Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of solar cells, and more particularly, to a back-contact solar cell and its encapsulation method. Background Art

[0002] In the technical field of solar cells, a single crystalline silicon solar cell has a small power generation capacity and is very fragile. In practical applications, solar cells need to be encapsulated into modules. Among them, for a back-contact cell, positive and negative grid lines are usually printed in a cross arrangement on the back of the cell. The main grids are arranged longitudinally in a cross pattern, and the fine grids are arranged horizontally in a cross pattern. The positive electrode is disconnected at the intersection with the negative fine grid and an insulating adhesive is printed, and the negative electrode is disconnected at the intersection with the positive fine grid and an insulating adhesive is printed. Then, the back of the cell is turned upwards, and tin-lead solder tapes are laid directly above the positive and negative electrodes, and the solder tapes are pressed by spring pressure pins, and infrared lamps are used for heating to achieve welding.

[0003] However, during the welding process, the heating temperature of the infrared lamp is relatively high. Due to the large deviation in the thermal expansion coefficients of the tin-lead solder tape and the cell, single-sided welding easily causes the bowing of the cell, which increases the fragmentation rate during the lamination process when encapsulating the cell into a module. Moreover, a fully glass module cannot be repaired, which greatly affects the reliability of the product quality and increases the manufacturing cost. In addition, during the outdoor use of the module, moisture will penetrate from the backplane and the frame positions to the inside. Coupled with long-term ultraviolet radiation, temperature and other factors, the EVA film connecting the cell and the glass will age and decompose, generating acidic groups that corrode the cell grid lines, resulting in power attenuation of the cell.

[0004] In view of this, how to provide a new encapsulation method to improve the problems of warping, cracking and film aging of back-contact cell modules during the encapsulation process is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to improve the problems of serious warping of the cell during welding, cracking or fragmentation of the cell during lamination, and film aging of back-contact cell modules in the prior art, the present application provides a back-contact solar cell and its encapsulation method, and its technical solution is as follows:

[0006] An encapsulation method for a back-contact solar cell, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Step 1: Use screen printing technology to print metal paste on the glass surface to form conductive lines corresponding to the positive and negative electrodes of the main grids of the cell, and perform high-temperature sintering on the glass printed with the paste to obtain conductive glass;

[0008] Step 2: Print conductive adhesive on the silver paste contact points of the positive and negative electrodes of the main grids on the back of the cell, and print UV glue dots in the non-main grid areas;

[0009] Step 3: Connect the positive contact point of the battery cell to the positive contact point on the conductive glass, and connect the negative contact point of the battery cell to the negative contact point on the conductive glass. Make the UV glue dots contact the non-conductive area of the conductive glass.

[0010] Step 4: Press the conductive glass on the surface of the battery cell, heat the conductive glass on the back of the battery cell to cure the conductive adhesive, and at the same time irradiate the conductive glass with a UV lamp.

[0011] Step 5: Print the glass solder on the four peripheral edges of the conductive glass, heat the four sides of the glass with a laser, melt the solder, and perform sealing after rapid cooling.

[0012] By printing the glass solder on the four peripheral edges of the glass, melting it and then rapidly cooling it to connect with the battery cell, a tight connection can be formed between the four sides of the glass and the battery cell, thereby preventing moisture from entering the component interior and causing corrosion during the subsequent outdoor use of the battery cell.

[0013] Preferably, in Step 5, the glass solder is lead silicate glass, with a printing width of 5 - 10 mm and a thickness of 30 - 100 μm. The main components of the lead silicate glass are SiO2 and PbO, which have unique high refractive index and high volume resistance, good wettability with metals, and can block X-rays and γ-rays. In this application, the lead silicate glass solder is heated and melted to connect the front and back glasses of the component and perform sealing. It is a vacuum glass sealing material, with a low melting point to avoid glass cracking after heating, high reliability, resistance to moisture, acids, and alkalis, strong sealing performance, and can isolate air to achieve a vacuum effect.

[0014] Preferably, the lead silicate glass includes 40 - 70% by mass of PbO and 20% - 30% by mass of SiO2.

[0015] Preferably, in Step 5, the laser is an infrared laser with a wavelength of 10.6 μm and a heating temperature of 400 - 600 °C.

[0016] Preferably, in Step 1, the metal paste is copper or aluminum, with a high-temperature sintering temperature of 800 - 1000 °C and a sintering time of 10 - 30 min.

[0017] Preferably, in Step 2, the UV glue dots are evenly distributed in the non-main grid area, with a diameter of 5 - 10 mm and a thickness of 100 - 300 μm. After traditional metal solder tapes are heated, they expand more than the battery cells. After cooling, due to the solder joints hindering the free contraction of the solder tapes, there is shrinkage stress, which causes the battery cells to bend. In the present invention, by using UV glue to replace the traditional metal solder tapes and directly adhering the battery cells to the glass, the problem of battery cell shrinkage and bending can be improved.

[0018] Preferably, in the fourth step, the curing temperature of the conductive adhesive is 100~200°C, and the heating time is 10~20 s. The conductive adhesive is an adhesive that can effectively bond various materials and has electrical conductivity. It usually consists of a matrix resin and conductive fillers, namely conductive particles. Through the bonding action of the matrix resin, the conductive particles are combined together to form a conductive path to achieve the conductive connection of the adhered materials.

[0019] Preferably, in the fourth step, the power of the UV lamp is 1~2 KW, and the time is 2~4 s.

[0020] Preferably, before the first step, the following steps are further included: successively performing cleaning and texturing, front boron diffusion, and etching and alkaline polishing on the battery wafers; successively depositing a tunneling oxide layer and a phosphorus-doped polysilicon layer on the back of the battery wafers; RCA cleaning; depositing a front antireflection layer and a back antireflection layer on the front and back of the battery wafers respectively.

[0021] The present invention also provides a back-contact battery, which is obtained by encapsulating using the above encapsulation method.

[0022] The beneficial effects produced by adopting the technical solution of the present invention are as follows:

[0023] The present invention seals and connects the glass edge and the battery wafer through a glass solder, thereby avoiding water vapor from entering the inside of the component and causing corrosion during the subsequent outdoor use of the battery wafer. In addition, the present invention uses a conductive adhesive and a UV adhesive in combination to connect with the glass on the battery wafer, and then cures the conductive adhesive and the UV adhesive simultaneously, directly adhering the battery wafer to the glass, which can improve the problem of shrinkage and bending of the battery wafer.

[0029] In this embodiment, glass solder is used on the solar cell to hermetically connect the glass edge to the solar cell, thereby preventing moisture from entering the component interior and causing corrosion during subsequent outdoor use of the solar cell. In addition, the present invention uses a combination of conductive adhesive and UV adhesive to connect the solar cell to the glass, and then cures the conductive adhesive and UV adhesive simultaneously to directly bond the solar cell to the glass, which can improve the problem of solar cell shrinkage and bending.
