Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the conductivity of amorphous silicon in existing HJT batteries is not good, and it is a common method to cover the surface with a transparent conductive film. At present, there are many types of transparent conductive films including In 2 o 3 , SnO 2 , ZnO, In 2 o 3 :Sn(ITO), In 2 o 3 : Mo (IMO), In 2 o 3 :W(IWO), SnO 2 :Sb(ATO), SnO 2 :F(FTO), ZnO:Al(ZnO), ZnO·SnO 2 , ZnO·In 2 o 3 , CdSb 2 o 6 、MgIn 2 o 4 、In 4 sn 3 O1 2 , Zn 2 In 2 o 5 , CdIn 2 o 4 、Cd 2 SnO 4 , Zn 2 SnO 4 , GaInO 3 etc.; due to the double-sided characteristics of the HJT battery, there are amorphous silicon layers on the front and back sides at the same time, and the conductive thin film layer mask area formed on the surface of the amorphous silicon layer is too large. The part of the surface of the layer that is not covered with the conductive layer, compared to the narrow mask cell, the mask area is too large to cause a loss in efficiency
[0004] At present, the surface of the formed conductive thin film layer has a mask area on one side or on both sides. By processing and forming grooves on the periphery of the silicon wafer supported by the carrier for depositing the film, it plays the role of placing the silicon wafer substrate and forming a mask area. The effect, the lateral distance between the mask area and the edge of the silicon wafer is difficult to be less than 0.8mm, which mainly depends on the following three factors. Insufficient chip precision and vibration during transmission. If the supporting groove is too small, it will easily cause the mask to deviate from the center position and cause the mask to shift. That is, the area not covered by the conductive layer on the silicon wafer cannot form symmetry. The third is the supporting groove. When the loading side is too small, it is easy to cause winding plating, and a short circuit is formed on the front and back
