Levy, Natcore's Director of Research & Technology. "And the removal of these steps projects to yield cost savings of as much as 23.5%
"We came out with an efficiency of 15.7% on this first trial. The Chinese team said they were very impressed, as we were, with this result. Conventional cells made in a similar industrial process do have efficiencies in the range of 17 to 19%. But considering the results of this first attempt, the Chinese engineers feel that we could easily push our black cell efficiency into the high teens.
"Cells made from wafers using our POCl3 diffusion outperformed the cells made with the Chinese diffusion, which was a bit of a surprise to us. The open circuit voltages of the black cells were in the ballpark of 0.63 V, very close to results obtained on conventional control cells that were made with a silicon nitride passivation layer. That speaks to the good passivation that can be obtained on our black etch," Levy concluded.
"I can't overstate the importance of this development," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "It demonstrates that our black silicon process is commercially viable in a real production line. It also shows that our process could be integrated into a production line without fear of contamination by the chemicals that our process uses.
"This is a huge step toward commercialization. It proves our earlier contention that our technology can easily be retrofitted into existing solar cell production lines and can just as easily be incorporated into a new line. Black silicon seems poised to become an important new approach for the industry."
The completed cells are being returned to Natcore for further testing.

RED BANK, N.J., May 5, 2014
RED BANK, N.J., May 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the world's largest photovoltaic manufacturers has been the first to process Natcore Technology's black silicon wafers into working solar cells in an actual production line rather than in a laboratory setting.
The wafers were given a black silicon etch by scientists of Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK) using the company's proprietary process. The wafers were then shipped to the photovoltaic manufacturer, a company with annual revenue exceeding US$160 million and located in China's Hunan province.
Five batches of silicon wafers with a black silicon etch — prepared by Natcore's scientists at their R&D Center in Rochester, NY, under an exclusive license from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) — were supplied to the Chinese company for cell finishing and testing. Two of the batches were used as controls to help interpret results. Of the three test batches, one had a diffusion using phosphorous oxychloride (POCl3) applied by Natcore; the remaining test batches were diffused by the Chinese company. In all cases, the Chinese performed the final steps necessary to turn the wafers into solar cells and to test them.
"We put these cells through the Chinese manufacturer's process with essentially no modification to the process itself, except for the fact that certain steps were completely removed," says Dr. David Levy, Natcore's Director of Research & Technology. "And the removal of these steps projects to yield cost savings of as much as 23.5%
"We came out with an efficiency of 15.7% on this first trial. The Chinese team said they were very impressed, as we were, with this result. Conventional cells made in a similar industrial process do have efficiencies in the range of 17 to 19%. But considering the results of this first attempt, the Chinese engineers feel that we could easily push our black cell efficiency into the high teens.
"Cells made from wafers using our POCl3 diffusion outperformed the cells made with the Chinese diffusion, which was a bit of a surprise to us. The open circuit voltages of the black cells were in the ballpark of 0.63 V, very close to results obtained on conventional control cells that were made with a silicon nitride passivation layer. That speaks to the good passivation that can be obtained on our black etch," Levy concluded.
"I can't overstate the importance of this development," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "It demonstrates that our black silicon process is commercially viable in a real production line. It also shows that our process could be integrated into a production line without fear of contamination by the chemicals that our process uses.
"This is a huge step toward commercialization. It proves our earlier contention that our technology can easily be retrofitted into existing solar cell production lines and can just as easily be incorporated into a new line. Black silicon seems poised to become an important new approach for the industry."
The completed cells are being returned to Natcore for further testing.

