[0002] Back contact solar cells are solar cells that have all metal contacts on the back of the cell. The main advantage of back contact solar cells is that they can maximize the illumination area on the front of the cell, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency. The PN junction and metal contacts of back contact solar cells are on the back of the cell, and the P and N regions are alternately arranged in a fork shape. If the P and N regions are not isolated, leakage problems are likely to occur.

Under this method, the P region and the N region are not isolated when the polysilicon is diffused, resulting in the presence of two impurity atoms, boron and phosphorus, at the junction, which in turn affects the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the battery.

[0024] The embodiment of the present application aims to provide a back-contact solar cell and a method for preparing the same. In the technical solution of the present application, a silicon dioxide mask layer is prepared on the isolation region before diffusion to form polysilicon. The silicon dioxide mask layer in the isolation region blocks the high-temperature diffusion of impurity atoms, effectively alleviating the problem of reduced photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the cell caused by the coexistence of two impurity atoms, boron and phosphorus, at the junction of the P region and the N region. In addition, the technical solution of the present application prepares a silicon dioxide mask layer on the isolation region, and does not prepare a polysilicon layer in the isolation region, so there is no need for alkaline solution etching, thereby avoiding damage to the silicon substrate and improving the stability of the battery.

[0025] The present application provides a method for preparing a back-contact solar cell, comprising: An isolation region, a P region and an N region are provided on the back side of the silicon wafer, wherein the isolation region is between the P region and the N region; forming a silicon dioxide mask layer only on the isolation region; After forming the silicon dioxide mask layer on the isolation region, forming a P-type polysilicon layer in the P region; After forming the silicon dioxide mask layer on the isolation region, forming an N-type polysilicon layer in the N region; After forming the P-type polysilicon layer and the N-type polysilicon layer, the silicon dioxide mask layer is removed.

[0070] Table 1

[0071] Referring to the detection data of the above-mentioned embodiments 1-15, it can be known that before diffusion to form polysilicon, a silicon dioxide mask layer is prepared on the isolation area. The silicon dioxide mask layer in the isolation area blocks the high-temperature diffusion of impurity atoms, effectively alleviating the problem of decreased photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery caused by the coexistence of two impurity atoms, boron and phosphorus, at the junction of the P region and the N region; and there is no laser damage, which can increase the short-circuit current and open-circuit voltage of the battery, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.

[0072] Referring to the test data of the above-mentioned Example 1 and Examples 5-6, it can be seen that optimizing the thickness of the silicon dioxide mask layer is beneficial to blocking the diffusion of impurity atoms at the junction, and can effectively alleviate the problem of decreased photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery caused by the coexistence of boron and phosphorus impurity atoms at the junction of the P region and the N region, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.

[0073] With reference to the detection data of the above-mentioned Example 1 and Examples 7-9, it can be seen that optimizing the preparation method of the silicon dioxide mask layer can improve the deposition quality of the silicon dioxide mask layer, which is beneficial to blocking the diffusion of impurity atoms at the junction, and can effectively alleviate the problem of decreased photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery caused by the simultaneous presence of boron and phosphorus impurity atoms at the junction of the P region and the N region, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery.

[0074] It can be seen from the test data of the above-mentioned embodiment 1 and embodiments 10-11 that optimizing the thickness of the first polysilicon layer can improve the stability and passivation effect of the interface, thereby further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0075] Referring to the test data of the above-mentioned embodiment 1 and embodiments 12-13, it can be known that optimizing the thickness of the second polysilicon layer can improve the stability and passivation effect of the interface, thereby further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0076] Referring to the detection data of the above-mentioned Example 1 and Examples 14-15, it can be known that limiting the parameters of each area, that is, patterning the back side of the silicon wafer, can enhance the light absorption capacity of the silicon wafer, thereby generating current gain, and further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0077] The above-mentioned embodiments 1-15 are optimized manufacturing process routes of back-contact solar cells, which have the characteristics of high process stability. It should be noted that the manufacturing process route of back-contact solar cells can also be other process routes, and it is only necessary to prepare a silicon dioxide mask layer on the isolation area before diffusion to form polysilicon to block the high-temperature diffusion of impurity atoms.

[0078] In summary, before the diffusion to form polysilicon, the present application prepares a silicon dioxide mask layer on the isolation area. The silicon dioxide mask layer in the isolation area blocks the high-temperature diffusion of impurity atoms, effectively alleviating the problem of decreased photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery caused by the simultaneous presence of boron and phosphorus impurity atoms at the junction of the P region and the N region.
