Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cells, more specifically, to a passivation contact structure and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact Structures (TOPCon, Tunnel Oxide Passivated-Contact structures) is a new type of crystalline silicon solar cell structure first proposed by the German Fraunhofer Institute in 2014, aiming to improve the passivation of the back of the silicon cell. Specifically, using an n-type silicon wafer as a substrate, first grow a layer of ultra-thin silicon oxide with a thickness of less than 3nm on the back of the silicon wafer using hot nitric acid, and then prepare a layer of phosphorus-doped amorphous silicon, which is crystallized by high-temperature annealing , achieving excellent passivation properties. The excellent passivation performance comes from two aspects, one: the ultra-thin silicon oxide on the surface can effectively passivate the dangli...
