Abstract

The invention discloses a method for forming textured microcrystalline silver on the surface of an amorphous silicon membrane. The method for forming the textured microcrystalline silver on the surface of the amorphous silicon membrane comprises the following steps that silver acetate and oxalic acid are dissolved to prepare a pecursor solution containing the silver acetate and the oxalic acid, wherein the mass ratio between the silver acetate and the oxalic acid is (3.2-13.1) : (0.1-0.5); the pecursor solution is coated on the surface of the amorphous silicon membrane; the coated amorphous silicon membrane is heated at 200-300 DEG C, and the textured microcrystalline silver is formed on the surface of the amorphous silicon membrane. Through the method, microcrystalline silver particles are induced to grow on the surface of the amorphous silicon membrane in situ, and the microcrystalline silver particles are mutually acted and are arranged irregularly, and gaps are formed among the microcrystalline silver particles. Therefore, the microcrystalline silver particles form a textured structure from the micro aspect, and the light absorption efficiency of the amorphous silicon membrane is improved. According to the method, a product can be obtained only by mixing, coating and heating raw materials, the process is simple and easy to control, the requirement for equipment is low, cost is saved, and large-scale production is easy to achieve.
