End-cooling allows faster growth and yields single-crystal ribbons. Improvement in edge-defined film-fed process for growing silicon ribbons increases speed of growth and improves quality of silicon product. Also produces silicon sheets, webs, or boules. Cold shoes cool melt at ends of emerging sheet. Since solidification at ends now occurs before end menisci reach maximum height, ribbon drawn substantially faster.
