Problems solved by technology

[0004] The above battery structures need to rely on heavily doped amorphous silicon, polycrystalline silicon or microcrystalline silicon to achieve electronic selective contact. Although these battery structures show high photoelectric conversion efficiency, whether it is amorphous silicon thin film, polycrystalline Silicon thin films, which have a high density of defect states and a narrow band gap, are likely to cause significant parasitic light absorption, which restricts the improvement of the spectral response, reduces the photogenerated current of the device, and affects the further improvement of the conversion efficiency.
In addition, this doping process also requires high temperature and highly toxic gases (borane, phosphine and silane) to grow, the process is complicated and the cost is high

Abstract

The invention relates to a crystalline silicon solar cell, in particular to application of zinc titanate in the crystalline silicon solar cell. The zinc titanate film is used as an electron selection layer in the crystalline silicon solar cell, the zinc titanate film has an energy band structure matched with a crystalline silicon substrate, a small conduction band order and a large valence band order can be generated when the zinc titanate film makes contact with crystalline silicon, electrons can be effectively selected on a contact interface, holes can be effectively blocked, and therefore zinc titanate/crystalline silicon heterogeneous contact is achieved, and the solar cell efficiency is improved. And the excellent electron selectivity is shown. The zinc titanate thin film also has a lower work function, and when the zinc titanate thin film is in contact with a crystalline silicon substrate, a crystalline silicon energy band is induced to be bent, so that electrons can be transmitted from crystalline silicon to zinc titanate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to crystalline silicon solar cells, in particular to the application of zinc titanate in crystalline silicon solar cells. Background technique [0002] Carrier selective contact is a research hotspot in high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells, aiming at the efficient separation and collection of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Therefore, the performance of carrier selective contact directly affects the performance of solar cells. The carrier-selective contact includes electron-selective contact and hole-selective contact, where electron-selective contact facilitates electron transport but hinders hole transport, and hole-selective contact does the opposite. [0003] At present, in the industry, heavy doping is mainly used to realize electronic selective contact of crystalline silicon solar cells. Including (1) passivated emitter and rear (PERC) cells: high-temperature phosphorus diffusion is performed in the crystall...
