Description
Technical Field

[0002] The industrialized production of modern solar cells is developing towards high efficiency and low cost. For back-contact solar cells, the characteristics are that there is no electrode on the front of the battery, and the positive and negative electrode metal grid lines are arranged in a finger-like cross-arrangement on the back of the battery. It has a higher short-circuit current and can effectively reduce the temperature coefficient of the battery, and has great development potential.
[0003] However, the existing back-contact cells and battery modules made of series-connected cells have complicated technical processes. The number of sub-grid electrodes in the emitter and base regions in the electrode pattern is not matched and is unreasonable, resulting in losses in the collection of minority carriers in the electrode, affecting the conversion efficiency. The main grid design is used in the electrode pattern, and the positive main grid is the same as the negative main grid, and the number of main grids is large and the width is large, which makes it difficult to distinguish the battery when the component is welded, resulting in welding errors. Secondly, the silver consumption is high, resulting in high manufacturing costs. When a main grid-free structure is used in the electrode pattern, although the manufacturing cost of the battery cell can be reduced, it is necessary to add insulating glue and conductive glue when welding at the component end, or directly use a conductive backplane, but the current technology is still immature.
