Solar Solutions

Solar manufacturers require high-throughput laser processes that maintain precision across sensitive thin-film and crystalline materials. Lumentum pulsed lasers deliver clean scribing, layer removal, and structuring for advanced photovoltaic technologies.
Robotic equipment assembling blue solar cells on an automated production line in a clean manufacturing facility.

Overview

Lumentum ultrafast lasers enable fast, precise micromachining of delicate solar cell materials with minimal heat input and maximum repeatability. Whether scribing perovskite layers, ablating thin films, or isolating cell edges, our solutions are optimized for in-line production and scalable module designs — including tandem, xBC, and flexible formats. Engineered for global manufacturing environments, our pulsed lasers help boost solar cell efficiency, reduce material waste, and improve process reliability.

Applications:

• P1–P3 scribing for perovskite and thin-film solar modules

• Selective layer ablation on CIGS, CdTe, and transparent conductors

• Edge isolation and structuring for xBC and IBC cell architecture
