[0031] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0032] The following describes an optimization method and system for preparing HJT battery components based on reliability testing proposed in an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] Figure 1 A flowchart of an optimization method for preparing a HJT battery assembly based on reliability testing proposed in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:
[0034] Step S101, in the process of preparing an amorphous silicon passivation layer by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), the plated amorphous silicon film is optimized by a quenching process, and a wet heat test and a component packaging efficiency loss CTM test are performed on the HJT battery component prepared based on the optimized amorphous silicon film under different CVD radio frequency times. With the goal of maximizing the radio frequency time, the extended CVD radio frequency time is determined based on the test results.
[0035] Specifically, this step analyzes the impact of the amorphous silicon passivation layer preparation process on the reliability of the component. It should be noted that, since the HJT solar cell uses CVD to prepare the amorphous silicon passivation layer, the deposited amorphous silicon film is relatively loose, reaching a certain thickness, the film naturally falls off and adheres to the surface of the silicon wafer under stress, and powder will fall off in the chamber. The subsequent growth of the TCO film will not be able to completely cover the particle dust attached to the silicon wafer, providing a diffusion channel for water vapor and air. During the long-term use of the battery, water vapor will diffuse into the amorphous silicon layer, affecting the conversion efficiency and output power of the battery and the component. Therefore, it is necessary to deposit high-quality, high-density films to reduce powder loss. Due to the serious powder loss of amorphous silicon, especially the p-side i layer thickness is larger, the film in the chamber is thicker, resulting in a shorter cleaning cycle. The reference RF time in the conventional process is about 20000s to 23000s and the chamber needs to be washed. To this end, this application analyzes the impact of different RF times in the CVD process on the reliability of batteries and components, and ensures the reliability of components on the premise of improving the battery conversion efficiency and the operating time (uptime) of the CVD equipment.
[0036] Among them, in the process of depositing intrinsic amorphous silicon by CVD process, this application adopts the intermittent glow process, that is, the coating process of turning off the glow power supply, to improve the quality of the film, thereby alleviating the powder loss phenomenon and extending the RF use cycle of the CVD equipment. When determining the extended RF time specifically, the HJT battery components prepared by the amorphous silicon film optimized by the intermittent glow process under different CVD RF times are subjected to various reliability tests such as wet heat test and component packaging efficiency loss (Cell To Module, referred to as CTM) test. Then, based on the test results, the maximum RF time allowed to meet the reliability of the component is determined.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present application, the coated amorphous silicon film is optimized by the pyrolysis process, including: detecting multiple performance parameters of two types of HJT cells prepared under baseline conditions and under the pyrolysis process, respectively; comparing the differences in multiple performance parameters of the two types of HJT cells, adjusting the process parameters of the pyrolysis process by determining whether the difference is within a preset range, and performing the pyrolysis process according to the determined process parameters to optimize the quality of the amorphous silicon film.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, it is necessary to first analyze the effect of the amorphous silicon passivation layer quenching process on the battery performance, and determine that the quenching process added in this step has basically no effect on the battery conversion efficiency, so as to ensure the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery. In specific implementation, analyze multiple electrical performance parameters of the HJT battery prepared according to the method of this step and the benchmark method in the relevant technology, and determine whether the quenching process has an impact on the battery performance by comparison. The test results are shown in the following Table 1
[0039] Table 1 The influence of CVD quenching process on battery performance parameters
[0040]
[0041] It can be seen from Table 1 that the quenching process has little effect on the battery conversion efficiency (Eta), so the optimization method of the present application can be implemented.
[0042] Furthermore, after preparing HJT cells using amorphous silicon thin films deposited using a CVD calorimetry process, the effect of the RF time of the equipment under the CVD process on the cell reliability was analyzed.
[0043] In order to more clearly describe the specific implementation process of determining the extended CVD radio frequency time in the present application, an optimization method proposed in an embodiment of the present application is exemplified below. Figure 2 A flowchart of a method for determining the extended CVD RF time based on reliability testing proposed in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:
[0044] In step S201, a plurality of HJT batteries prepared under different CVD radio frequency times are subjected to a damp heat test in a high temperature and high humidity environment. After the damp heat test duration exceeds a preset duration, the damp heat attenuation parameters of the plurality of HJT batteries are detected.
