Problems solved by technology

[0005] The printability is not good, and the phenomenon of network blocking and dry network is easy to appear during the printing process; after sintering, the contact resistance with the silicon wafer is high, and aluminum beads and aluminum packets are easy to be produced. Usually, the conversion efficiency of the cell is 12% to 15%. The conversion efficiency is low, the open circuit voltage is only about 0.5V, and the warpage of the cell is as high as 1.8mm, which seriously affects the overall performance of the cell
