Oxidation treatment process of crystalline silicon solar cell

Abstract

The invention discloses an oxidation treatment process of a crystalline silicon solar cell, comprising the following steps: (1) heating dry oxygen pre-oxidation: a silicon wafer is pushed into an oxidation tube, the temperature is increased to 850-900 DEG C, dry oxygen is introduced, oxidation is carried out, and a silicon dioxide layer is formed on the surface of the silicon wafer, wherein the reaction time is 100-600 seconds; (2) high temperature chlorine-doped oxidation: dry oxygen is continuously introduced, the temperature is increased to 900-950 DEG C, trichloroethane is introduced, and the condition is maintained for 1500-2500 seconds; (3) constant temperature propulsive oxidation: the temperature in step (2) is maintained, the introduction of trichloroethane is stopped, dry oxygen is continuously introduced, and the condition is maintained for 300-800 seconds; and (4) temperature reduction: the introduction of dry oxygen is stopped, and the silicon wafer is taken out from the oxidation tube. In the oxidation treatment process provided by the invention, the processing time of the whole process is greatly reduced, and the problems that resource waste is caused by long-time oxidation and the capacity is reduced are avoided, thus having positive realistic significance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an oxidation treatment process for crystalline silicon solar cells, belonging to the field of crystalline silicon solar cell manufacturing.

[0005] However, the existing dry oxygen oxidation rate is very slow, and it needs to be kept at a high temperature of 900-1200°C in the oxidation tube for more than 2 hours, and at the same time, a large flow of dry oxygen is introduced to obtain the required process thickness.

Obviously, this long-term oxidation treatment proc
