Problems solved by technology

Existing HF / HNO 3 The weight loss of the etching process is large, and the steps formed by the etching area and the non-etching area are relatively high, which has a great impact on the density of the subsequently deposited silicon nitride, which in turn affects the passivation effect of silicon nitride and reduces the open circuit of the battery Voltage
At the same time, a large etching weight loss will make the phosphorus diffusion layer in the etching area thinner, which will affect the lateral transport of carriers in the diffusion layer and reduce the fill factor of the battery.
If under the existing phosphorus diffusion process, directly reduce the etching weight loss, it will cause high square resistance in the etching area, high phosphorus doping concentration on the surface, high recombination in the surface area, and directly reduce the open circuit voltage of the battery

Embodiment 1

[0032] A matching HF / HNO 3 A high-quality phosphorus diffusion method for system selective etching, the process flow chart of this method is as follows figure 1 As shown, the method specifically includes the following steps:

[0033] (1) Inlet tube: put the silicon wafer to be diffused into the diffusion furnace tube,

[0034] (2) Heating up to the first temperature: under the condition of nitrogen atmosphere, the temperature of the diffusion furnace tube reaches the set temperature of 800°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min, and the flow rate of nitrogen gas is 9000 sccm.

[0035] (3) Oxidation: Oxygen was passed into the diffusion furnace tube for oxidation, and the oxidation time was 6 minutes; the gas flow rate of the oxygen was 450 sccm.

[0036] When the temperature of the diffusion furnace tube reaches the set temperature -1, the oxidation -1 step is first carried out to form a thin oxide layer on the surface of the silicon wafer to be diffused, the purpose of which is to...