RED BANK, N.J., June 12, 2014
RED BANK, N.J., June 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- "Now that our black silicon has been demonstrated to be commercially viable in a solar cell production line, we plan to take quick advantage of this momentum," says Chuck Provini, president and CEO of Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK). "We want it to quickly achieve its full potential."
So Natcore has engaged the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems to augment what Natcore has accomplished in its own R&D Center and in the Chinese factory of one of the world's largest photovoltaic manufacturers. "We've been building a head of steam," says Provini. "We want to capitalize on it. We want to accelerate the delivery of black silicon's benefits —low cost, higher light absorption, higher efficiency — to the marketplace."
Based in Freiburg, Germany, Fraunhofer ISE conducts research on the technology needed to supply energy efficiently and on an environmentally sound basis. To this purpose, the Institute develops systems, components, materials and processes in the area of solar energy. The Institute's work ranges from fundamental scientific research relating to solar energy applications, through the development of production technology and prototypes, to the construction of demonstration systems. The Institute plans, advises and provides know-how and technical facilities as services.
Fraunhofer's initial work for Natcore will focus on solar cell passivation and efficiency of solar cells with black silicon surfaces. While Natcore has developed and patented novel passivation techniques, Fraunhofer will determine the effect of each of these, for example, on a cell's performance and production cost.
"In our recent test at a major Chinese solar cell production facility, we achieved an efficiency of 15.7% on our first trial. The technical staff at that facility said they were very impressed with that result. Conventional cells made in a similar industrial process do have efficiencies in the range of 17% to 19%. But considering the results of this first attempt, the Chinese engineers feel that we could easily push our black cell efficiency into the high teens," says Provini.
"We want to overdeliver on that promise. We want black silicon to be all that it can be."
Dr. David Levy, Director of Research & Technology, will be Natcore's Project Manager. Under the terms of the agreement with Fraunhofer, Natcore's intellectual property will be protected.

Natcore Technology Takes Steps to Form Australian Solar Panel Joint Venture
15:05 07.07.14
PR Newswire
RED BANK, N.J., July 7, 2014
RED BANK, N.J., July 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Having signed a Memorandum of Understanding in September 2013, Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; NTCXF.PK) and the Australian group Denzo Pty Limited have begun planning for Natcore Australia, a joint venture that would produce solar cells and solar panels in Australia, with Australia as the headquarters for this activity.
The joint venture would move initially with currently available technologies. Future technologies would be deployed as they become available. Natcore Australia would have exclusive access to Natcore's intellectual property portfolio in Australia. Financing for the venture would come from government and private sources.
The parties have begun to explore land, facility and labor costs; domestic and export sales potential; and availability of government assistance at local, state and federal levels.
Denzo has narrowed the future site for the facility to one of two locations: the city of Orange, NSW, which is about 250 km west of Sydney; and Wellcamp West Brisbane Airport in Toowoomba, Queensland, which is 127 km west of Brisbane. Wellcamp West Brisbane Airport is the first privately built major public airport in Australia. The company that is building the airport is also building a large business park.
Natcore has submitted factory layouts for a 30 MW/year – 100 MW/year solar cell production facility and is preparing equipment recommendations on a "best of breed" basis, i.e., they are putting forward items that would be selected from manufacturers in Germany, China and elsewhere around the world. Each piece of equipment would be the best in its category according to criteria agreed upon with Denzo (e.g., most efficient, cleanest operating, lowest cost). Natcore would not receive a commission or mark-up on the equipment.
"We would have no biases or no conflicts of interest in making appropriate decisions," says Natcore President and CEO Chuck Provini.
"We sought out Natcore after careful due diligence on solar technologies throughout the world," says Ken Mathews, Managing Director of Denzo. "We've already attracted potential industry partners, and Denzo is confident of success using the Natcore technology."
"In addition to being a free-standing company in which Natcore will be a partner, the joint venture will also be our customer," says Provini. "Natcore Australia will be a licensee of Natcore Technology. They'll pay royalties for our technology, and they'll buy our chemicals."
Denzo was started in Australia in 1965 as a private company with auto service stations and retail tire outlets. In 1982, the company was converted to Denzo Pty Limited, as Trustee for the Mathews No. 1 Family Trust. The company is headquartered in Terrigal, NSW.
Denzo Pty Limited has operated in Australia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, China, South Korea and the United States. The company has been involved in alternative fuels (LNG, solar), import (cars, yachts) and export, manufacturing (gas meters, automotive plastics), and retail sales.
Denzo has recently signed a Terms Sheet to take over a listed public company on the Australian Stock Market, as an option.
