Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a solar cell and the solar cell. Background Art
[0002] At present, for solar cells with fine grid lines and main grid lines, the fine grid lines and main grid lines are generally printed and sintered simultaneously. In the existing method of synchronously printing fine grid lines and main grid lines, the fine grid lines and main grid lines are generally made of high-temperature slurry containing glass powder components, so that the high-temperature slurry can pierce and destroy the area of the passivation anti-reflection layer it contacts during the sintering process, so as to achieve the purpose of forming an ohmic contact between the fine grid lines and the doped layer. However, the existing method of synchronous printing and sintering inevitably causes the main grid lines to contact the doped layer, resulting in metal recombination, which causes the solar cell to have a relatively high opening voltage loss. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a method for preparing a solar cell and a solar cell, which prevents a main grid line on at least one main surface of the solar cell from contacting a doping layer, so as to effectively reduce the opening voltage loss of the solar cell.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a solar cell, comprising:
[0006] Step A: forming a main grid line on at least one main surface of a solar cell by curing the printed low-temperature paste, wherein:
[0007] In addition to the main grid lines formed by curing the low-temperature paste, other grid lines of the solar cell are formed by high-temperature sintering of printed high-temperature paste, and the step of curing the printed low-temperature paste is after the step of forming other grid lines.
[0008] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a solar cell prepared by the preparation method provided by the embodiment of the first aspect, comprising: a main grid line formed by curing and printing a low-temperature paste and other grid lines formed by high-temperature sintering and printing a high-temperature paste, wherein:
[0009] The main grid line formed by the low-temperature slurry is located on at least one main surface of the solar cell;
[0010] Other grid lines formed by the high temperature paste are distributed on two main surfaces of the solar cell;
[0011] The main gate lines formed by the low-temperature slurry are formed after the other gate lines are formed.
[0012] The technical solution of the first aspect of the above invention has the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. The method for preparing a solar cell provided in an embodiment of the present invention forms a main grid line on at least one main surface of a solar cell by curing a printed low-temperature paste, that is, the main grid line on at least one main surface of the solar cell is formed by printing a low-temperature paste, and the low-temperature paste can be formed into a main grid line by low-temperature curing, which can prevent the main grid line formed by the low-temperature paste from piercing a passivation layer, thereby preventing the main grid line on at least one main surface of the solar cell from contacting with a doping layer of the solar cell, thereby effectively reducing the opening voltage loss of the solar cell.
[0014] 2. Compared with high-temperature slurry, the low-temperature slurry contains different organic carriers, conductive metal particles, etc. In particular, the low-temperature slurry does not contain glass powder that can etch or damage the passivation layer. The low-temperature slurry combined with low-temperature curing can achieve good conductive function of the main grid line while avoiding the damage of the passivation layer of the solar cell by the curing of the low-temperature slurry, so that the passivation layer can better isolate the doping layer and the main grid line formed by the curing of the low-temperature slurry, thereby avoiding the main grid line formed by the low-temperature slurry from contacting the doping layer to form metal recombination, effectively reducing the opening voltage loss of the solar cell, and increasing the opening voltage of the solar cell, thereby further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the passivated contact solar cell.

[0020] In the prior art, the main grid lines and fine grid lines of TOPCon cells are generally formed by synchronous sintering (i.e., co-firing after the slurry for forming the main grid lines and the slurry for forming the fine grid lines are printed). This co-firing method, whether printing the main grid lines first and then the fine grid lines, or printing the fine grid lines first and then the main grid lines, will have the problem of the main grid lines burning through the passivation layer and the main grid lines contacting the doped layer. The contact between the main grid lines and the doped layer causes the metal composite of the solar cell to be still high, which has a greater negative impact on the electrical performance of the solar cell. This also means that the photoelectric conversion rate of TOPCon cells in the prior art still has a certain room for improvement.
[0021] In order to solve the above problems existing in existing solar cells (especially TOPCon cells), an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a solar cell and a solar cell prepared based on the method.
[0022] Figure 1 FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the main process of a method for preparing a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method for preparing the solar cell may include the following steps:
[0023] Step S101: forming main grid lines on at least one main surface of a solar cell by curing printed low-temperature paste, wherein, in addition to the main grid lines formed by curing the low-temperature paste, other grid lines of the solar cell are formed by high-temperature sintering and printing high-temperature paste, and the step of curing the printed low-temperature paste is after the step of forming other grid lines.
[0024] The curing of the printed low-temperature paste refers to printing the low-temperature paste on at least one main surface with sintered fine grid lines according to the distribution of the main grid lines, and then curing the low-temperature paste.
[0025] The low temperature paste refers to a paste containing conductive metals (such as silver, copper, etc.) that can be cured at low temperature (180°C to 240°C), which is completely different from the high temperature paste used to form fine grid lines. In a preferred embodiment, the low temperature paste does not contain glass powder.
