Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of silicon wafer etching, in particular to an alkali etching and polishing method for single crystal silicon wafers. Background technique [0002] The etching and polishing process is a crucial step in the solar cell production process. Etching and polishing are divided into dry etching and wet etching, in which wet etching is acid etching using an acidic solution of mixed acids such as hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid, and acetic acid, or using sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, etc. Alkaline solution for alkali etching. Acid etching can control the etching rate, and the surface morphology of the wafer after etching is good, but the etching rate of acid etching is too fast, which leads to the degradation of the flatness of the wafer; compared with acid etching, the etching rate of alkali etching is low, However, alkali etching can improve the flatness of the wafer, so a wafer with excellent flatness c...
