Polysilicon
Polysilicon is a hyper pure form of silicon. It is multi-crystalline, high purity silicon, greater than 99.999% pure, used as the starting material for the growth of high purity single crystal silicon to be used for integrated circuits, other semiconductor devices, and solar cells. It is in the form of chunk, granular, powder and chip. Due to its semiconductor-like material properties, polysilicon is used as feedstock material in most solar energy applications.