[0045] For example, two groups of bare cells prepared under different RF times were tested in an environmental test chamber at 85℃RH85%. According to the test results, the bare cells under different RF times have significant differences in reliability performance under high temperature and high humidity environments. After the DH time exceeds 48h, the difference in DH reliability of the cells under different RF times begins to appear. The attenuation of the battery prepared under long RF time is greater. After the DH time exceeds 90h, the DH attenuation of the battery cell under longer RF time has exceeded 5% (i.e., the DH attenuation parameter), indicating that the battery with longer RF time and at the end of the cavity washing period does cause water vapor to diffuse into the battery due to the presence of dust.
[0046] Step S202, performing a damp heat test and a CTM test on a plurality of HJT battery assemblies prepared under different CVD radio frequency times, and detecting the CTM values and damp heat attenuation parameters of the plurality of HJT battery assemblies.
[0047] For example, the battery was prepared as a component, and two groups of HJT battery double-glass components prepared under different RF times were selected, among which the first group was in the middle stage of the cavity cleaning, the RF time was 10000S, and the number of components produced was 20; the second group was in the end of the cavity cleaning, the RF time was 20000S, and the number of components was 4. Then the CTM value and damp heat test of the two groups of components were tested and analyzed. Figure 3 The influence of different RF time on the CTM of the module is given. It can be found that the CTM of the module in the middle of the cleaning chamber is 98.88%, while the CTM of the module in the end of the cleaning chamber is 98.60%. There is a certain difference between the two, and with the increase of RF time and the increase of dust, the CTM value of the module decreases slightly, and the difference between the modules also increases.
[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the DH1000 reliability of components prepared at different RF times is compared and analyzed. It can be found that the reliability changes of the two groups of components are not obvious, and there is no clear pattern, indicating that the double-glass component packaging effectively prevents the diffusion of water vapor into the interior of the battery.
[0049] Step S203, determining the extended CVD RF time in combination with the wet heat attenuation parameters of the multiple HJT batteries and the CTM values of the multiple HJT battery assemblies.
[0050] Specifically, the CVD RF time that can meet the component reliability requirements is determined by combining the wet heat attenuation parameters of multiple batteries obtained in the above steps (i.e., the wet heat attenuation ratios of batteries prepared at different RF times) and the CTM values of multiple HJT battery assemblies (i.e., the CTM values of battery assemblies prepared at different RF times). For example, among the test results of multiple groups of CVD RF times obtained in the above steps, the RF time with the longest duration and wet heat attenuation parameters and CTM values that meet the requirements is selected, and this RF time is used as the final extended CVD RF time
[0051] For example, in one example, the test and comparison were performed in the above manner, and the chamber cleaning time of the CVD equipment that met the above reliability test requirements was increased to 26,000 seconds.
[0052] Step S102 , performing various types of reliability tests on battery components using different physical vapor deposition (PVD) technologies to prepare transparent conductive thin films TCO, and determining a target PVD technology to be used based on the test results.
[0053] Specifically, this step analyzes the impact of PVD deposition technology on component reliability. First, a transparent conductive thin film TCO is prepared according to the existing PVD technology, and HJT cells are prepared using the obtained different TCO films. Then, various types of reliability tests are performed on different HJT cells, and the selected PVD technology is determined based on the test results.
[0054] In one embodiment of the application, various types of reliability tests are performed on battery components that use different physical vapor deposition (PVD) technologies to prepare transparent conductive thin films TCO, and the target PVD technology to be used is determined based on the test results, including: performing wet heat tests and CTM tests on HJT battery components prepared using different PVD equipment, and determining the target PVD equipment to be selected based on the test results; and then performing various types of reliability tests on HJT battery components prepared using the target PVD equipment, using tests whose test results do not meet the standards as target tests, and performing target tests with multiple test standards, and optimizing the preparation process of the target PVD equipment based on the test results of the target tests.
[0055] For example, first control the two groups of PVD equipment to be selected, and use different PVD technologies to prepare laminated TCO films. The target materials used in each device are consistent. Then analyze the impact of different PVD equipment on battery performance, mainly analyzing battery efficiency, FF value and Isc value. Then, for the batteries prepared by different PVD equipment, half-piece double-glass modules were made, and the CTM values of the two groups of modules were tested to determine that there was basically no difference between the two. The DH1000 reliability of the two groups of modules was further tested and analyzed, and the PVD equipment corresponding to the battery module with better DH1000 reliability performance, that is, the DH attenuation ratio was selected as the target PVD equipment.
