Abstract

The invention provides a chemical corrosive liquid, and belongs to the technical field of silicon wafer etching. The chemical corrosive liquid comprises an HNO3 / HF / H2O solution of MnO2 particles. According to the invention, when the chemical corrosive liquid is used for etching a silicon wafer, MnO2 particles settle on the surface of the silicon wafer to play a role of a mask, so that the reactionof etching the silicon wafer by HNO3 / HF / H2O mainly occurs in the area among the MnO2 particles so as to increase the depth-to-width ratio of an etching pit and reduce the light reflectivity of the surface of the silicon wafer; and the silicon is oxidized into SiO2 at the contact position of the MnO2 particles and the silicon, the generated SiO2 is removed by HF, the exposed silicon contacts MnO2,the reaction is continued, MnO2 particles are gradually consumed, and the comprehensive effect of the reaction is to improve the antireflection performance of the textured surface, so that the high-performance textured surface with low reflectivity can be obtained on the surface of the polycrystalline silicon wafer, and the method has the advantages of simple process and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of silicon wafer etching, in particular to a chemical etching solution and its application in silicon wafer etching. Background technique [0002] It is an important means to improve the efficiency of silicon solar cells to prepare textured surfaces on the surface of silicon wafers to reduce light reflectivity. At present, the main methods for preparing texture on the surface of polycrystalline silicon wafers include conventional HNO 3 / HF / H 2 O acid velvet and new black silicon velvet. [0003] HNO 3 / HF / H 2 O texturing uses the isotropic corrosion of silicon wafers by acid to obtain a textured surface with an "etch pit" structure on the surface of polycrystalline silicon wafers. There is a thick damage layer on the surface of the mortar-cut polysilicon wafer, and the position with structural defects can be used as the reaction starting point of acid texturing, and the reflectivity of the obtained "cor...
