[0060] In one embodiment of the present application, a method for preparing a photovoltaic cell is as follows: Figure 1As shown, it includes the following steps: providing an initial cell, wherein the surface of the initial cell has a doped conductive layer, and the surface has a first area and a second area; depositing a protective layer on the surface; performing a first laser treatment on the first area to remove the protective layer at the first area; performing a second laser treatment on the first area to make the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer in the first area higher than the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer in the second area; printing and sintering the initial cell to form an electrode on the initial cell, wherein the projection of the electrode on the substrate of the initial cell is located in the first area; performing at least two laser-assisted sintering on the electrode, wherein the at least two laser-assisted sinterings use lasers of different wavelengths. The above-mentioned photovoltaic cell preparation method, by removing the protective layer in the first area and increasing the doping concentration in the first area, combined with at least two laser-assisted sintering, on the one hand, optimizes the metal contact area, which is beneficial to reduce the use of silver paste, thereby reducing material costs, while enhancing the paste contact sintering and removing the damage caused by laser grooving doping; on the other hand, it optimizes the doping concentration, significantly reduces the contact resistance, is beneficial to increase the open circuit voltage and fill factor, while reducing shading loss and ensuring current collection efficiency, thereby significantly improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and reliability of the battery, while simplifying the production process and reducing production costs.

[0061] In each embodiment, the photovoltaic cell preparation method comprises the following steps: Figure 2 As shown, an initial cell 100 is provided, and a surface 110 of the initial cell 100 has a first region 101 and a second region 102; as an example, the surface 110 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 disposed opposite to each other; in other embodiments, the processed surface 110 is a single surface. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first region 101 includes a third region 103 located on the first surface 111 and a fifth region 105 located on the second surface 112 , and the second region 102 includes a fourth region 104 located on the first surface 111 and a sixth region 106 located on the second surface 112 . Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, the projections of the third region 103 and the fifth region 105 on the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 do not overlap, and the projections of the fourth region 104 and the sixth region 106 on the substrate 210 do not overlap. Figure 10 As shown, the projections of the third region 103 and the fifth region 105 on the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 overlap, and the projections of the fourth region 104 and the sixth region 106 on the substrate 210 also overlap. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 respectively include a first area 101 and a second area 102 spaced apart along the target direction, wherein the first surface 111 includes a third area 103 and a fourth area 104 spaced apart along the target direction, and the second surface 112 includes a fifth area 105 and a sixth area 106 spaced apart along the target direction; as an example, the target direction is the length direction of the electrode to be described below. It can be understood that the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 are planes, or at least one of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 is a surface 110 with a microscopic undulating morphology after being processed by a texturing process. Such a design is conducive to flexibly setting the positions of the first area 101 and the second area 102 according to product design requirements to cooperate with the electrode production process to be described below.

[0062] Combine Figure 5 , the surface 110 of the initial cell 100 has a doped conductive layer 120, and for an embodiment in which the surface 110 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the doped conductive layer 120 includes a first doped conductive layer 121 located on the first surface 111 and a second doped conductive layer 122 located on the second surface 112. Specifically, for example, an initial cell 100 is provided. The initial cell 100 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 disposed opposite each other. Alternatively, the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 disposed opposite each other. Both the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 have doped conductive layers 120, wherein the first surface 111 has the first doped conductive layer 121 and the second surface 112 has the second doped conductive layer 122. Alternatively, the substrate 210 has the first doped conductive layer 121 and the second doped conductive layer 122 disposed on its first surface 111 and second surface 112, respectively. By way of example, the first doped conductive layer 121 is an emitter, which will be described below, and the second doped conductive layer 122 is a doped polysilicon layer, which will be described below. This design facilitates the preparation of the initial cell 100 into the desired photovoltaic cell.

