Description

[0002] With the iterative development of crystalline silicon cell technology, the research on high-efficiency cell technology based on N-type silicon wafers has been increasingly sought after by the industry. At present, the mainstream N-type high-efficiency cell technology is represented by HJT and Topcon cells. At the same time, the demand for technological innovation and diversity has led to the emergence of a variety of cell technologies. Since HJT cells use an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer as a passivation film layer, excellent open-circuit voltage can be obtained. The light-receiving area of ​​the light-receiving surface of the HJT cell is amorphous silicon or microcrystalline silicon and TCO film layer. The outer layer of TCO is deposited with anti-reflection film layers such as aluminum oxide, silicon oxide and magnesium fluoride. The technical effect is better, but the process is difficult to implement. The refractive index of the outermost TCO is usually 1.8~2.1. If the optical performance of TCO is improved, the electrical properties of TCO may be affected; in addition, the parasitic absorption caused by the amorphous or microcrystalline film layer on the light-receiving surface reduces the short-circuit current to a certain extent.