[0026] In the method for preparing the solar cell provided in the above-mentioned embodiment, the main grid lines of at least one main surface of the solar cell are formed by curing the printed low-temperature paste, that is, the main grid lines of at least one main surface of the solar cell are formed by printing the low-temperature paste, and the low-temperature paste can be formed into the main grid lines by low-temperature curing, which can prevent the main grid lines formed by the low-temperature paste from piercing the passivation layer, thereby preventing the main grid lines of at least one main surface of the solar cell from contacting the doping layer of the solar cell, thereby effectively reducing the opening voltage loss of the solar cell.
[0027] In addition, compared with high-temperature paste, the low-temperature paste used to form the main grid line contains different organic carriers, conductive metal particles, etc., especially the low-temperature paste does not contain glass powder that can etch or damage the passivation layer, so that the low-temperature paste combined with low-temperature curing can achieve good conductive function of the main grid line while avoiding the low-temperature paste curing to damage the passivation layer of the solar cell, so that the passivation layer can better isolate the doping layer and the main grid line formed by the curing of the low-temperature paste, thereby avoiding the main grid line formed by the low-temperature paste from contacting the doping layer to form metal recombination, effectively reducing the opening voltage loss of the solar cell, and increasing the opening voltage of the solar cell, thereby further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the passivated contact solar cell.
[0028] There are three specific implementation methods for the above step S101.
[0029] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a first specific implementation of step S101 may include the following steps:
[0030] Step S1011: synchronously printing fine grid line paste and main grid line paste on the front side of the prepared solar cell substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0031] Step S1012: printing fine grid line paste on the back side of the prepared solar cell substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0032] Step S1013: high temperature sintering to form electrode contacts;
[0033] Step S1014: printing low-temperature busbar slurry on the back side of the solar cell substrate including front fine grid lines, front main grid lines and back fine grid lines, and curing the low-temperature busbar slurry at low temperature.
[0034] It can be understood that after the above step S1011, the fine grid line paste and the main grid line paste printed synchronously in step S1011 can be preliminarily cured to facilitate the operation of the subsequent step S1012.
[0035] Among them, the function of step S1013 is mainly to form corresponding gate lines through high-temperature sintering of the fine gate paste and main gate paste printed in step S1011 and the fine gate paste printed in step S1012, and in the process of forming the gate lines, the fine gate lines formed by the fine gate paste pierce the passivation layer and contact the doping layer.
[0036] pass Figure 2 The process shown achieves low temperature slurry formation of the main grid lines on the back of the solar cell.
[0037] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the second specific implementation of the above step S101 may include the following steps:
[0038] Step S1011': printing fine grid line paste on the front side of the prepared solar substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0039] Step S1012': synchronously printing fine grid line paste and main grid line paste on the back side of the prepared solar cell substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0040] Step S1013': high temperature sintering to form electrode contacts;
[0041] Step S1014 ′: printing low-temperature busbar paste on the front side of the solar cell substrate including the front fine grid lines, the back fine grid lines and the back busbars, and curing the low-temperature busbar paste at low temperature.
[0042] It can be understood that after the above step S1011 ′, the fine grid line paste printed in step S1011 ′ may be preliminarily cured to facilitate the operation of the subsequent step S1012 ′.
[0043] The function of step S1013' is mainly to form corresponding gate lines by high-temperature sintering the fine gate paste printed in step S1011' and the fine gate paste and main gate paste printed in step S1012', and in the process of forming the gate lines, the fine gate lines formed by the fine gate paste pierce the passivation layer and contact the doping layer.
[0044] pass Figure 3 The process shown enables low temperature slurry to form the main grid lines on the front side of the solar cell.
[0045] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the third specific implementation of the above step S101 may include the following steps:
[0046] Step S1011": printing fine grid line paste on the front side of the prepared solar substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0047] Step S1012”: printing fine grid line paste on the back side of the prepared solar cell substrate including the doping layer or the emitter;
[0048] Step S1013": high temperature sintering to form electrode contacts;
[0049] Step S1014": printing low-temperature busbar slurry on the front and back sides of the solar cell substrate including the front fine grid lines and the back fine grid lines, respectively, and curing the low-temperature busbar slurry at low temperature.
[0050] It can be understood that after the above step S1011 ″, the fine grid line paste printed in step S1011 ″ may be preliminarily cured to facilitate the operation of the subsequent step S1012 ″.
[0051] Among them, the function of step S1013" is mainly to form corresponding gate lines by high-temperature sintering of the fine gate paste printed in step S1011" and the fine gate paste printed in step S1012", and in the process of forming the gate lines, the fine gate lines formed by the fine gate paste pierce the passivation layer and contact the doping layer.
[0052] pass Figure 4 The process shown is to realize low-temperature slurry to form the main grid lines on the front and back of the solar cell respectively.
