The silicon used to make mono-crystalline solar cells (also called single crystal cells) is cut from one large crystal. This means that the internal structure is highly ordered and it is easy for electrons to move through it. The silicon crystals are produced by slowly drawing a rod upwards out of a pool of molten silicon.
Elements allowing the silicon to exhibit n-type or p-type properties are mixed into the molten silicon before crystallization. You can identify mono-crystalline solar cells by the empty space in their corners where the edge of the crystal column was.
Since the overlap between the solar emission spectrum and Cr:Nd:YAG absorption spectrum can theoretically reach 40 %, there are more absorbed solar pump power available, large diameter ceramic rod can then be used to achieve more laser output power. The compound cavity is adopted to pump the 7 mm diameter Cr:Nd:YAG ceramic rod.
