Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of solar cells, and in particular to a stacked cell and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells, through a spectral segmented absorption mechanism, have achieved a theoretical efficiency limit exceeding 40%, and their laboratory efficiency has rapidly increased to 33%, becoming a key technical direction for breaking the efficiency limit of single-junction cells. However, their performance improvement is limited by the interface compatibility between the crystalline silicon bottom cell and the perovskite top cell. While the micron-scale pyramidal velvet (1-3μm height, reflectivity <10%) formed by traditional alkaline texturing methods (such as NaOH / KOH etching) can enhance light capture, the sharp pyramid tips (radius of curvature <50nm) and deep valleys lead to uneven coverage of the perovskite film, causing defects such as pinholes and cracks. At the same time, interfacial stress concentration and carrier transport obstruction cause the fill factor (FF) to drop by 5-8%, seriously restricting the efficiency improvement of the tandem cell.
[0003] To address the perovskite layer coverage issue, existing technologies use acid etching (such as immersion in HNO3 / HF / H2O solution) to perform a secondary treatment on the textured surface, reducing the pyramid height by 30-50% (to 0.5-1μm) and the roughness (Ra) from 200-300nm to 80-120nm. However, this immersion etching method creates pyramid structures of varying sizes, resulting in sharp pyramids that are not smooth. Furthermore, the porous silicon layer (20-50nm thick, 30-50% porosity) and silicate residues produced after immersion exacerbate phosphorus diffusion heterogeneity and increase the surface recombination rate, resulting in a drop of 8-12mV in the cell's open-circuit voltage (Voc) and a loss of 3-5 percentage points in fill factor, partially offsetting the efficiency gains.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a perovskite crystalline silicon stacked solar cell that can overcome the above-mentioned defects, ensure the complete and uniform deposition of the subsequent perovskite thin film layer, and improve the battery passivation level, open circuit voltage and current transmission performance.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom cell is a silicon heterojunction cell or a TOPCon cell.

[0023] The present invention also provides a method for preparing a stacked battery, comprising the following steps:
[0024] (1) Double-sided texturing of single-crystal silicon wafers to form a pyramid textured surface structure;
[0025] (2) Smoothing the pyramid velvet structure on the N side: Using HNO3 / HF / H2O solution to rinse the front side of the single crystal silicon wafer, the mass percentage of HNO3 in the HNO3 / HF / H2O solution is 30wt%-50wt%, the mass percentage of HF is 0.5wt%~5wt%, and the rinsing time is 4s~30s; then using DIO3 / HF solution to clean the front side, the ozone concentration during the cleaning process is 20ppm-60ppm, the HF concentration is 2~10wt%, and the cleaning time is 100~1000s; the single-side rinsing is carried out using a chain machine, and the rollers of the chain machine are divided into three sections, respectively. The first liquid-carrying roller, the second liquid-carrying roller, and the drying roller are sequentially operated above the N-side of the single-crystal silicon wafer. The first liquid-carrying roller carries a HNO3 / HF / H2O mixed solution, which contacts the N-side to rinse the N-side. The first liquid-carrying roller operates at a speed of 1 m / min to 6 m / min. The second liquid-carrying roller carries H2O to clean the N-side after the rounding treatment. While the N-side is being rounded, the P-side of the single-crystal silicon wafer is protected by a water film. The drying roller dries the entire cleaned single-crystal silicon wafer.
[0026] (3) Using the single crystal silicon wafer processed in step (2) as the semiconductor substrate layer, a bottom cell is prepared;
[0027] (4) A perovskite top cell is stacked on the N side of the bottom cell.
[0028] Furthermore, the steps of preparing the bottom cell are: providing a single crystal silicon wafer, sequentially performing texturing, boron diffusion, and removing BSG from the N side; smoothing the N side, depositing a tunneling oxide layer and a polysilicon layer; performing phosphorus diffusion, removing the P side by wrapping, and cleaning with a cleaning solution; depositing a passivation film layer and an anti-reflection layer, and printing electrodes.
[0029] Furthermore, the texturing concentration is 0.5-10 wt % of an alkaline solution for etching, forming a pyramid structure on both sides of the single crystal silicon wafer, and the height of the pyramid structure is 0.7 μm-1.5 μm.
[0030] Furthermore, the alkaline solution is at least one of NaOH or KOH.
[0031] Furthermore, the boron diffusion uses BCl3 as a diffusion source, the diffusion temperature is 800°C-1000°C, and the diffusion square resistance is controlled at 200Ω / □-300Ω / □.
[0032] Furthermore, the N-side BSG removal is performed using an HF solution with a concentration of 5wt% to 20wt%.
[0033] Furthermore, the P-surface removal and wrap-around plating process uses an HF solution with a concentration of 3wt%-10wt%.
[0034] Furthermore, the tunnel oxide layer and the polysilicon layer are deposited using LPCVD technology, and the thickness of the tunnel oxide layer is 1 nm to 3 nm.
[0035] Furthermore, the phosphorus diffusion uses POCl3 as a diffusion source, the diffusion temperature is 800℃-900℃, and the doping concentration is 1~5E20cm -3 .
[0036] Furthermore, the cleaning solution is a mixed solution of HF and H2O2 and a mixed solution of NH3 and H2O2.
[0037] Furthermore, the passivation film is deposited by depositing a layer of AlO on both sides of the silicon wafer using AlD atomic deposition. x The thin film forms a passivation film layer; the deposited anti-reflection film layer is deposited on both sides by PECVD x The film layer forms an anti-reflection film layer.
