Problems solved by technology

The steps are cumbersome, and the overall texturing time is long, which affects the actual production capacity; each step consumes a lot of chemicals, which increases production costs; the use of various additives in the texturing process increases the complexity of the process
The number of texturing reaction tanks is large, and the overall machine occupies a large area, requiring high space requirements.
[0007] Secondly, metal-assisted corrosion (wet black silicon technology) requires the use of a solution containing metal ions, usually noble metals. Although its initial content is not high, its consumption in large-scale mass production also occupies a relatively high cost, and waste The accumulation of precious metal content in the liquid increases, which is more harmful to the environment. It is necessary to increase the investment in waste liquid treatment, which further increases the production cost.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the texturing field of a crystalline silicon solar cell, and specifically relates to a texturing method for polysilicon wafer cutting by a diamond wire. The texturing method comprises the following steps of 1, preparing a corrosion liquid, putting a silicon wafer into the corrosion liquid to be reacted at a temperature of 20-80 DEG C for 4-15min to form a porous structureon the surface of the silicon wafer; 2, performing water washing on the silicon wafer processed in the first step, and then cleaning the silicon wafer by a demetalization cleaning liquid at a normal temperature to remove solid metal granules from the silicon wafer, wherein the cleaning time is 2-8min; and 3, performing water washing on the silicon wafer processed in the second step for 30-100S; and performing correction on the porous structure on the surface of the silicon wafer by adopting a texturing correction liquid. By cutting the polysilicon surface by the diamond wire, the texturing structure with uniform dimensions, hole diameter of 400nm-1.5mm, hole depth of 200-500nm and low reflectivity can be obtained, thereby improving photoelectric conversion efficiency effectively.