[0056] Furthermore, in order to further improve the performance of the components and obtain high-stability components, six reliability tests were continued on the components prepared by the selected target PVD equipment, including: hot and cold cycle TC test, the above-mentioned DH1000 test, reverse + hot spot test, UV resistance UV15 test, HF10 test and PID192 test. Assume that only the attenuation result of DH1000 in the test results is greater than 2%, and all others are less than 2%, meeting the relevant control standards. In order to further study the maximum attenuation items of wet heat DH and hot and cold cycle TC, this embodiment has been tightened by increasing the DH test time from the IEC standard 1000h to 3000h, and the number of TC cycles from 200 cycles to 600 cycles, and performing 3 times the IEC standard test. According to the test results, the impact of hot and cold cycles on component performance is basically stable after 400 cycles, but for the wet and hot DH test, the component power attenuation has not been saturated, which needs further improvement.
[0057] Furthermore, in view of the test result that the power attenuation in the wet heat DH test did not show saturation, the preparation process of the target PVD equipment was adjusted accordingly, for example, the selected target material was adjusted.
[0058] Step S103, re-testing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the multiple batches of HJT batteries after storage and standing, re-classifying the multiple batches of HJT batteries according to the updated photoelectric conversion efficiency, and selecting multiple HJT batteries located at the same level after re-classification to prepare battery assemblies.
[0059] Specifically, this step analyzes the impact of the dark state attenuation phenomenon of HJT batteries on the CTM value and reliability of the components. Since HJT batteries have a certain dark decay phenomenon, that is, after the battery is prepared, packaged and put into storage, the battery efficiency decays to a certain extent as time goes by. For example, the efficiency decay statistics of batteries with different efficiency levels after 2 months of storage show that the efficiency decay basically increases with the increase in efficiency, and the average decay is 0.15% in 2 months. Due to the efficiency decay, the efficiency distribution of batteries in the same level is too large, and the electroluminescence EL detection of the components shows uneven light and dark in the obtained image. When solar cells with different conversion efficiencies are located in the same component, the CTM value of the component is affected due to the mismatch of electrical properties, and the reliability of the component is at risk.
[0060] To this end, this embodiment re-classifies and tests the multiple batches of cells placed. By analyzing the range comparison of the conversion efficiency of the solar cells at the same level before and after the test, it can be found that the dark decay of the cells causes the efficiency fluctuation at the same level to be significantly amplified, and the maximum range difference at the same level is large, which brings about the problem of light and dark patches, and also affects the CTM value of the component.
[0061] For example, through a specific experimental test, the changes in the CTM value of the components before and after the re-testing were found. Before the battery was retested, 26,429 components were produced, with an average group CTM value of 98.24%. After the battery was retested, 24,472 components were produced, with an average component CTM value of 98.74%, and the component CTM value increased by 0.5%. At the same time, the trend of CTM decreasing with the battery efficiency was alleviated after the retest. Before and after the retest, the EL light and dark degradation ratio of the component improved significantly. Before the retest, the comprehensive light and dark degradation ratio of the component was 1.54%, and the degradation ratio was reduced to 0.53% after the test. Therefore, through the above experiments, it can be seen that the present application re-classifies multiple batches of HJT batteries, and selects multiple HJT batteries located in the same gear after re-classification to prepare battery components, which can effectively improve the CTM value of the component.
[0062] In one embodiment of the present application, before re-classifying multiple batches of HJT batteries according to the updated photoelectric conversion efficiency, it also includes: performing hot spot tests and power loss tests on the degraded components and normal components composed of HJT batteries with different efficiency levels at different time points; calculating the power loss deviation of the degraded components and normal components, and determining the maximum standing time of the prepared HJT batteries based on the hot spot test results and the power loss deviation.
[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, the reliability test was conducted on the components with brightness degradation, mainly for the hot spot problem during the use of the components that may be caused by the brightness and darkness phenomenon in the EL image. No obvious difference was found in the EL image of the components before and after the hot spot test. Combining the hot spot test results of the brightness degradation components and conventional components, it can be obtained that the hot spot tests of the brightness degradation components and normal components are both qualified, but after the hot spot, the power loss of the brightness degradation components is greater than that of the normal components. Therefore, for the subsequent use of the brightness degradation components, there may be a risk of excessive power attenuation. Therefore, for silicon heterojunction components, it is necessary to complete the component production as soon as possible after the battery preparation is completed to reduce the risk of brightness and darkness patches in the components.
