Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic equipment, and in particular to a method for preparing a crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film. Background Art
[0002] Crystalline silicon double-sided multi-layer passivation film is an advanced surface treatment technology applied to crystalline silicon solar cells. This technology achieves fine passivation of the silicon wafer surface by depositing multiple layers of thin films of different materials on the front and back of the crystalline silicon wafer to reduce the recombination loss of charge carriers, thereby improving the energy conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the battery. These thin film layers usually contain intrinsic amorphous silicon (ia-Si:H), doped amorphous silicon (n / a-Si:H or p / a-Si:H), silicon nitride (SiNx), silicon oxide (SiOx), etc. Each layer has its specific function, and they work together to passivate surface defects, optimize interface properties and protect silicon wafers from environmental influences. Double-sided passivation is particularly suitable for crystalline silicon solar cells that generate electricity on both sides, which can effectively utilize the incident light from the back and increase power generation.
[0003] The existing crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film is mainly a film made of silicon nitride material. When the silicon nitride film is prepared by the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method, high-speed ion bombardment will cause compressive stress inside the film. This is because the ions hit the surface of the film, causing the silicon atoms to be closely arranged and the volume to be reduced, thereby generating compressive stress, which may cause the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film with silicon nitride as the main component to deform or even crack, thereby causing battery degradation. Therefore, the present invention provides a method for preparing a crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0037] 1. The present invention improves the crack resistance of the modified multilayer composite film with silicon nitride as the main component by coating the surface of the modified multilayer composite film with phosphate soft glass liquid. During the high-temperature treatment process, the phosphate component can help promote grain boundary movement, which is very beneficial to improving the quality and passivation effect of the silicon nitride / silicon interface. In addition, the elastic modulus of the phosphate soft glass is relatively low, and it can act as a buffer layer between the silicon nitride film and the substrate, which helps to alleviate the overall deformation and crack problems of the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film caused by the high stress of silicon nitride.
[0038] 2. The present invention places the multilayer composite film in a treatment solution whose main components are ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, azobisisobutylcyanide and a cross-linking agent diaminohydroquinone. The cross-linking agent diaminohydroquinone can react with the active points on the surface of the multilayer composite film to form covalent bonds, thereby achieving cross-linking modification between the film layers, thereby improving the adhesion between the multilayer composite film and the phosphate soft glass liquid, so that the prepared modified multilayer composite film has a slight cross-linking ability, so that when the phosphate soft glass film is subsequently coated, the phosphate soft glass liquid can be better wrapped on the surface of the modified multilayer composite film, thereby improving the bonding ability between the phosphate soft glass and the modified multilayer composite film, and reducing the possibility of deformation of the double-sided multilayer passivation film of crystalline silicon.
[0039] 3. The present invention deposits a silicon dioxide film on the surface of a silicon nitride film through vapor phase deposition. Since silicon dioxide itself has good insulating properties, it can enhance the dielectric strength and insulating properties after combining with the silicon nitride film. In addition, the vapor phase deposition technology can control the film growth at the atomic level, forming silicon dioxide nucleation points on the silicon nitride surface and gradually expanding outward to form a continuous film, so that a high-quality interface directly connected by covalent bonds is formed between silicon dioxide and silicon nitride, thereby improving the adhesion and electrical properties between the silicon dioxide film layer and the silicon nitride film layer, thereby improving the physical and electrical properties of the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film.

The crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film prepared in step S5 is recorded as Comparative Example 2.
[0104] Comparative Example 3:
[0105] Compared with Example 1, the difference of Comparative Example 3 is that step S2.2 is not performed in step S2, specifically: "S2: preparing a multilayer composite film
[0106] S2.1: The surface of the silicon nitride coating is hydrophilized by plasma surface treatment technology. The silicon nitride coating is placed in a plasma treatment machine, evacuated to 0.3 mbar, and then ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer ETFE is introduced at 0.4 ml / min.

During the whole grafting treatment process, the vacuum pressure in the plasma treatment machine is maintained within 0.9 mbar during the plasma grafting, and a double-layer composite film is obtained. The thickness of the double-layer composite film is 100 nm.
[0107] S3: Processing of multi-layer composite films
[0108] S3.1: Butyl acetate and EtOH are mixed in a mass ratio of 1:4 to prepare a mixed solvent, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, azobisisobutylcyanide and a cross-linking agent diaminohydroquinone are mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1:2 and added into the mixed solvent in an amount of 20% of the total mass of the system to obtain a treatment solution;

The crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film prepared in step S5 is recorded as comparative example 3.
[0110] The crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation films of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were placed in an accelerated UV aging device, respectively, and irradiated with a cumulative irradiation of 200 kWh / m 2 , and then refer to GB / T31034-2014 to test the elongation at break of the test specimens before and after aging.
[0111] Table 1: Elongation at break
[0112] Elongation at break (%) Example 1 157 Example 2 155 Example 3 154 Comparative Example 1 106 Comparative Example 2 119 Comparative Example 3 128
[0113] In the table, the elongations at break of Examples 1-3 are 157%, 155% and 154% respectively. The elongation at break can reflect the crack resistance of the tested sample. The higher the elongation at break, the less likely the tested sample is to break and the better the crack resistance.
[0114] The elongation at break of comparative example 1 is only 106%. It can be seen that when the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film with silicon nitride film as the main material is prepared by the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method, high-speed ion bombardment will cause compressive stress inside the film, resulting in large internal stress of the silicon nitride film, which is prone to deformation and cracking when exposed to the external environment for a long time, and finally leads to fracture.
[0115] The elongation at break of Comparative Example 2 is 119%, which shows that the presence of phosphate soft glass improves the crack resistance of the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film. However, due to the lack of treatment, the adhesion between the phosphate soft glass and the multilayer composite film is insufficient, and the performance improvement is limited.
[0116] The elongation at break of comparative example 3 is 128%, which shows that the vapor-deposited silicon dioxide film on the surface of the silicon nitride film also has the effect of improving the physical properties of the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film, and the phosphate soft glass has a greater improvement on the crack resistance of the crystalline silicon double-sided multilayer passivation film.