[0063] In each embodiment, the photovoltaic cell preparation method comprises the following steps: Figure 6 As shown, a protective layer 130 is deposited on the surface 110. In some embodiments, the protective layer 130 is deposited on the surface, including: depositing a passivation anti-reflection layer on the surface, that is, using the passivation anti-reflection layer as the protective layer 130. As an example, the protective layer 130 is deposited on the first surface 111 and the second surface 112. For the embodiment in which the surface 110 includes the first surface 111 and the second surface 112, Figure 6In the embodiment shown, the protective layer 130 includes a first passivation anti-reflection layer 230 located on the first doped conductive layer 121, and a second passivation anti-reflection layer 270 located on the second doped conductive layer 122. In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first passivation anti-reflection layer 230 includes an aluminum oxide layer 131 and a first silicon nitride layer 132, and the second passivation anti-reflection layer 270 includes a second silicon nitride layer 133. This design is conducive to adapting to the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 in different positions of the finished battery, avoiding material waste and affecting conversion efficiency.

[0064] As an example, the passivation anti-reflection layer is deposited on the surface 110, including: depositing an aluminum oxide layer 131 on the first surface 111 and a first silicon nitride layer 132 on the aluminum oxide layer 131, that is, depositing the aluminum oxide layer 131 on the first surface 111 and depositing the first silicon nitride layer 132 on the aluminum oxide layer 131; depositing the second silicon nitride layer 133 on the second surface 112; that is, depositing the aluminum oxide layer 131 on the first surface 111 and depositing the first silicon nitride layer 132 on the aluminum oxide layer 131, and depositing the second silicon nitride layer 133 on the second surface 112. In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, a protective layer 130 is deposited on the first side 111 and the second side 112 of the initial cell 100. Specifically, the process includes: depositing an aluminum oxide layer 131 on the first side 111 of the initial cell 100; depositing a first silicon nitride layer 132 on the first side 111 of the initial cell 100; and depositing a second silicon nitride layer 133 on the second side 112 of the initial cell 100. That is, the protective layer 130 on the first side 111 includes the aluminum oxide layer 131 and the first silicon nitride layer 132, and the protective layer 130 on the second side 112 includes the second silicon nitride layer 133. For ease of distinction, the first silicon nitride layer 132 on the first side 111 may be referred to as a first anti-reflection layer; and the second silicon nitride layer 133 on the second side 112 may be referred to as a second anti-reflection layer. Alternatively, the aluminum oxide layer 131 and the first silicon nitride layer 132 on the first surface 111 are collectively referred to as the first passivation anti-reflection layer 230; the second silicon nitride layer 133 on the second surface 112 is referred to as the second passivation anti-reflection layer 270. The first silicon nitride layer 132 and the second silicon nitride layer 133 function to reduce reflection, thereby maximizing the incident rate and thus improving utilization. Furthermore, during the formation of the first silicon nitride layer 132 and the second silicon nitride layer 133, the hydrogen atoms generated can also effectively passivate the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100, i.e., the silicon wafer. This means that the first silicon nitride layer 132 and the second silicon nitride layer 133 also have a certain passivation effect, which can reduce carrier recombination on the silicon wafer surface 110.

[0065] Such a design, on the one hand, can effectively reduce the reflectivity of the cell surface 110, allowing more sunlight to enter the interior of the cell, thereby improving light utilization, increasing the generation of photogenerated carriers, and thus improving the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the cell. In addition, the aluminum oxide layer 131, the first silicon nitride layer 132, and the second silicon nitride layer 133, acting alone or in combination, further reduce carrier recombination on the silicon wafer surface 110, improve the carrier lifetime and mobility, and facilitate the separation and transmission of photogenerated carriers, thereby improving the open circuit voltage and fill factor of the cell, and further improving the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the cell. On the other hand, for the first surface 111, the dual passivation effect of the aluminum oxide layer 131 and the first silicon nitride layer 132 can effectively protect the first surface 111 of the silicon wafer surface 110 that receives light, reduce the influence of surface states and impurities, thereby improving the anti-attenuation performance and long-term stability of the photovoltaic cell, and thus extending the service life of the photovoltaic cell.

