The application provides a
crystalline silicon solar cell, a preparation method and application thereof. The
crystalline silicon solar cell comprises a substrate, a thin film layer and an
electrode which are sequentially arranged. The thin film layer comprises a first thin film area and a second thin film area. The thickness of the first thin film area is greater than that of the second thin film area. The
electrode is arranged on the second thin film area and forms a contact with the substrate. By reducing the thickness of the second thin film area which is in contact with the
electrode, the
contact resistance between the electrode and the substrate is improved, the recombination in the electrode area is reduced, the average
open circuit voltage is increased, and the optical performance and the improvement window of the
passivation performance of the first thin film area which is not in contact with the electrode are increased. The
crystalline silicon solar cell solves the problem that the electrode
ablation capacity is incompatible with the thin film composition and thickness, effectively improves the
cell efficiency, and the preparation method is compatible with the
screen printing high-temperature
sintering process, and large-scale
mass production at low cost can be realized.
