Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular to a crystalline silicon / perovskite stacked cell and a preparation method thereof, and a photovoltaic module. Background Art
[0002] Perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells currently boast an efficiency of 34.6%, far exceeding the 27.09% of the mainstream crystalline silicon single-junction cells. However, due to the high sintering temperature of conventional high-temperature silver pastes, which can significantly damage the thin-film structure, perovskite cells have stringent sintering temperature requirements, requiring the use of low-temperature pastes with a curing temperature of 250°C or less (especially ultra-low-temperature pastes with a curing temperature of 150°C or less) to form electrodes. However, the use of low-temperature pastes to form electrodes in the metallization preparation of perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem cells results in high contact resistance between the electrodes and the transparent electrode due to the low curing temperature, and is prone to detachment. This limits the application of low-temperature pastes, especially ultra-low-temperature pastes, in perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells. Consequently, the current metallization development of perovskite / crystalline silicon two-terminal tandem cells has been slow.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a technology that can reduce the contact resistance in perovskite / crystalline silicon tandem solar cells.

[0021] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. In the accompanying drawings, the sizes of layers, regions, and elements and their relative sizes may be exaggerated for clarity. The same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application and are not to be construed as limiting the present application. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other unless there is a conflict.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a crystalline silicon / perovskite tandem cell, comprising: S100: forming a transparent metal oxide layer on the perovskite top cell substrate; S200: treating the first region of the transparent metal oxide layer using a hydrogen plasma process to form a metal layer; S300: preparing a metal electrode on the metal layer.
[0023] In an embodiment of the present application, a crystalline silicon / perovskite stacked cell includes a crystalline silicon bottom cell and a perovskite top cell, the perovskite top cell includes a perovskite top cell substrate, and the perovskite top cell substrate has a hole transport layer, a perovskite light absorption layer and an electron transport layer stacked in sequence.
[0024] In the preparation method of the crystalline silicon / perovskite stacked cell, a transparent metal oxide layer is first formed on the perovskite top cell substrate, and then a hydrogen plasma process is used to treat the first region (i.e., the metal region) of the transparent metal oxide layer so that the metal oxide in the first region is reduced to metal to form a metal layer; a metal electrode is formed on the metal layer so that the metal electrode is in direct contact with the metal layer, thereby effectively reducing the contact resistance between the metal electrode formed by an ultra-low temperature slurry (a conductive slurry with a curing temperature of less than or equal to 150°C) and the transparent conductive oxide layer (i.e., the transparent metal oxide layer).
[0025] In some embodiments, in step S300, a conductive paste can be printed on the metal layer and cured to form a metal electrode; the curing temperature of the conductive paste is 150°C or less (e.g., 110°C, 120°C, 130°C, 135°C, 140°C, 145°C, or 150°C). For example, a silver paste with a curing temperature of 120°C can be used to print the conductive paste on the metal layer, followed by curing at 120°C for 30 minutes to form the metal electrode. This metal electrode is in direct contact with the metal layer, resulting in low contact resistance. Furthermore, the presence of the metal layer enhances adhesion between the metal electrode and the transparent metal oxide layer, reducing metal electrode shedding.
[0026] In some embodiments, step S200, treating the first region of the transparent metal oxide layer using a hydrogen plasma process, includes: S220: exposing the first region of the transparent metal oxide layer to hydrogen plasma for 20 minutes to 40 minutes.
[0027] Hydrogen plasma processing is a highly effective surface treatment technology. By controlling the parameters of the hydrogen plasma, the metal oxide in the transparent metal oxide layer can be reduced to metal, forming a metal layer with excellent conductivity. The reduction treatment time is 20-40 minutes (e.g., 20 minutes, 25 minutes, 30 minutes, 35 minutes, 40 minutes), which can reduce the metal oxide in the transparent metal oxide layer to metal, forming a structurally ordered and controllable metal layer. If the treatment time is too short, the interaction between the hydrogen plasma and the transparent metal oxide layer surface is insufficient, resulting in a less pronounced treatment effect. If the treatment time is too long, the transparent metal oxide layer may overreact, resulting in surface defects or performance degradation. For example, exposing the first region of a transparent metal oxide layer (ITO) to hydrogen plasma for 30 minutes reduces the ITO in this region to metallic indium, forming a metal layer. This metal layer effectively reduces the contact resistance between the subsequent electrode and the transparent metal oxide layer.
