Abstract

The invention relates to a solar cell. The solar cell comprises a silicon wafer, a front-surface electrode, an aluminum layer and a back electrode, wherein the front-surface electrode is arranged on a light surface of the silicon wafer, the aluminum layer and the back electrode are arranged on a backlight surface of the silicon wafer, the aluminum layer is arranged on a surface of the backlight surface of the silicon wafer, the back electrode is arranged on a surface of the aluminum layer, and minority carrier lifetime of backlight surface of the silicon wafer in contact with the aluminum layer is 3-10 microseconds. The invention also provides a preparation method of a back passivation solar cell. The solar cell prepared by the method is simple in process and good in passivation effect, the series resistance of the battery is greatly reduced, the filling factor of the battery is obviously increased, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is also improved; and compared with the solar cell only comprising the aluminum layer on the backlight surface, the short-circuit current and the open-circuit voltage of the battery both can be increased to a great extent, the series resistance is also reduced, and thus, the conversion efficiency of the battery is remarkably improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a back passivated solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Existing solar cells generally include a silicon wafer, a front electrode on the light-facing surface, and a back battery and a back electrode on the back-light surface. The positive electrode outputs the negative current of the battery, and the back electric field has a back electrode and a back electric field formed by printing aluminum conductive paste on the back light surface and then sintering on the back light surface. [0003] The aluminum back field can reduce the minority carrier concentration and reduce the recombination, but it still cannot compare with the passivation effect brought by the dielectric layer. UNSW proposed the emitter and rear passivation (PERC) structure and the emitter and rear passivation local diffusion (PERL) structure as early as the 1990s. In the early designs, both structures were passivated with a s...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] The rear passivated crystalline silicon solar cells prepared by the current aluminum oxide passivation process need to deposit two layers of films on the back, namely the aluminum oxide passivation layer and the silicon nitride protective layer. Use laser ablation to form grooves with a certain width and spacing distance, and then print conductive aluminum paste. The aluminum paste forms an aluminum back field through laser etching grooves and silicon wafers, because the area of ​​the groove is small, and the silicon nitride layer has a considerable Therefore, the series resistance of the battery increases, the fill factor decreases, and the efficiency of the battery is limited.
