Abstract

The invention discloses an annealing method for a heterojunction solar cell. The method comprises: an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer and an n type amorphous silicon layer are deposited on one surface of an n type substrate and an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer and a p type amorphous silicon layer are deposited on the other surface, and a transparent conductive oxide film is deposited on the n type amorphous silicon layer and the p type amorphous silicon layer; a barrier layer and a non-silver metal seed crystal layer are deposited on the transparent conductive oxide layer; and a non-silver metal grid line is deposited on the non-silver metal seed crystal layer. Besides, the method also includes an annealing step: a solar cell is processed by annealing in a temperature range of 120 DEG to 190 DEG, wherein the annealing atmosphere is an atmosphere of non-oxidizing gas; and the solar cell after annealing is cooled. According to the annealing method, the non-silver metal grid line is used for replacing a printed silver line and compatibility with the high-temperature annealing process of the heterojunction cell technology is high, so that the cell performance can be improved; the process becomes simple; the annealing process zone increases; and the annealing condition meets the temperature stability requirement of the amorphous silicon layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cell manufacturing, in particular to an annealing method for a heterojunction solar cell. Background technique [0002] The transparent conductive oxide thin film layer in heterojunction solar cell technology is crucial to the performance of heterojunction cells. It needs to have good conductivity to help collect carriers, and as an anti-reflection layer to reduce the reflection of incident light on the surface of the silicon wafer , so that more light can enter the semiconductor light-absorbing layer. After the transparent conductive oxide thin film is deposited into a film, the annealing process can effectively improve the crystallinity of the transparent conductive oxide, and increase the electrical conductivity and light transmittance. Not only that, the intrinsic and doped amorphous silicon layer of the heterojunction cell, and the sputtering deposition process of the transparent conductive oxide film w...
