abstract = {The low cost and high quality of multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) based on directional solidification has become the main stream in photovoltaic (PV) industry. The mc-Si quality affects directly the conversion efficiency of solar cells, and thus, it is crucial to the cost of PV electricity. With the breakthrough of crystal growth technology, the so-called high-performance mc-Si has increased about 1\% in solar cell efficiency from 16.6\% in 2011 to 17.6\% in 2012 based on the whole ingot performance. In this paper, we report our development of this high-performance mc-Si. The key ideas behind this technology for defect control are discussed. With the high-performance mc-Si, we have achieved an average efficiency of near 17.8\% and an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 633 mV in production. The distribution of cell efficiency was rather narrow, and low-efficiency cells (<17\%) were also very few. The power of the 60-cell module using the high-efficiency cells could reach 261 W as well. },