[0066] In each embodiment, the photovoltaic cell manufacturing method comprises the following steps: performing a first laser treatment on the first region 101 to remove the protective layer 130 in the first region 101; as an example, after removing the protective layer 130 in the first region 101, a groove is formed on the doped conductive layer 120 at the location of the original protective layer 130 to facilitate subsequent processing. Figure 8 As shown, the first laser treatment is performed on the third area 103 of the first surface 111 to remove the first passivation anti-reflection layer 230 in the third area 103, forming a first groove 141, and retaining the first passivation anti-reflection layer 230 in the fourth area 104; the first laser treatment is performed on the fifth area 105 of the second surface 112 to remove the second passivation anti-reflection layer 270 in the fifth area 105, forming a second groove 142, and retaining the second passivation anti-reflection layer 270 in the sixth area. Or as Figure 9 As shown, the third region 103 of the first surface 111 is subjected to a first laser treatment to remove the aluminum oxide layer 131 and the first silicon nitride layer 132 in the third region 103, forming a third groove 143, and retaining the aluminum oxide layer 131 and the first silicon nitride layer 132 in the fourth region 104; the fifth region 105 of the second surface 112 is subjected to a first laser treatment to remove the second silicon nitride layer 133 in the fifth region 105, forming a fourth groove 144, and retaining the second silicon nitride layer 133 in the sixth region. This design removes the protective layer 130 in the first region 101 through the first laser treatment process, creating conditions for high-concentration doping and electrode printing in the subsequent second laser process, thereby helping to improve the electrode contact effect, thereby reducing the contact resistance, and thus improving the current collection efficiency.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first region 101 is subjected to a second laser treatment so that the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the first region 101 is higher than the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the second region 102. As an example, the first laser treatment of the first region 101 includes: performing a first laser treatment on the first region 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 to remove the protective layer 130 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 at the first region 101; as an example, performing a second laser treatment on the first region 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 to make the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the first region 101 higher than the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the second region 102. Such a design, on the one hand, removes the protective layer 130 in the first region 101 through the first laser treatment process, thereby creating conditions for high-concentration doping and electrode printing in the subsequent second laser process, which helps to form better quality electrode contacts, thereby reducing contact resistance and improving current collection efficiency. On the other hand, the design of the second laser treatment process makes the doping concentration of the first region 101 higher than the doping concentration of the second region 102. This differentiated doping concentration design, combined with the subsequent processing of the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 280, can significantly reduce the contact resistance, thereby increasing the open circuit voltage and fill factor of the battery, and further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.

[0068] As an example, before printing and sintering the initial cell 100, the photovoltaic cell preparation method uses a laser process to selectively perform two laser treatments on the front and back surfaces, including adding a laser process to groove the front surface of the cell before printing; as an example, adding a laser process to groove the front surface of the cell before screen printing. The first laser treatment removes the protective layer 130 in the first area 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112, that is, removes part of the film layer on the front and back surfaces. Exemplarily, for an embodiment having an aluminum oxide layer 131, the first laser treatment removes the aluminum oxide layer 131 in the first area 101 of the first surface 111; for an embodiment having a first silicon nitride layer 132 and a second silicon nitride layer 133, the first laser treatment removes the first silicon nitride layer 132 in the first area 101 of the first surface 111, and removes the second silicon nitride layer 133 in the first area 101 of the second surface 112. This is conducive to coordinating with subsequent processes to perform high-concentration doping in these first areas 101. As an example, the second laser treatment makes the doping concentration of the first region 101 higher than the doping concentration of the second region 102. This design, on the one hand, uses a laser process to groove the front of the cell before screen printing, removing the protective layer 130 in the first region 101, creating conditions for subsequent high-concentration doping and electrode printing, which is conducive to improving the electrode contact state, thereby further reducing the contact resistance. On the other hand, the second laser treatment is performed through the laser process to increase the doping concentration of the first region 101. As mentioned above, this differentiated doping concentration design, combined with the subsequent processing of the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 280, can significantly reduce the contact resistance, thereby increasing the open circuit voltage and fill factor of the battery, and further increasing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery. On the other hand, by precisely removing the protective layer 130 in the first region 101 through the laser process, the doping area and the electrode printing area can be more accurately controlled, reducing the waste of conductive materials such as silver paste, thereby reducing production costs. On the other hand, the laser process can effectively repair the damage caused by the laser grooving and doping process, improving the stability and reliability of the battery and extending the service life of the battery.