[0028] In an optional embodiment, prior to step S220, treating the first region of the transparent metal oxide layer with a hydrogen plasma process further includes step S210, placing the perovskite top cell substrate having the transparent metal oxide layer in a hydrogen plasma treatment device. In some embodiments, in step S210, the hydrogen plasma process has at least one of the following conditions: The temperature inside the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is 80°C-120°C; The pressure inside the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is 80mTorr-120mTorr; The radio frequency power of the power supply of the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is 0.1W / cm 2 -0.3W / cm 2 ; The hydrogen flow rate is 5ml / min-15ml / min.
[0029] Too high or too low a temperature may affect the treatment effect. When the temperature inside the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is 80℃-120℃ (for example, 80℃, 90℃, 100℃, 110℃, 120℃), the hydrogen plasma can undergo an effective physical and chemical reaction with the transparent metal oxide layer while avoiding unnecessary thermal damage to the sample.
[0030] When the pressure in the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is controlled to be 80mTorr-120mTorr (for example, 80mTorr, 90mTorr, 100mTorr, 110mTorr, 120mTorr), hydrogen molecules can be effectively ionized to form plasma, while ensuring that the interaction between the plasma and the surface of the transparent metal oxide layer is sufficient. If the pressure is too high, the plasma density may increase but the energy distribution may be uneven, affecting the treatment uniformity; if the pressure is too low, plasma generation will be difficult and the ideal treatment effect cannot be achieved.
[0031] When the radio frequency power of the power supply of the hydrogen plasma treatment equipment is 0.1W / cm 2 -0.3W / cm 2 (For example, 0.1W / cm 2 , 0.15W / cm 2 , 0.2W / cm 2 , 0.25W / cm 2 , 0.3W / cm 2 ), which is used to excite hydrogen to generate plasma, which can fully ionize the hydrogen molecules to form hydrogen plasma with appropriate energy and activity, and then produce effective chemical reactions with the surface of the transparent metal oxide layer. If the power is too high, the plasma energy may be too high, causing excessive damage to the surface of the transparent metal oxide layer; if the power is too low, it will not be able to generate sufficiently active plasma, and the reduction effect will be poor.
[0032] A stable hydrogen flow rate can ensure the continuous and stable generation of plasma. Controlling the hydrogen flow rate to 5ml / min-15ml / min (for example, 5ml / min, 8ml / min, 10ml / min, 12ml / min, 15ml / min) can generate an appropriate amount of stable hydrogen plasma, thereby maintaining sufficient contact and reaction between the hydrogen plasma and the surface of the transparent metal oxide layer.
[0033] In an optional embodiment, in step S220, a patterned mask may be provided on the transparent metal oxide layer to expose the first region, i.e., the first region of the transparent metal oxide layer is exposed to the hydrogen plasma. In other embodiments, no mask may be provided on the transparent metal oxide layer, and the entire transparent metal oxide layer may be exposed to the hydrogen plasma to reduce the metal oxide on the entire transparent metal oxide layer.
[0034] In an optional embodiment, in step S300, the conductive paste includes a low-temperature silver paste; wherein the curing temperature of the low-temperature silver paste is less than or equal to 150°C.
[0035] In an optional embodiment, before forming the transparent metal oxide layer on the perovskite top cell substrate, the method for preparing the crystalline silicon / perovskite tandem cell further includes: Providing an n-type crystalline silicon substrate (c-Si), wherein the n-type crystalline silicon substrate has a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite to each other and has a thickness of 200-400 μm; A first intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon (ia-Si) layer is formed on a first surface of a crystalline silicon substrate by using a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique.
