Abstract

Industry roadmaps have played a major role in the microelectronics industry in focussing manufacturers, researchers and equipment suppliers on common targets for future technology development. In 2010, the first roadmap for the photovoltaics industry was published, with the 6th major update published very recently on April 29. The key features of the new roadmap will be described. Particularly interesting are variations from the 2012 roadmap on which a similar seminar was presented, as these indicate refinements in thinking about the future of the industry based on the very rapid progress over the intervening 3 years.