[0069] As an example, the front and back of the cell are lasered twice after back coating and before screen printing. The first laser treatment is the initial laser doping, which can also be called the initial laser doping. First, the initial laser is performed on a local area of ​​the cell to remove part of the passivation layer of the front and back film layers for preliminary doping to form a preliminary high-concentration doping area. This step can use green or red laser, and the appropriate wavelength is selected according to specific needs. The second laser treatment is the second laser doping, which can also be called the second laser doping. On the basis of the initial doping, the second laser doping is performed to further optimize the uniformity and depth of the doped area. The two doping can use the same or different wavelengths of lasers to achieve more precise control.

[0070] In some embodiments, green light is used for the first laser treatment and red light is used for the second laser treatment; that is, green laser light is used for the first laser treatment and red laser light is used for the second laser treatment. That is, in this embodiment, the laser wavelengths used for the first laser treatment and the second laser treatment are set differently. As an example, the first laser treatment uses green light with a wavelength of 495 to 570 nanometers to achieve a shallower doping depth and high-precision local doping. The high energy density of the green laser can quickly activate the dopant. The second laser treatment uses red light with a wavelength of 620 to 1100 nanometers to achieve a deeper doping depth and a more uniform doping distribution. The low energy density and deep penetration ability of the red laser can reduce surface damage. For example, the first laser treatment uses green light with a wavelength of 532 nm and the second laser treatment uses red light with a wavelength of 1064 nm. Such a design, on the one hand, uses a laser process in conjunction with green light for the first laser treatment, which is not only conducive to effectively repairing the damage caused to the first region 101 during the laser grooving and doping process, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the battery, but also facilitates high-precision local doping at a shallow doping depth in the first region 101; on the other hand, the second laser treatment through the laser process further increases the doping concentration of the first region 101, thereby facilitating the reduction of the contact resistance of the photovoltaic cell, and further facilitating the improvement of the open circuit voltage and fill factor of the photovoltaic cell, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic cell.

[0071] For example, the initial laser doping typically uses a lower energy density to form a preliminary high-concentration doped area. The second laser doping uses a higher energy density to further optimize the doping depth and uniformity. The initial laser doping typically uses a longer pulse width to ensure sufficient diffusion time for the dopant. The second laser doping uses a shorter pulse width to achieve more precise local heating and doping. The initial laser doping typically uses a lower frequency and a slower scanning speed to ensure that the exposure time of each laser point is long enough. The second laser doping uses a higher frequency and a faster scanning speed to improve production efficiency.

