Background technique [0002] In 1839, French scientist BECQUEREL found that light can cause potential differences between different parts of semiconductor materials.That is "photovoltaic effect".In 1954, American scientists Chabin and Pilson first made a practical monocrystalline silicon solar cell in Bell Labs in the United States, which was born with practical photovoltaic power generation technology that converts solar light into electrical energy.After more than half a century of technology improvement, crystalline silicon solar batteries are still 80-90%of solar power generation.However, improving the conversion efficiency of crystal silicon solar cells, reducing costs has always been t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the screen printing technology has the following defects: 1. There is a layer of non-conductive glass between the sintered silver grid electrode and silicon, and the contact resistance is very large; 2. The organic matter in the silver paste evaporates during the sintering process, making the silver electrode It is loose and porous, and the volume resistance of silver electrodes is large; 3. The grid lines of screen printing are generally larger than 80 μm, and it is difficult to reduce the line width, and one printing can only produce a line height of less than 25 μm. It will cause the grid line to be further widened, so the aspect ratio is small, and the wider line width reduces the effective working area of ​​the solar cell, so the shadow loss is large; 4. The silver material itself is expensive

Using lithographic slotting requires photolithography, chemical directional etching or mechanical etching slotting to provide a mask for electroplating, chemical plating or light-induced electroplating, although it solves the problem of large contact resistance and bulk in screen printing. The shortcomings of large resistance and large shadow loss, but the process is too complicated, the production cost is too high, and the equipment production efficiency is low, so it has not been widely used in the industry.

[0005]In short, the existing solar cell production technology is difficult to overcome the shortcomings of large contact resistance, large volume resistance, large shadow loss, high cost, and complicated production process. The substrate only relies on high-temperature sintering to form an insulating glass body to maintain contact. Under vibration or long-term exposure to sunlight, due to lattice mismatch, it is easy to cause metal grid lines to delaminate and cause poor contact, which affects the capture of photogenerated electrons and affects the conversion efficiency of solar cells.