[0053] Furthermore, for the above Figures 2 to 4 Any of the embodiments shown, after the high-temperature sintering step and before printing the low-temperature main grid line paste, further includes: performing light injection or electric injection treatment on the solar substrate after high-temperature sintering. Because the temperature of the light injection / electric injection treatment is higher than the curing temperature of the low-temperature paste, the light injection / electric injection process step needs to be set between the process of forming fine grid lines and the process of forming main grid lines. By adding light injection and electric injection treatment after the high-temperature sintering step and before printing the low-temperature main grid line paste, it is prevented that the temperature of the light injection / electric injection process destroys the main grid lines formed by the low-temperature paste.
[0054] Specifically, the curing temperature of the printed low-temperature busbar paste is 180° C. to 240° C., and the curing time is 8 to 15 minutes. By controlling the curing temperature and curing time, the busbar formed by the low-temperature busbar paste can be completely cured, and the formed busbar has better conductive properties.
[0055] Specifically, the specific implementation of printing the low-temperature busbar paste and curing the low-temperature busbar paste at low temperature in the above embodiment may include: printing the low-temperature busbar paste multiple times in a stacked manner and performing low-temperature curing after each printing of the low-temperature busbar paste.
[0056] Among them, before the last printing of the low-temperature main grid line paste, the curing temperature of the low-temperature main grid line paste printed each time is 180°C ~ 240°C, and the curing time is 30s ~ 70s; by controlling the curing temperature and curing time of the low-temperature main grid line paste printed each time before the last printing of the low-temperature main grid line paste, curing in a short time reduces the fluidity of the low-temperature main grid paste, ensuring the stability of the main grid line while preventing the main grid line from being over-cured and causing partial structural rupture.
[0057] The curing temperature of the low-temperature main grid line paste printed for the last time is 180° C. to 240° C., and the curing time is 8 to 15 minutes.
[0058] By means of the above-mentioned multiple layered printing of low-temperature busbar paste, the line height of the busbar formed by the low-temperature busbar paste can be increased while the line width remains unchanged, thereby improving the aspect ratio of the busbar formed by the low-temperature busbar paste, reducing the line resistance of the busbar line and the series resistance of the solar cell, so as to effectively improve the fill factor of the solar cell and further improve the cell efficiency.
[0059] Furthermore, the method for preparing the solar cell further includes: a step of preparing a solar cell substrate including a doping layer and an emitter.
[0060] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the specific implementation of the step of preparing a solar substrate including a doping layer and an emitter may include the following steps:
[0061] Step S001: Diffusing a P-type doping element on the front side of an N-type silicon substrate to form a p+ emitter;
[0062] Step S002: sequentially preparing a tunneling oxide passivation layer and an N-type doped polysilicon layer on the back side of the N-type silicon substrate;
[0063] The tunneling oxide passivation layer is generally made of silicon oxide, and its thickness is 1 to 3 nm.
[0064] Wherein, the thickness of the N-type doped polysilicon layer is 50-150 nm.
[0065] Step S003: preparing a front passivation anti-reflection layer and a back passivation anti-reflection layer.
[0066] It can be understood that after the above-mentioned step S001 and before step S002, it can further include: removing the emitter and the silicon glass layer containing P-type doping elements stacked in sequence on the back and side of the N-type silicon substrate through hydrofluoric acid etching, and removing the silicon glass layer containing P-type doping elements on the front of the N-type silicon substrate; and placing the N-type silicon substrate in an alkaline solution to polish the back of the silicon wafer or prepare a small tower base structure.
[0067] The front passivation anti-reflection film / back passivation anti-reflection film may include at least one of aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, gallium oxide, silicon nitride, aluminum nitride, and silicon oxynitride.
[0068] Furthermore, an embodiment of the present invention provides a solar cell prepared by the preparation method provided in the above embodiment. The solar cell includes: a main grid line formed by curing and printing a low-temperature paste and other grid lines formed by high-temperature sintering and printing a high-temperature paste, wherein:
[0069] A main grid line formed by low temperature slurry is located on at least one main surface of the solar cell;
[0070] Other grid lines formed by high temperature paste are distributed on two main surfaces of the solar cell;
[0071] The main grid lines formed by the low temperature slurry are formed after the other grid lines are formed.
[0072] Specifically, the front main grid lines of the solar cell are formed by curing the low-temperature paste.
[0073] The back main grid of the solar cell is formed by curing the low-temperature paste.
[0074] The solar cell of this structure has a main grid line on at least one main surface formed by printing a low-temperature paste, and the low-temperature paste can be formed into a main grid line by low-temperature curing. This can prevent the main grid line formed by the low-temperature paste from piercing the passivation layer, thereby preventing the main grid line on at least one main surface of the solar cell from contacting the doping layer of the solar cell, thereby effectively reducing the opening voltage loss of the solar cell.
[0075] Optionally, the front main grid lines and / or the back main grid lines of the solar cell are formed by curing a low-temperature paste.
[0076] Optionally, both the front side fine grid lines and the back side fine grid lines of the solar cell are formed by high temperature sintering and printing of high temperature paste.