[0072] In some embodiments, the laser energy density in the first laser treatment is lower than the laser energy density in the second laser treatment; the pulse width range in the first laser treatment is greater than the pulse width range in the second laser treatment; and the laser frequency and scanning speed in the first laser treatment are lower than the laser frequency and scanning speed in the second laser treatment, respectively. In some embodiments, the laser energy density in the first laser treatment is 0.1 J / cm² to 0.5 J / cm², and the laser energy density in the second laser treatment is 0.5 J / cm² to 1.0 J / cm²; in some embodiments, the pulse width in the first laser treatment is 10 ns to 30 ns, and the pulse width in the second laser treatment is 1 ns to 10 ns; in some embodiments, the laser frequency in the first laser treatment is 10 kHz to 30 kHz, and the scanning speed is 100 mm / s to 300 mm / s; and the laser frequency in the second laser treatment is 30 kHz to 50 kHz, and the scanning speed is 300 mm / s to 500 mm / s. In some embodiments, the laser energy density in the first laser treatment is 0.1 J / cm² to 0.5 J / cm², and the laser energy density in the second laser treatment is 0.5 J / cm² to 1.0 J / cm²; the pulse width in the first laser treatment is in the range of 10 ns to 30 ns, and the pulse width in the second laser treatment is in the range of 1 ns to 10 ns; the laser frequency in the first laser treatment is in the range of 10 kHz to 30 kHz, and the scanning speed is in the range of 100 mm / s to 300 mm / s; the laser frequency in the second laser treatment is in the range of 30 kHz to 50 kHz, and the scanning speed is in the range of 300 mm / s to 500 mm / s. The remaining embodiments are similar and will not be described in detail.

[0073] As an example, the laser energy density in the first laser treatment is 0.25J / cm², and the laser energy density in the second laser treatment is 0.8J / cm²; the pulse width range in the first laser treatment is 18ns, and the pulse width range in the second laser treatment is 3ns; the laser frequency range in the first laser treatment is 20kHz, and the scanning speed is 200mm / s; the laser frequency range in the second laser treatment is 42kHz, and the scanning speed is 390mm / s; the remaining embodiments are similar and will not be described in detail.

[0074] Such a design, on the one hand, achieves high-concentration doping by improving doping, that is, by laser grooving, high-concentration doping is performed in the first area, such as the metal grid line contact area, which can significantly reduce the contact resistance, that is, the series resistance. The increase in doping concentration significantly reduces the contact resistance between the electrode and the silicon wafer, thereby improving the current collection efficiency of the photovoltaic cell. On the other hand, only performing high-concentration doping in the first area, such as the metal grid line contact area, can avoid the negative effects of high-concentration doping on the entire battery surface, such as increasing surface recombination losses, that is, it is beneficial to avoid increasing surface recombination losses. On the other hand, due to the reduced contact resistance, the recombination loss of carriers can be reduced, thereby increasing the open circuit voltage, which is beneficial to improving electrical performance. On the other hand, by improving doping and combining at least two laser-assisted sintering, it is beneficial to optimize the electrical performance of the metal contact area, improve the fill factor, and further improve the overall efficiency of the photovoltaic cell; at the same time, the amount of silver paste used can be reduced, thereby reducing material costs. Among them, the fill factor reflects the current and voltage output capabilities of the battery under actual working conditions. This embodiment uses two laser dopings on the front and back sides respectively. By reducing the series resistance and optimizing the electrode contact, it can significantly improve the fill factor of the photovoltaic cell, thereby improving the overall performance of the photovoltaic cell and significantly improving the overall photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic cell.

[0075] In each embodiment, the photovoltaic cell preparation method comprises the steps of: printing and sintering the initial cell 100, and forming electrodes on the initial cell 100; it is understood that the initial cell 100 before printing and sintering can also be called a cell intermediate or a cell semi-finished product. Figure 10 As shown, as an example, the initial cell 100 is printed and sintered to form a first electrode 240 located on the first surface 111 and a second electrode 280 located on the second surface 112 on the initial cell 100; it can be understood that, Figure 10 As shown, a first electrode 240 is formed on the first doped conductive layer 121 located on the first surface 111, and a second electrode 280 is formed on the second doped conductive layer 122 located on the second surface 112. In some embodiments, printing the initial cell 100 is specifically performed by screen printing the initial cell 100, or performing laser pattern transfer on the initial cell 100 to print a conductive paste onto the silicon wafer surface 110 to form front and back electrodes, including the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 280. As an example, screen printing uses a screen template to print silver paste onto the front of the silicon wafer and silver paste or aluminum paste onto the back of the silicon wafer. Laser pattern transfer printing, also known as laser transfer printing, uses a high-power laser beam to perform high-speed pattern scanning to accurately transfer the paste to the cell surface 110, thereby completing the preparation of the grid lines and the electrodes.

