Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of thin film solar cells, and discloses a manufacturing method for an Ag / Al core shell composite nanometer particle light trapping structure of a thin film solar cell. The Ag / Al core shell composite nanometer particle light trapping structure is manufactured through a method of combining magnetron sputtering and in situ annealing, and the magnetron sputtering method for manufacturing metal nanometer particles is simple, easy to conduct and good in repeatability. Therefore, Ag / Al core shell composite nanometer particles with different appearances, different core shell sizes and different surface coverage rates are manufactured easily by changing process parameters such as the thickness of a thin film and annealing temperature. By changing the process parameters, the optical performance of the nanometer particles can be effectively adjusted, and the extinction spectrum peak of the nanometer particles is widened. The extinction peak position of the nanometers is adjustable within the range of 350-700 mm, extinction spectrum half-width is obviously widened, and the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the solar cell can be largely improved when the manometer particles are used for manufacturing the light trapping structure of the amorphous silicon thin film solar cell.
