Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of crystalline silicon cell manufacturing, and in particular to a TOPCon cell, a preparation method and equipment. Background Art

[0002] In order to improve the equipment capacity utilization rate, the TOPCon aluminum oxide deposition process uses a single-slot double-insert method, that is, two silicon wafers are pasted back to back to deposit single-sided aluminum oxide. However, in the actual process, due to the poor fit between the wafers, aluminum oxide is easily plated around to the back of the silicon wafer, resulting in poor appearance and high back contact resistance.

[0003] Patent document CN117107214A, announced on November 24, 2023, discloses a method for reducing the wrap-around plating of aluminum oxide film prepared by TOPCon cells, so that when the aluminum oxide film is deposited on the front of the silicon substrate using ALD equipment, in the second reaction, water vapor and ozone are used alternately as precursors, and under the joint action of a water vapor amount ranging from 30-70%, the wrap-around plating range can be reduced to 6-7mm, and the conversion efficiency is 24.957-25.03%; thereby, on the basis of ensuring the conversion efficiency of the battery cell, reducing the color difference of the appearance edge, reducing the differences in the slurry and sintering on the back of the silicon substrate, and avoiding the risk of poor EL.

[0004] At present, in order to improve and solve the problem of back-side plating, the TOPCon alumina deposition process mainly adopts a single-slot single-insert method, which can achieve double-sided alumina, and then match the back side with a back slurry that enhances the burn-through property. In this way, the consistency of the back side appearance is better, but the loss of production capacity is too much. Therefore, there is also a method of reducing the slot spacing of the aluminum boat and then superimposing a single slot single-insert method to make up for some of the production capacity loss. However, when the slot spacing is reduced, the uniformity of alumina deposition on the silicon wafer surface becomes worse. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a TOPCon battery, preparation method and equipment to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0074] Compared with the control group, Example 1 of the present invention has improved appearance and reduced contact resistance, which is caused by the removal of AlOx plating on the back of the silicon wafer.

[0075] A TOPCon battery is manufactured based on the above-mentioned preparation method, including a silicon wafer obtained by S12.

[0076] A device, reference Figure 1-8 The method is based on the above-mentioned preparation method and is used for removing AlOx plating on the back of the silicon wafer in S10. The method comprises a cell body 1, in which a plurality of rollers 2 are arranged. The cell body 1 is loaded with a reaction solution, and the liquid level of the reaction solution is set at a position of 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the diameter of the roller 2.

[0077] Specifically, Figure 1 The equipment used in S10 includes a spray chamber, a HON3 tank, an HF tank, a rinsing chamber and a drying chamber in sequence along the conveying direction of the silicon wafer; both the HON3 tank and the HF tank can use the structure of the cell body 1, that is, the reaction solution loaded in the cell body 1 can be an HNO3 solution, preferably with a mass fraction of 2%-30% and a temperature of 5-10°C, or an HF solution, preferably with a mass fraction of 5%-35% and a temperature of 20-30°C; along the conveying direction of the silicon wafer, the length of the silicon wafer is greater than the span of three adjacent rollers 2, but less than the span of four adjacent rollers 2; the height of the reaction solution level is set at 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the diameter of the roller 2, so that the roller 2 can roll down, the bottom is attached to the solution and then rotates to the upper part, and then the bottom of the silicon wafer, that is, the back of the silicon wafer is in contact with the solution attached to the outer surface of the roller 2 to achieve corrosion removal and plating.

[0078] Compared with the prior art, an apparatus proposed in an embodiment of the present invention combines a roller 2 with a pool body 1 and is loaded with a reaction solution whose liquid level is set at 1 / 3 to 2 / 3 of the diameter of the roller 2, so that when the roller 2 rolls, while conveying the silicon wafer, the roller 2 is attached to the solution at the bottom of the roll, and at the top of the roll, the solution attached to the outer surface contacts the back of the silicon wafer to achieve corrosion removal and wrap-around plating, thereby improving the appearance of the silicon wafer and reducing the contact resistance on the back of the silicon wafer.

[0079] In actual use, the roller 2 is usually made of glass or other materials to prevent corrosion by nitric acid solution. Such materials are prone to slipping when they are stained with the solution and then roll in contact with the silicon wafer, and the silicon wafer may become skewed during transportation.