[0076] In some embodiments, combined Figure 2 and Figure 10 The electrodes include a first electrode 240 located on the first surface 111 and a second electrode 280 located on the second surface 112, and the target direction includes the length direction of the first electrode 240 and the length direction of the second electrode 280. That is, the electrodes include the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 280 of the photovoltaic cell; the first electrode 240 is located on the first surface 111 of the photovoltaic cell, and the second electrode 280 is located on the second surface 112 of the photovoltaic cell; the target direction includes the length direction of the first electrode 240 and the length direction of the second electrode 280. By way of example, the length direction of the first electrode 240 is the direction in which the first electrode 240 extends in terms of length, and the length direction of the second electrode 280 is the direction in which the second electrode 280 extends in terms of length. In some embodiments, the projection of the electrodes on the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 is located in the first region 101. For the first electrode 240, its projection onto the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 is located in the third region 103 of the first side 111. For the second electrode 280, its projection onto the substrate 210 of the initial cell 100 is located in the fifth region 105 of the second side 112. In some embodiments, the width of the first electrode 240 is different from the width of the second electrode 280. This design, by positioning the electrode projection within the first region 101 of the initial cell 100, allows the electrode to precisely align with the laser-treated high-doping concentration region, further reducing contact resistance, improving electrical performance between the electrode and the silicon wafer, and enhancing current collection efficiency. Furthermore, the ability to differ in width between the first and second electrodes 240, 280 provides greater flexibility in battery design. For example, the electrode widths can be adjusted based on the specific needs and design requirements of the battery to optimize the battery's current collection and transmission efficiency, thereby improving overall battery performance. Furthermore, this design allows for flexible adjustment of the electrode layout and dimensions in different embodiments based on specific process conditions and battery performance targets. This allows the method to better adapt to different types of photovoltaic cell manufacturing processes, improving the process's versatility and adaptability. Furthermore, by precisely controlling the layout and size of the electrodes, materials can be more efficiently utilized, reducing waste of conductive materials like silver paste, thereby lowering production costs.