[0064] Furthermore, in this embodiment, hot spot tests and power loss tests are performed on two groups of components at different time points in the above manner, and the power loss deviation of the light-dark degradation components and the normal components is calculated. The maximum standing time of the prepared HJT battery is determined based on the hot spot test results and the power loss deviation. For example, the test time point at which the yellow hot spot test is qualified but the power loss deviation reaches the maximum allowable deviation threshold is used as the maximum standing time of the prepared HJT battery. It is necessary to ensure that the components are prepared between the maximum standing times in the future to reduce the light-dark degradation phenomenon.
[0065] Step S104, performing the damp heat test, CTM test and UV tolerance test on the HJT battery components using different packaging films, and selecting the structure and type of the packaging film according to the test results.
[0066] Specifically, this step analyzes the impact of different encapsulation films on the CTM value and reliability of the module. In order to further improve the electrical performance and reliability of the module, the impact of different encapsulation films on the CTM of the module is tested and analyzed.
[0067] In one embodiment of the present application, the structure and type of the encapsulation film are selected based on the test results, including: determining the laminated structure used by the encapsulation film based on the test results of the damp heat test; performing ultraviolet UV tolerance tests on HJT battery modules using different encapsulation films at different total irradiances, and determining the type of encapsulation film to be selected based on the test results.
[0068] For example, three groups of different types of packaging films were used to make half-cell double-glass modules, with two modules made in each group. By analyzing the electrical properties of each module, it was found that the CTM values of modules made with different packaging films remained basically unchanged, with a difference of 0.1%.
[0069] Furthermore, in order to verify the influence of different encapsulation films on the reliability of components, this embodiment also performs DH1000 reliability tests on components with different encapsulation films. According to the test results, the EPE film with the most attenuation is the one with the EVA / POE / EVA laminated structure, which has both the good adhesion of EVA and the good water barrier of POE, so the reliability of the components prepared by it is the best. Furthermore, this embodiment can use an encapsulation film with the EVA / POE / EVA laminated structure.
[0070] Furthermore, the ultraviolet reliability of HJT components is studied. In this embodiment, the ultraviolet (UV) tolerance of HJT components is tested and analyzed. It is assumed that the UV band of the UV test is 280nm-400nm, of which the UVB band irradiance of 280nm-320nm accounts for 3%-10%, and the light uniformity is ±15%. During the experiment, the temperature is 60±5℃, and the total irradiance is tested at 15, 30, 45 and 60kwh / m2 for component power. According to the test results, the reliability test results of the components made of the two packaging films used in this embodiment, namely the UV cutoff and high-transmittance films, for the UV cutoff film, after UV60, the component power attenuation is 1.73%, and for the high-transmittance film, the UV60 component power attenuation reaches 3.07%. Although the component UV test results of the two packaging films are qualified, the component prepared by the UV cutoff film has better reliability. At the same time, from the perspective of various parameters, UV mainly affects the filling factor of the component. By comparing the transmittance of different types of packaging films and the EQE of HJT cells, it can be found that UV cut-off films can filter ultraviolet light below 380nm, thereby protecting the amorphous silicon passivation layer of HJT solar cells.
[0071] Therefore, through this embodiment, it can be determined that the UV cut-off film with EVA / POE / EVA laminated structure is used as the packaging film to carry out the packaging process of the HJT battery assembly.
[0072] In summary, the optimization method for preparing HJT battery components based on reliability testing in the embodiment of the present application first optimizes the amorphous silicon film through the extinguishing process in the CVD process, performs wet heat test and CTM test on HJT battery components under different CVD radio frequency times, and maximizes the radio frequency time as the goal, and determines the extended CVD radio frequency time according to the test results; then, various types of reliability tests are performed on battery components using different PVD technologies to prepare TCO, and the target PVD technology used is determined; then, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of multiple batches of HJT batteries after storage and standing is re-tested, and multiple batches of HJT batteries are re-classified; finally, the HJT battery components using different packaging films are subjected to wet heat test, CTM test and UV tolerance test, and the structure and type of the packaging film are selected. Thus, the method is based on various types of reliability tests such as wet heat test and CTM test, optimizes the corresponding preparation process at each stage of preparing the battery component, and prepares the component according to the optimized process, and can prepare HJT battery components that meet the requirements of reliability in many aspects, thereby improving the reliability of the prepared HJT battery components. Therefore, this method can obtain efficient and stable HJT component products, which can ensure that after the products are made into components, they can obtain high power generation and ensure long-term stable power generation.
[0073] In order to implement the above embodiment, the present application also proposes an optimization system for preparing HJT battery components based on reliability testing. The figure is a structural schematic diagram of an optimization system for preparing HJT battery components based on reliability testing proposed in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the system includes:
