Abstract
An improved large surface, quasi-monocrystalline silicon crystal bodies of the type used in solar cells. The bodies are produced by reacting at least the surface of a carbon fiber fabric with molten silicon under conditions of temperature and viscosity sufficient to cause the molten silicon to penetrate the fabric and produce silicon carbide at at least the surface of the fibers, and immediately thereafter coating the thus reacted fabric with metallic silicon from a second molten silicon bath to produce a silicon coating.