[0077] In various embodiments, the photovoltaic cell manufacturing method includes the steps of performing at least two laser-assisted sintering processes on the electrodes on the first side 111 and the second side 112, wherein the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes utilize lasers of different wavelengths. In some embodiments, during the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes, the irradiation time of the first laser-assisted sintering process is at least twice that of the second laser-assisted sintering process. As an example, the irradiation time of the first laser-assisted sintering process is 0.8 seconds, and the irradiation time of the second laser-assisted sintering process is 0.4 seconds, i.e., the irradiation time of the first laser-assisted sintering process is twice that of the second laser-assisted sintering process. Exemplarily, the irradiation time of the first laser-assisted sintering process is 2 to 4 times that of the second laser-assisted sintering process. For the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes, the peak sintering temperature range for wire mesh sintering is 710°C, 760°C, 810°C, 870°C, and 920°C, and the sintering temperature range is reduced by 5°C to 15°C. The at least two laser-assisted sintering processes can reduce the laser process irradiation time by 0.1 to 0.3 seconds. As an example, the higher the screen sintering peak temperature zone, the lower the screen sintering peak temperature zone, the longer the laser irradiation time of the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes. The lower the screen sintering peak temperature zone, the longer the laser irradiation time of the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes. For at least two laser-assisted sintering processes, as an example, the laser power of the first laser-assisted sintering process is 8% to 13%, and the irradiation time is 0.6 seconds to 0.9 seconds; the laser power of the second laser-assisted sintering process is 3% to 8%, and the irradiation time is 0.3 seconds to 0.6 seconds. As an example, the first laser-assisted sintering process uses a lower energy density to form a preliminary sintering area, and the energy density range is 0.1J / cm² to 0.3J / cm². The second laser-assisted sintering process uses a higher energy density to further optimize sintering and sintering line shape, and the energy density range is 0.3J / cm² to 0.8J / cm². It can be understood that the lower and higher values ​​in this embodiment are compared between the first laser-assisted sintering process and the second laser-assisted sintering process, and the same will be repeated below. As an example, the first laser-assisted sintering uses a longer pulse width to ensure that the slurry has sufficient diffusion time, and the pulse width range is 10ns to 35ns. The second laser-assisted sintering uses a shorter pulse width to achieve more precise local heating and sintering. The pulse width range is 1ns to 15ns. As an example, the first laser-assisted sintering uses a lower frequency and a slower scanning speed to ensure that the exposure time of each laser point is long enough, the frequency range is 10kHz to 30kHz, and the scanning speed is 100mm / s to 300mm / s. The second laser-assisted sintering uses a higher frequency and a faster scanning speed to improve production efficiency. The frequency range is 35kHz to 50kHz, and the scanning speed is 350mm / s to 550mm / s. As an example, the temperature threshold of the electrode is controlled by controlling the power and irradiation time of the laser.Such a design, on the one hand, can precisely control the temperature threshold of the electrode by controlling the power and irradiation time of the laser, which is conducive to ensuring that the electrode reaches the optimal sintering temperature during the sintering process, thereby achieving good contact between the electrode and the silicon wafer, while avoiding damage or thermal stress to the silicon wafer due to excessive temperature. On the other hand, LECO laser-assisted sintering can provide fast and concentrated thermal energy, so that the electrode material reaches the sintering temperature in a short time, achieving rapid sintering, which is conducive to reducing the diffusion and oxidation of the material during the sintering process, improving the conductivity and adhesion of the electrode, and thus optimizing the sintering quality of the electrode. On the other hand, by precisely controlling the sintering temperature and optimizing the electrode sintering quality, precise control of the sintering process is achieved, which is conducive to reducing thermal damage to the silicon wafer during the sintering process, improving the mechanical stability and reliability of the battery, and at the same time reducing the contact resistance between the electrode and the silicon wafer, improving the current collection efficiency and fill factor of the battery, and thus improving the overall performance of the battery.

[0078] In some embodiments, in at least the second laser-assisted sintering, the spot width of the laser used in the laser-assisted sintering is greater than the width of the electrode, that is, the spot width of the laser irradiated to the electrode is greater than the width of the electrode. For embodiments in which the spot width of the laser irradiated to the electrode is greater than the width of the electrode, such a design can, on the one hand, ensure that the entire area of ​​the electrode and the edge of the electrode can be fully sintered, and this design helps to improve the adhesion and conductivity of the electrode edge, further optimizing the overall performance of the electrode. On the other hand, by controlling the spot width and power of the laser, it can be ensured that the electrode is uniformly sintered across the entire width, reducing sintering unevenness and improving the consistency and reliability of the electrode; at the same time, combined with laser-assisted sintering technology, the laser parameters can be flexibly adjusted according to different battery designs and process requirements to achieve better sintering effects, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the process.

[0079] In some embodiments, in at least two laser-assisted sinterings, the first laser-assisted sintering uses a green laser and the second laser-assisted sintering uses a red laser. As an example, each laser-assisted sintering is LECO laser-assisted sintering, using an auxiliary LECO laser, and performing two laser-assisted sinterings on the front and back main fine grids respectively, the first time is green light sintering and the second time is red light sintering, so as to reduce the amount of silver paste used, enhance the contact sintering of the paste, and remove the damage caused by laser grooving and doping. Exemplarily, the first laser-assisted sintering uses a green laser with a wavelength of 495 nanometers to 570 nanometers; the second laser-assisted sintering uses a red laser with a wavelength of 620 nanometers to 1100 nanometers. As an example, in each relevant embodiment, the red laser is not limited to the range visible to the naked eye.

