Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon-based heterojunction cell and a preparation method of TiNx barrier layers of the silicon-based heterojunction cell. The preparation method comprises the following steps: depositing an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer and a P-type amorphous silicon film layer on the front surface of an N-type silicon substrate, and depositing an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer and an N-type amorphous silicon film layer on the reverse surface of the N-type silicon substrate; depositing transparent conductive oxide films on the P-type amorphous silicon film layer and the N-type amorphous silicon film layer; and depositing the TiNx barrier layers on the transparent conductive oxide films by using low-temperature magnetron sputtering. Adhesive force of Cu and the transparent conductive oxide films is increased, followed-up packaging of heterojunction solar cells is facilitated, diffusion of copper can further be stopped effectively, the TiNx barrier layers in a non-electrode grid line region are easily corroded by a solution, the TiNx barrier layers are low in resistivity, and the thickness of the TiNx barrier layers is easy to control.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing solar cells, in particular to the manufacturing technology of heterojunction cells. Background technique [0002] In solar cell technology, compared with traditional P-type monocrystalline / polycrystalline solar cells, silicon-based heterojunction solar cells are the most attractive due to their high conversion efficiency, simple process flow and low temperature coefficient , especially forming copper metal grid lines on the surface of the conductive oxide of the heterojunction solar cell by means of a copper interconnection plating method. Since Cu diffuses rapidly in Si at a very low temperature, it affects the minority carrier lifetime and leakage current of the device, resulting in a decrease in device performance and reliability. Even when the content of Cu is very low, the electrical performance of the device will be degraded. Therefore, the selection of barrier layer material and bar...
