Abstract

The invention provides an n-type silicon solar cell, a preparation method thereof, and an aluminum evaporation diffusion apparatus. The preparation method of the n n-type silicon solar cell comprises the following steps: depositing an aluminum film on a silicon chip through a heat evaporation method, or by means of a diffusion mask, performing selective deposition on the surface of the silicon chip, then heating the silicon chip to realize aluminum diffusion to form a pn junction, and preparing the n-type silicon solar cell. The invention also discloses an aluminum evaporation diffusion apparatus for preparing the n-type silicon solar cell. The apparatus is simple, reasonable and compact in structure. The apparatus is provided with diffusion containers and a silicon chip array bearing frame. By use of the apparatus, the aluminum film can be deposited on one or more silicon chips at a time. According to the invention, by use of a diffusion technology of an aluminum heat evaporation pool, aluminum can be diffused at a quite low temperature, damage caused by high-temperature boron diffusion in a conventional n-type silicon solar cell process to the silicon chip and impurity pollution brought by use of an aluminum slurry screen printing method can be avoided. Therefore, the n-type solar cell, the method and the apparatus are suitable for batch production in a solar cell industry.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to semiconductor manufacturing technology, in particular to an n-type silicon solar cell, its preparation method and an aluminum evaporation and diffusion device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, n-type silicon solar cells have become more and more popular due to their superior electrical properties, long minority carrier lifetime, easy passivation, high tolerance to impurities, and high conversion efficiency. The pn junction of traditional n-type silicon cells is realized by the diffusion of boron, for example: the IBC structure silicon solar cells of SunPower of the United States, and the Panda silicon cells of Yingli in China. However, the diffusion of boron in silicon needs to be carried out at a high temperature above 900°C, which often leads to damage to the silicon wafer. Moreover, the harmful B-O recombination centers generated during the high-temperature sintering process will lead to a decrease in the mino...