[0080] The following is an example of a method for preparing a photovoltaic cell. In some embodiments, the method for preparing a photovoltaic cell includes the following steps: cleaning and texturing, boron diffusion, back etching, tunneling oxide layer and polysilicon deposition, back laser, front etching RCA (Radio Corporation of America cleaning), atomic layer deposition (ALD) passivation and annealing, front aluminum oxide deposition, front and back silicon nitride deposition, front and back laser doping, screen printing and sintering, front and back laser assisted sintering using laser-enhanced contact optimization (LECO) technology, and half-cut piece (HCP) passivation. As an example, the surface 110 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 arranged opposite to each other; and the front-side aluminum oxide deposition and the front-side and back-side silicon nitride deposition steps are specifically as follows: depositing a protective layer 130 on the first surface 111 and the second surface 112; the front-side and back-side laser doping steps are specifically as follows: performing a first laser treatment on the first area 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 to remove the protective layer 130 on the first area 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112; performing a second laser treatment on the first area 101 of the first surface 111 and the second surface 112 to make the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the first area 101 higher than the doping concentration of the doped conductive layer 120 in the second area 102, that is, the doping concentration of the first doped conductive layer 121 in the third area 103 is higher than the doping concentration of the first doped conductive layer 121 in the fourth area 104; and making the doping concentration of the second doped conductive layer 122 in the fifth area 105 higher than the doping concentration of the second doped conductive layer 122 in the sixth area 106. As an example, the two LECO laser-assisted sintering steps on the front and back sides are specifically as follows: the electrodes on the first side 111 and the second side 112 are subjected to at least two laser-assisted sintering processes, wherein the at least two laser-assisted sintering processes use lasers of different wavelengths. As an example, the number of laser-assisted sintering processes is 2 to 4 times. This design, on the one hand, by removing the protective layer 130 in the first area 101, allows the subsequent electrode printing and sintering processes to act more accurately on the target area, thereby reducing the amount of silver paste used and reducing material costs; and this optimized contact area is conducive to enhancing the contact sintering effect between the paste and the silicon wafer, improving the adhesion and conductivity of the electrode. On the other hand, by performing a second laser treatment on the first area 101, the doping concentration of the first area 101 is increased, so that the doping concentration of the first area 101 is higher than the doping concentration of the second area 102. This differentiated doping concentration design can significantly reduce the contact resistance, thereby improving the open circuit voltage and fill factor of the battery, and further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic cell.On the other hand, by precisely controlling the doping concentrations of the first region 101 and the second region 102 and optimizing the metal contact area, the shading area of ​​the photovoltaic electrode on the surface 110 of the battery can be reduced, the shading loss can be reduced, the current collection efficiency can be ensured, and the conversion efficiency and performance of the photovoltaic cell can be further improved.

This design optimizes the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 280 on both surfaces of the photovoltaic cell 200.

[0084] In one embodiment, a photovoltaic cell 200 such as Figure 12 As shown, Figure 11 The difference from the illustrated embodiment is that, in this embodiment, the first passivation anti-reflection layer 230 includes an aluminum oxide layer 131 and a first silicon nitride layer 132. The aluminum oxide layer 131 is disposed on the emitter 220, and the first silicon nitride layer 132 is disposed on the aluminum oxide layer 131. As an example, the second passivation anti-reflection layer 270 includes a second silicon nitride layer 133. In this design, the aluminum oxide layer 131 is used to enhance the passivation effect of the emitter 220 at the first surface 111, while the first silicon nitride layer 132 and the second silicon nitride layer 133 are used to reduce reflection on the first surface 111 and the second surface 112, respectively. At the same time, the first silicon nitride layer 132 and the second silicon nitride layer 133 also have a certain passivation effect.
