Problems solved by technology

The diffusion process of solar cells is the key to the preparation of solar cells. The silicon wafer surface made by the existing diffusion process of solar cells has a higher doping concentration and a thicker dead layer, which reduces the minority carrier lifetime and leads to a lower short-circuit current.

Abstract

The invention relates to a crystalline silicon solar cell and a diffusion method therefor. The method comprises the following steps: 1, carrying out the heat preservation and oxidation of a silicon chip under the temperature from 800 DEG C to 820 DEG C under the condition of oxygen gas and nitrogen gas; 2, carrying out the heat preservation diffusion of the silicon chip under the temperature from 800 DEG C to 820 DEG C under the condition of diffused nitrogen, oxygen gas and nitrogen gas; 3, carrying out the heat preservation diffusion of the silicon chip under the temperature from 860 DEG C to 890 DEG C under the condition of nitrogen gas; 4, carrying out the heat preservation diffusion of the silicon chip under the temperature from 810 DEG C to 850 DEG C under the condition of oxygen gas and diffused nitrogen; 5, carrying out the heat preservation reaction of the silicon chip under the temperature from 810 DEG C to 850 DEG C under the condition of oxygen gas and nitrogen gas, wherein the diffused nitrogen is nitrogen containing phosphorus oxychloride. Moreover, the flow of the diffused nitrogen at step 4 is smaller than the flow of the diffused nitrogen at step 2. The method can increase the short-circuit current of the crystalline silicon solar cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cell manufacture, in particular to a crystalline silicon solar cell and a diffusion method thereof. Background technique [0002] A solar cell is a device that directly converts light energy into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect or photochemical effect. When non-renewable energy sources such as electricity, coal, and oil are running out frequently, and energy issues have increasingly become a bottleneck restricting the development of the international society and economy, more and more countries have begun to implement the "Sunshine Plan" to develop solar energy resources and seek new impetus for economic development. The diffusion process of solar cells is the key to the preparation of solar cells. The existing diffusion process of solar cells produces silicon wafers with high doping concentration on the surface and thick dead layer, which reduces the minority carrier lifetime and leads to ...
