Abstract

The invention discloses a low-pressure oxidation technology for a solar cell, and the technology mainly comprises the steps: preprocessing, reaction preparation, oxidation reaction, cooling and annealing, and boat withdrawing. A silicon dioxide film generated through the technology in a low-pressure environment where the temperature is less than 800 DEG C prolongs the service life of a few of carriers, and finally increases a short-circuit current and an open-circuit voltage of the cell, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency. A low-pressure diffusion furnace, compared witha normal pressure diffusion furnace, is small in pressure intensity, and is stable in air flow, thereby enabling the structure of the generated silicon dioxide film to be more compact and uniform. Theprepared silicon dioxide film is better in PID resistance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar polycrystalline cells, in particular to a low-pressure oxidation process of solar cells. Background technique [0002] The surface passivation of silicon solar cells is an extremely important process in the production process of solar cells. Although silicon nitride film has good anti-reflection and surface passivation effects at the same time, its stability is poor. Therefore, the deposition of silicon nitride film Previously, a silicon dioxide film was formed through a thermal oxidation process to improve stability. Thermal oxidation on the surface of the silicon wafer generates a layer of silicon dioxide film to passivate the front surface of the solar cell. Commonly used thermal oxidation methods include: dry oxygen oxidation, wet oxygen oxidation and water vapor oxidation, for example, in the Chinese patent Disclosed is a solar cell surface passivation layer structure, its application publication number is C...
