Problems solved by technology

The traditional alkali-texturing process requires high temperature (75°C-85°C), long-time (20min-30min) and rough throwing with greater weight loss. The polishing process still requires high temperature, and the reaction time is still maintained at about 10 minutes
[0003] In addition, the top of the pyramid structure obtained by the existing alkali texturing process is relatively sharp, which is not conducive to the passivation of subsequent battery processes, especially for high-efficiency battery technologies such as PERC, HIT, and IBC, which have very strict requirements for passivation. To improve the passivation process of the pyramid, it is necessary to introduce an additional chemical treatment process "rounding", which will also lose its optical properties and increase reflectivity at the same time
Moreover, the size of the pyramid structure obtained by the existing alkali texturing process is relatively large, generally 1 μm to 10 μm, and the size distribution is very uneven. , back throwing and electrode contact are very unfavorable, seriously affecting the improvement of battery efficiency

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular relates to a rapid pyramid texturing liquid, a texturing method thereof and a silicon chip product. Background technique [0002] Texturing, as a key process in the process of crystalline silicon cells, plays an important role in improving efficiency. For monocrystalline silicon, the commonly used texturing process is alkali texturing, which forms a pyramid structure on the surface of the silicon wafer through anisotropic etching of alkali. In the alkali texturing process, it is usually necessary to add some additives, such as IPA, etc. to effectively control the reaction. However, with the development of crystalline silicon battery technology, cost reduction and efficiency increase have increasingly become the focus of attention. The traditional alkali-texturing process requires high temperature (75°C-85°C), long-time (20min-30min) and rough throwing with greater weight l...
