Abstract

The invention provides a multijunction multi-laminated thin film solar cell and a production method thereof. A multijunction multi-laminated structure can be selected from six related materials to form two-junction, three-junction, four-junction, five-junction and six-junction thin film solar cells. By adopting a laser crystallizing process, a plasma-doped process and a PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) transition layer process, the interface performances among various layers can be improved, for example, the interface resistance among various laminations can be reduced and the crystallizing performances of thin film materials can be enhanced; and by using a hydrogen treatment process, the stability of the performances of various layers of materials can be reduced and the light transmittance and the conductivity of transparent conductive thin film materials and the interfaces can be improved. The conversion efficiency of the battery is expected to reach 12-18 percent and the battery has better stability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell, especially a silicon-based thin-film solar cell structure and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Since the French scientist AE. Becquerel discovered the photoelectric conversion phenomenon in 1839, the first solar cell based on semiconductor selenium was born in 1883. Russell obtained the first solar cell patent (US.2,402,662) in 1946, and its photoelectric conversion efficiency was only 1%. It was not until 1954 that Bell Laboratories' research discovered that doped silicon-based materials have high photoelectric conversion efficiency. This research laid the foundation for the modern solar cell industry. In 1958, the Haffman Power Company of the United States installed the first solar panel on a satellite in the United States, and its photoelectric conversion efficiency was about 6%. Since then, the research and production of solar cells on monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline...
