Problems solved by technology

However, during the sintering process, this kind of oxide reacts with the glass, making the viscosity of the glass smaller, and it is easy to form a glass insulating layer between the silicon surface and the electrode, resulting in an increase in the series resistance of the battery and a decrease in the fill factor. Therefore, the conversion efficiency of the battery is reduced

Abstract

The present invention relates to a conductive paste for the front surface of the solar energy battery,l comprising an electric phase metal powder, a glass phase and an organic phase; the present invention is provided with zero point zero five to one percent additive on base of the total weight of the conductive paste; the additive is TiO2 powder or SnO2 powder. The front electrode of the solar energy battery adopts the conductive paste, so the present invention not only enhances the peeling mechanical intensity of the front electrode of the battery, but also enhances the filling factor FF of the battery, reduces the resistance in series and enhances the light conversion efficiency; and the present invention makes the battery have a good balance of the synthesis electric capability and the mechanical capability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a conductive paste for front electrodes of solar cells. Background technique [0002] In the solar cell manufacturing process, it is necessary to + An ohmic contact electrode is formed on the type semiconductor. There are two methods for forming ohmic contact electrodes, one is to use vacuum evaporation method, and the other is to use screen printing method. In order to reduce the production cost of solar cells and realize industrialization and large-scale production, screen printing methods are generally used. [0003] The screen printing method is used to prepare the front electrode of the solar cell by using a thick film conductive paste, coating it on the silicon substrate, drying it, and then sintering it in an infrared sintering furnace to make it metallized to form an electrode. [0004] The conductive paste for screen printing consists of conductive phase, glass phase and organic carrier phase. The conductive phase ...
