Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a colorful film for protecting a solar cell thin grid line metal electrode by adopting a mask. In the method, after a solar cell is prepared, a mask is utilized to cover a main grid line metal electrode on the front surface of the solar cell, a film is coated on the area which is not covered by the mask for the second time, and a dielectric layer for protecting the thin grid line metal electrode is prepared to form a structure comprising the dielectric layer, the thin grid line metal electrode and a passivation layer. The method can protect the thin grid line metal electrode against easy oxidation, and the main grid line metal electrode can be normally connected by welding rods. The passivation effect of the front surface can be enhanced through optimizing the passivation layer; the reflectivity of the front surface of the solar cell can be reduced and color regulation can be realized through regulating the dielectric layer; and characters, figures, graphics and the like can be displayed on the front surface of the solar cell through changing a mask pattern. In addition, the secondary film coating method is convenient to be in butt joint with the traditional crystalline silicon solar cell preparation process and is easy for industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a color thin film for protecting fine grid line metal electrodes of solar cells by using a mask. Background technique [0002] At present, the conventional process for preparing crystalline silicon solar cells generally uses PECVD to plate a single layer of silicon nitride (SiN) on the front surface of crystalline silicon solar cells. x ), and then print a layer of silver paste on the silicon nitride by screen printing, make the silver paste burn through the silicon nitride by sintering, and form an ohmic contact with silicon to prepare the front electrode. Since the metal grid is located on the top layer of the solar cell and is in direct contact with the air, during the transportation of the battery from the battery manufacturer to the component manufacturer, the front silver electrode metal grid may be oxidized by oxygen in the air due to...