[0036] Using PECVD technology, a second intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon (ia-Si) layer is formed on the second surface of the crystalline silicon substrate; Using PECVD technology, a p-type microcrystalline silicon (p-uc-Si) layer is prepared on the first intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon (ia-Si) layer; Using PECVD technology, an n-type microcrystalline silicon (n-uc-Si) layer is formed on the second intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon (ia-Si) layer; A first indium tin oxide (ITO) layer is deposited on a p-type microcrystalline silicon (p-uc-Si) layer using magnetron sputtering technology; A second indium tin oxide (ITO) layer is deposited on the n-type microcrystalline silicon (p-uc-Si) layer using magnetron sputtering technology; A nickel oxide (NiO) layer is formed on the second indium tin oxide (ITO) layer using magnetron sputtering technology; The perovskite light-absorbing layer was prepared on the nickel oxide (NiO) layer using a slit coating technique; Thermal evaporation technology was used to prepare a C60 layer as an electron transport layer on the perovskite light-absorbing layer; Atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology was used to prepare a tin dioxide (SnO2) layer on the C60 layer as an electron transport layer to form the perovskite top cell substrate.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, after forming the first indium tin oxide (ITO) layer, the method for preparing the crystalline silicon / perovskite stacked cell further includes: preparing a first electrode on the first indium tin oxide (ITO) layer using a screen printing technique.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, a transparent metal oxide layer is formed on the perovskite top cell substrate using magnetron sputtering technology. In an optional embodiment, the material of the transparent metal oxide layer includes one or more of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO), zinc-doped indium oxide (IZO), tungsten-doped indium oxide (IWO), molybdenum-doped indium oxide (IMO), cerium-doped indium oxide (ICO), fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO), aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO), and boron-doped zinc oxide (BZO).
[0039] In an optional embodiment, the crystalline silicon bottom cell includes but is not limited to one of a PERC cell, a HJT cell, a TOPCon cell, and an IBC cell.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a crystalline silicon / perovskite tandem cell, comprising: Perovskite top cell substrate 21; A transparent metal oxide layer 22 and a metal electrode 24 are stacked on a perovskite top cell substrate 21; A metal layer 23 is provided in the transparent metal oxide layer.
[0041] In an alternative embodiment, the metal layer includes a metal oxide and a metal formed by reducing the metal oxide.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, the transparent metal oxide layer includes one or more of tin-doped indium oxide, zinc-doped indium oxide, tungsten-doped indium oxide, molybdenum-doped indium oxide, fluorine-doped tin oxide, cerium-doped indium oxide, aluminum-doped zinc oxide, antimony-doped tin oxide, and boron-doped zinc oxide.
[0043] In an embodiment of the present application, when the transparent metal oxide layer comprises one or more of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO), zinc-doped indium oxide (IZO), tungsten-doped indium oxide (IWO), molybdenum-doped indium oxide (IMO), or cerium-doped indium oxide (ICO), the metal layer comprises indium. When the transparent metal oxide layer comprises one or more of fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) or antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO), the metal layer comprises tin. When the transparent metal oxide layer comprises one or more of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) or boron-doped zinc oxide (BZO), the metal layer comprises zinc. The transparent metal oxide layer comprises a metal oxide, and the metal layer comprises the corresponding metal oxide and a metal formed by reduction of the metal oxide. For example, when the transparent metal oxide layer is tin-doped indium oxide (ITO), the metal layer comprises indium; when the metal oxide is fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), the metal layer comprises tin. This structural design can effectively reduce the contact resistance between the metal electrode and the transparent metal oxide layer and increase the adhesion between the metal electrode and the transparent metal oxide layer.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the metallization degree of the metal layer gradually increases along the first direction D1 (ie, the direction from the perovskite top cell substrate to the transparent metal oxide layer).
[0045] In the embodiments of the present application, the metal layer comprises a metal oxide and a metal substance. The closer to the perovskite top cell substrate, the more metal oxide in the metal layer and the less metal content; the further away from the perovskite top cell substrate, the less metal oxide in the metal layer and the more metal content. That is, the metallization degree of the metal layer gradually increases from the perovskite top cell substrate toward the transparent metal oxide layer. This is because the farther away from the perovskite top cell substrate the transparent metal oxide layer is, the more it is exposed to the hydrogen plasma, the more metal is reduced, and thus the metallization degree increases.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the interface of the metal layer in contact with the metal electrode is composed of a single metal.
[0047] The interface between the metal layer and the metal electrode contains only metal elements, not metal oxides. For example, when the metal layer contacts the metal electrode, the interface contains only metal elements such as indium or tin, and does not contain metal oxides such as ITO or FTO. This can further reduce the contact resistance between the metal layer and the metal electrode.
[0048] In an optional embodiment, the width of the metal layer is greater than or equal to the width of the metal electrode.
[0049] The width of the metal layer is greater than or equal to the width of the metal electrode, which can ensure a sufficiently large contact area between the metal electrode and the metal layer, helping to reduce contact resistance and thus improve the overall electrical performance of the battery.
[0050] In an optional embodiment, the thickness of the metal layer is 10 nm-100 nm. For example, the thickness of the metal layer can be 10 nm, 30 nm, 50 nm, 70 nm, or 100 nm. A metal layer with a suitable thickness is conducive to current transmission.