[0080] In another embodiment of the present invention, the roller 2 can be raised and lowered in the pool body 1, and the side wall of the pool body 1 is provided with an undulating component for driving the roller 2 to reciprocate and rise and fall. Along the conveying direction of the roller 2 to the silicon wafer, among every three adjacent rollers 2, the roller 2 at the end close to the conveying direction of the silicon wafer first rises and then resets, and at the same time, the roller 2 at the end close to the conveying direction of the silicon wafer first drops and then resets. Specifically, no less than three rollers 2 are arranged in the pool body 1; a position sensor is arranged in the pool body 1, and the undulating component is controlled and operated by the position sensor, and the position sensor is arranged near The position sensor near the pool body 1 is used to enter one end of the silicon wafer. When it detects that the silicon wafer has completely entered the pool body 1, it controls the operation of the undulating component to drive the adjacent rollers 2 in groups of three in the conveying direction of the silicon wafer; the grouping of the rollers 2 is based on the conveying direction of the silicon wafer, and is three times and can be repeatedly divided into a group in sequence until the last roller 2 of the last group is the last roller 2 in the conveying direction; for example, when there are five rollers 2, the first, second, and third rollers 2 are a group, and then the second, third, and fourth rollers 2 are a group, and finally the third, fourth, and fifth rollers 2 are a group. The front and rear rollers 2 of the same group rise and fall synchronously and have the same height change, and the middle roller 2 maintains the initial position. In actual use, among the rollers 2 of the same group, after one of the front and rear rollers 2 rises and the other falls, the rollers 2 of this group are inclined downward along the direction of silicon wafer conveying, and the silicon wafer conveyed above the rollers 2 of this group can directly slide down with the rolling of the rollers 2. This sliding mode is controllable compared to slipping, and sliding makes the back of the silicon wafer contact with the reaction solution on the surface of the rollers 2 better and more evenly, and the quality of corrosion and de-plating is good; in addition, when the silicon wafer slides to the roller 2 behind the roller 2 of the group, it can resist the next roller 2 that is not in the group, so that even if the silicon wafer is slipping and tilting, the resistance between the silicon wafer and the surface of the roller 2 can be corrected; further, the reciprocating lifting and lowering of each roller 2 can act on the reaction solution in the pool body 1, so that the reaction solution remains undulating, reducing the sinking of chemical substances caused by standing still, and avoiding the concentration of the upper layer of the solution from dropping below the required value.

[0081] As the preferred technical solution of this embodiment, a lifting bin 3 is provided on the side wall of the pool body 1, and a lifting arm 4 is elastically lifted in the lifting bin 3. One end of the lifting arm 4 is bent around the inner side of the pool body 1 and is sleeved on the rotating shaft of the roller 2. The undulating component is used to drive the lifting arm 4 to rise and fall. Specifically, the lifting arm 4 is in an N shape, bypassing the solid side wall between the pool body 1 and the lifting bin 3, and the two ends extend into the pool body 1 and the lifting bin 3 respectively, and a spacing is left between the inner wall of the upper part and the upper end of the solid side wall bypassed by the lifting arm 4; the lifting arm 4 is arranged on the outer side of one end in the lifting bin 3. A slider 5 is provided, and a slide groove 6 is provided on the side wall of the lifting bin 3 away from the pool body 1. The slider 5 is lifted and lowered in the slide groove 6, and an elastic member 7 is provided in the slide groove 6 to connect one or both ends of the lifting direction of the slider 5. The setting of the elastic member 7 makes the roller 2 stationary in the initial position, that is, the middle position of the lifting range, and when the roller 2 is driven by the undulating component, the elastic member 7 can be deformed and the roller 2 tends to restore the initial position; the lifting arms 4 and the corresponding undulating components are connected to the axial ends of the roller 2, and they run synchronously to keep the roller 2 in a horizontal state.

[0082] As a preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the undulating component includes a first rolling belt 8 and a second rolling belt 9 which are rollingly arranged in the lifting bin 3. The first rolling belt 8 is arranged near the end of the silicon wafer conveying direction, and the second rolling belt 9 is arranged near the end of the silicon wafer conveying direction. An undulating block 10 is arranged on the lifting arm 4, a lifting block 11 is arranged on the first rolling belt 8, and a pressing block 12 is arranged on the second rolling belt 9.
