Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a TBC cell and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] A solar cell is a device that directly converts solar energy into electrical energy, and its working principle is based on the photovoltaic effect. An IBC (Interdigitated Back Contact) cell and a TOPcon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) cell can be stacked to form a TBC cell. The TBC cell absorbs the tunneling oxide passivated contact technology of the TOPCon cell and the technology of preparing P regions and N regions arranged in an interdigitated and spaced manner on the back surface of the IBC cell. In the existing process route, in order to prepare the N+ region, the local P+ region, and the isolation region therebetween (the structure formed by the combination of these three is usually called the P-I-N structure), two high-temperature doping processes, two amorphous silicon formation processes, two laser processes, and multiple mask processes are required. The process is cumbersome and the process time is long, which seriously affects the production capacity, causes additional manufacturing costs, and there are too many high-temperature processes in the existing process route. Two high-temperature dopings (phosphorus doping temperature is 700 - 1000 °C, boron doping temperature is 900 - 1200 °C), which greatly affect the minority carrier lifetime of the substrate silicon wafer and thus have an adverse effect on the cell efficiency.

[0003] Currently, in the related art, two high-temperature doping processes, two amorphous silicon formation processes, two laser processes, and multiple mask processes are required. The process is cumbersome and the process time is long, which seriously affects the production capacity, causes additional manufacturing costs, and there are too many high-temperature processes in the existing process route, two high-temperature dopings; at the same time, because some TBC cell processes need to add high-temperature and wet processes again for manufacturing FSF, the process of manufacturing FSF will be directly omitted.

[0004] The existing crystalline silicon solar cell technology has the following problems: 1. In order to reduce high-temperature and wet processes, the preparation of FSF is not carried out, resulting in efficiency loss; 2. The BSG thickness is relatively thick, the thickness > 100 nm and the oxygen content of the silicon wafer is relatively high, the B-O recombination is serious and the boron diffusion or phosphorus diffusion temperature is relatively high; 3. It needs to go through multiple high-temperature, film opening, masking, and wet processes. The process is cumbersome, the pollution is large, and the process time is long, which is not conducive to the introduction of mass production processes and reduces the cell efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] CVD as mentioned in the present application refers to Chemical Vapor Doping.

[0006] BSG as mentioned in the present application refers to Borosilicate Glass.

[0007] The PSG described in this application refers to Phosphosilicate glass.

[0008] The FSF described in this application refers to Front Surface Field.

[0009] The BSF described in this application refers to Back Surface Field.

[0010] In order to simplify the process flow, precisely adjust the phosphorus and boron doping levels of the front surface field and the back surface field, significantly reduce the series resistance, increase the current density, improve the passivation performance and anti-UV attenuation performance of the TBC cell, and improve the cell conversion efficiency, this application provides a TBC cell and its manufacturing method.

[0011] In the first aspect, this application provides a manufacturing method of a TBC cell, adopting the following technical solution:

[0012] A manufacturing method of a TBC cell includes the following steps:

[0013] S1. Deposit a tunneling oxide layer and a polysilicon layer: sequentially deposit a tunneling oxide layer and a polysilicon layer on the surface of the substrate silicon wafer.

[0014] S2. Deposit a dopant source layer and a mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type: sequentially deposit a dopant source layer and a mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type outside the polysilicon layer on the back of the substrate silicon wafer, and sequentially deposit a dopant source layer and a mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type outside the single-crystalline silicon layer on the front of the substrate silicon wafer.

[0015] S3. Open the film and clean: Remove the dopant source layer and the mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type on the back part of the substrate silicon wafer to form a reserved area.

[0016] S4. One-step co-doping: Co-dope the dopant source layers of impurities of different conductivity types in one step to form a back P region, an N region, and a front surface field on the front.

[0017] S5. Texturing: Form a textured pyramid structure with a doping concentration gradually decreasing from the side away from the substrate silicon wafer to the side close to the substrate silicon wafer, that is, the doping concentration at the tip of the pyramid structure is higher than that at the bottom of the pyramid structure, the height of the pyramid structure is 0.1 μm - 3 μm, and the doping concentration decreases by 10 - 10 4 times.

[0018] Optionally, the height of the pyramid structure can be 0.3 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, etc.

[0019] Optionally, the substrate silicon wafer is an N-type silicon wafer or a P-type silicon wafer.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, by sequentially depositing a tunneling oxide layer and a polysilicon layer on the back surface of the substrate silicon wafer first, and then sequentially depositing a dopant source layer and a mask layer of impurities of the first conduction type, the dopant source layer and the mask layer of impurities of the first conduction type on the back surface of the substrate silicon wafer are located outside the polysilicon layer. By performing the steps of opening the film and cleaning, part of the dopant source layer and the mask layer of impurities of the first conduction type are removed to form a reserved space. During the one-step co-doping process, dopant source layers of impurities of the first conduction type with two different electricities can be simultaneously formed on the back surface of the silicon wafer, that is, the P region and the N region on the back surface, and the front surface field on the front surface of the substrate silicon wafer is simultaneously formed. Moreover, without multiple masking and mask removal processes, the phosphorus and boron doping levels of the front surface field and the back surface field can be precisely adjusted; after texturing, the FSF of the original surface pyramids is retained, enhancing the pyramid tips or surface passivation of the texture, and at the same time promoting the carriers on the front surface to move towards the back field, which can significantly reduce the series resistance of the TBC cell, increase the current density, and improve the anti-UV attenuation performance of the TBC cell; therefore, the process flow of the TBC cell is simplified, the process time is shortened, the high temperature is reduced, and the cell conversion efficiency is improved.

[0195] Combining Examples 2.1 - 2.3 and Examples 1.1 - 1.3 and combining with the appendix Figure 2-3It can be seen that when depositing the dopant source layer and the mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type on the front side of the silicon wafer substrate (i.e., Examples 2.1 - 2.3), after high-temperature one-step co-doping and forming the pyramid structure through texturing, the mask layer plays a role in blocking the doping of impurities of the second conductivity type to the front side of the silicon wafer substrate during high-temperature diffusion. Moreover, the concentration at the tip of the formed pyramid is higher than that at the bottom of the pyramid, and it has the same doping source as the polysilicon region of impurities of the first conductivity type on the back side of the silicon wafer substrate, enabling the textured pyramid to retain the original FSF, enhancing the textured tip or textured passivation, while promoting the movement of carriers on the front surface towards the back field, which can significantly reduce the side base resistance loss and the total series resistance of the BC cell, improve the current density, and improve the UV attenuation resistance performance of the BC cell; when not depositing the dopant source layer and the mask layer of impurities of the first conductivity type on the front side of the silicon wafer substrate (i.e., Examples 1.1 - 1.3), after high-temperature one-step co-doping, the front side of the silicon wafer substrate has the same doping source as the polysilicon region of impurities of the second conductivity type on the back side of the silicon wafer substrate. After texturing, the formed pyramid structure can enhance the textured tip or textured passivation, while promoting the movement of carriers on the front surface towards the back field, improve the current density, and improve the UV attenuation resistance performance of the BC cell.
