Abstract

The invention provides front electrode silver paste of a crystalline silicon solar battery and a preparation method for the front electrode silver paste. The silver paste comprises the following components in reference to the total weight of the silver paste: 75 to 90 percent of silver powder, 1 to 3 percent of first glass powder, 1 to 5 percent of second glass powder and 6 to 25 percent of organic component, wherein the softening point of the first glass powder is 350 to 550 DEG C; the softening point of the second glass powder is 550 to 650 DEG C; and a difference between the softening point of the first glass powder and the softening point of the second glass powder is at least 70 DEG C. The invention also provides the preparation method for the electrode silver paste. The electrode silver paste can be sintered at a relatively wide sintering temperature range; and the obtained solar battery is low in series resistance and high in photoelectric conversion rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of crystalline silicon solar cells, in particular to a silver paste for a front electrode of a crystalline silicon solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Crystalline silicon solar cells have developed rapidly as the main solar photovoltaic power generation unit. The front side of the solar cell is the side that directly receives solar energy, and a multi-layer structure is used to achieve the widest receiving spectral line and the least light reflection consumption. The front side of conventional commercial crystalline silicon solar cells includes four main structures of silver electrode grid lines, non-conductive anti-reflection layer, n-type diffusion layer, and p-n junction region. The front electrode is an important part of crystalline silicon solar cells. The contact resistance between the electrode and n-type silicon, the conductivity of the electrode itself, and the aspect r...
