Abstract

The invention discloses a back contact layer used for a flexible substrate CIGS (Cu-In-Ga-Se) film solar battery. The back contact layer includes a flexible substrate, a stress cushion composite layer and a double-layer thick Pd film barrier layer. The stress cushion composite layer is formed on a flexible substrate. The double-layer thick Pd film barrier layer is formed on the stress cushion composite layer. The stress cushion composite layer is formed through repeated deposition of Pd ultrathin layers and Cu ultrathin layers. The thickness range of the Pd ultrathin layers and the Cu ultrathin layers is 1 to 5mm. The range of repeated deposition number is 20 to 50. The double-layer thick Pd film barrier layer includes a first Pd film and a second Pd film and the thicknesses are 100 to 200 nm and 600 to 700 nm respectively. According to the invention, with the stress cushion composite layer formed through repeated deposition of the Pd ultrathin layers and the Cu ultrathin layers, the stress between the back contact layer of the CIGS film solar battery and the flexible substrate is reduced effectively, so that abnormal coiling or film falling of the solar battery is prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of copper indium gallium selenide thin film solar cells, in particular to a back contact layer for a flexible substrate copper indium gallium selenide thin film solar cell. Background technique [0002] Flexible substrate copper indium gallium selenide thin film solar cells have broad market prospects because of their foldability, mechanical properties, high mass-to-power ratio, and roll-to-roll process. The traditional back contact layer structure uses Mo back contact layer, which can Improve the adhesion between the back contact layer and the substrate, and at the same time have good electrical properties to form a good ohmic contact with the CIGS absorber layer. For CIGS thin-film solar cells with flexible substrates, due to the mismatch between the thermal expansion and absorption of polyimide and Mo, the stress of the film is relatively large, which will lead to abnormal curling of the solar cell, and in severe c...