[0038] Furthermore, the printed electrode is formed by printing AgAl paste or Ni / Cu / Ag paste on the N side of the silicon wafer and sintering it to form a metal electrode.
[0039] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0040] The bottom cell of the stacked battery of the present invention has only a smooth pyramid structure on the N side of the velvet surface, which successfully overcomes the problem of film defects caused by the sharp pyramid structure and the bottom of the pyramid when depositing the perovskite film on the N side, and greatly improves the quality and stability of the film.
[0041] By using a single-sided rinsing process with a mixed solution of HNO3 / HF / H2O, differentiated texturing effects on the N and P sides are effectively achieved, which has significant technical advantages. It avoids the disadvantages of the traditional immersion process that causes excessive porous silicon and hydrochloride on the surface of the silicon wafer. These impurities will seriously affect the subsequent diffusion steps of the battery, thereby effectively solving the problem of reduced battery conversion rate.
[0042] In addition, after rinsing on one side, it is then cleaned and smoothed with a DIO3 / HF solution. During the DIO3 / HF solution cleaning process, HF first reacts with the produced silicates to generate fluorosilicic acid and the corresponding hydrochloric acid. Then, as the porous silicon is exposed, the strongly oxidizing O3 oxidizes the porous silicon to form SiOx, and HF cleans the SiOx. During the oxidation and cleaning process, the velvet surface gradually becomes smooth and defects are removed, achieving deep removal of porous silicon and silicates on the surface of the silicon wafer. After this series of process treatments, a uniform and small-sized pyramid structure is formed, providing ideal basic conditions for the subsequent deposition of a complete and uniform perovskite film layer on the pyramid velvet surface. In addition, the effective removal of porous silicon and silicates on the surface of the silicon wafer greatly improves the passivation level, thereby increasing the open circuit voltage, increasing the current, and significantly improving the overall performance and conversion efficiency of the battery.
[0043] The single-side rinsing process achieves precise surface treatment through the coordinated action of three rollers on a chain machine. The first roller delivers a mixed HNO3 / HF / H2O solution at an adjustable speed of 1-6 m / min, applying controlled single-side rounding to the N-side of the silicon wafer, effectively controlling the pyramidal morphology and reducing surface reflectivity. The second roller simultaneously performs a gradient water wash to prevent residual acid corrosion, while the dynamic water film protection technology on the P-side fully preserves the electrical characteristics of the PN junction. The final drying roller achieves contactless rapid drying. This technology utilizes a differentiated N / P-side treatment strategy to effectively reduce the N-side reflectivity while ensuring the integrity of the P-side passivation layer. Furthermore, the coordinated control of roller speed and solution ratio allows for precise control of the rounding process, providing excellent conditions for the subsequent preparation of the perovskite stack and significantly improving the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of the cell.

[0103] Comparative Example 5
[0104] Comparative Example 5 was prepared using a method essentially identical to Example 1, differing only in the HF content of the mixed solution of O₃, HF, and deionized water. Specifically, the HF content was 12 wt %. The pyramidal structures, after suede rounding, had a height of 0.5 μm and a radius of curvature of 80 nm. A chain-type machine was not used.
[0105] Comparative Example 6
[0106] The difference between the stacked battery of Comparative Example 6 and the stacked battery of Example 1 is that the double-sided pyramid structures of the bottom battery of Comparative Example 6 are not rounded.
[0107] Cell performance tests were conducted on Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-6. The performance parameters included cell conversion efficiency (Eta), open-circuit voltage (Uoc), current (Isc), and fill factor (FF). Eta (efficiency) represents the ratio of solar energy converted to electrical energy by the cell. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0110] As shown in Table 1, the conversion efficiency of the TOPCon perovskite tandem cells prepared by the preparation methods provided in Examples 1 to 5 is higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 6. It can be seen that the methods provided in Examples 1 to 5 of the present invention can all produce perovskite / TOPCon tandem cells with high conversion efficiency.
[0111] As shown in Table 1, compared with Example 1, Comparative Example 1 uses the immersion method instead of the rinsing method to treat the pyramid surface of the silicon wafer. The pyramid surface of the P-side is also greatly reduced. The filling and current parameters of the prepared perovskite / TOPCon stacked battery are lower than those of Example 1. It can be seen that when the P-side pyramid is too low, it will affect the current and filling, resulting in a decrease in the conversion efficiency of the prepared perovskite / TOPCon stacked battery.
[0112] Compared with Example 1, Comparative Examples 2 and 3 differ in the HNO3 / HF / H2O solution content of HNO3 and HF. The resulting n-side pyramids are taller and have a smaller radius of curvature. The opening voltage and current parameters of the resulting perovskite / TOPCon tandem cells are lower than those of Example 1. This shows that when the n-side pyramids are too tall and too sharp, they significantly affect the current, resulting in a lower conversion efficiency of the resulting perovskite / TOPCon tandem cell.
[0113] Compared with Example 1, the contents of O3 and HF acid in Comparative Examples 4 and 5 are set differently, and the resulting curvature radius is small. It can be seen that when the curvature radius is too small, the resulting pyramid is sharper, which affects the subsequent coating of the perovskite layer, resulting in a decrease in the opening voltage, current and filling of the perovskite stack battery.
[0114] Compared with Example 1, in Comparative Example 6, the double-sided pyramid structures are not rounded, resulting in the N-side pyramid being too high and too sharp, affecting the subsequent coating of the perovskite layer, and reducing the opening voltage, current and filling of the perovskite stack battery.
[0115] The present invention is further described above with the aid of specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific description herein should not be construed as limiting the essence and scope of the present invention. Various modifications made to the above embodiments by ordinary technicians in this field after reading this specification are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
