Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, the glass substrate of thin-film solar cells is mainly made of soda-lime silicate glass. Its preparation technology is mature and its manufacturing cost is low, but its disadvantage is that the softening point of high temperature heating is not high. With the advancement of the process, it can no longer meet the high temperature process technology of the battery
[0003] The high efficiency of CIGS thin-film solar cells mainly depends on its high-temperature process, which may involve a process of about 750°C, which may cause deformation of the glass for traditional soda-lime silicate glass with a softening point of about 720°C And warping, which in turn affects the quality of the film layer, thereby reducing the performance index of the entire solar cell device and limiting the further improvement of the photoelectric conversion efficiency of thin-film solar cells

Embodiment 3

[0014] The invention provides a kind of glass suitable for thin-film solar cell substrates, including 56% SiO by mass percentage 2 , 11% Al 2 o 3 , 0.05% ZrO 2 , 4.49% K 2 O, 9% Na 2 O, 1% MgO, 5% CaO, 3% BaO, 10% SrO, 0.40% SnO 2 and 0.1% MoO; the above-mentioned components are melted and molded according to the glass preparation process to obtain the glass.

[0015] The glass that embodiment one to three makes is compared with each performance index by traditional component soda-lime glass, specifically see the following table:

[0016]

[0017] It can be seen from the above table that the coefficient of thermal expansion of the glass in Examples 1 to 3 is 80-85*10 -7 / °C, the weight softening point is above 840°C, which meets the high temperature process energy requirements of thin film solar cells. The thermal expansion coefficient of traditional soda-lime glass meets the requirements, but the softening point of its own weight is around 720°C, so the dimensional ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a glass used for a film solar energy battery substrate. The glass comprises the following components by mass percentage: 55-58% of SiO2, 9-12% of Al2O3, 0.5-1% of ZrO2, 4-4.5% of K2O, 5-9% of Na2O, 0-1.5% of MgO, 3-5% of CaO, 0-3% of BaO, 6-10% of SrO, 0.1-0.5% of SnO2, and 0.05-0.1% of MoO3; wherein the sum of the mass percentage of SiO2, Al2O3 and ZrO2 is 67-68%, and the glass is obtained through fusion moulding of the above components according to a glass production technology. Compared with common sodium-calcium-silica glass, SrO and BaO are introduced, micro ZrO2 is introduced, by adjusting the ratio of SrO and BaO, the glass softening point is increased, and the thermal expansion coefficient is reduced; according to the ratio in the invention, the heat resistance and the mechanical strength are realized, and the glass can easily melted. In addition, the micro MoO3 is introduced, through cooperation of MoO3 and K2O, the surface tension of liquid glass is reduced, and the glass moulding control is easily realized.
