Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of solar cell technology, and more specifically, to a passivation method for TOPCon cells. Background Technology
[0002] TOPCon cells (Tunnel Oxide Passivating Contacts), especially N-type TOPCon cells, have a lower boron content in phosphorus-doped N-type crystalline silicon compared to P-type PERC cells (Passivated Emitter Rear Cells), resulting in better passivation.
[0003] Currently, the doped polycrystalline silicon layer for TOPCon solar cells mainly uses LPCVD (Low-Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition) technology. This involves combining LPCVD to prepare a polycrystalline silicon film with a traditional full diffusion process. LPCVD deposits a polycrystalline silicon thin film, followed by phosphorus diffusion. LPCVD primarily grows i-polySi by high-temperature decomposition of silane, followed by a polycrystalline silicon doping step. PECVD, on the other hand, can achieve integrated processing of silicon oxide, amorphous silicon, and doping. Specifically, it uses LPCVD thermal oxidation to deposit a tunneling oxide layer, followed by PECVD in-situ doping to prepare a Poly-Si layer, forming the back passivation layer.
[0004] Thin poly passivation is a key direction for improving the efficiency of Topcon solar cells. Compared to thick poly layers, thin poly layers have lower parasitic absorption and better optical response, which is beneficial for increasing the current of Topcon solar cells and thus improving conversion efficiency. The industry has begun to reduce the thickness of the poly layer to reduce its parasitic absorption and improve its conversion efficiency. Currently, most Topcon solar cells use PECVD / LPCVD methods to deposit the poly layer on the back side, and achieve good passivation through annealing / phosphorus diffusion. Combined with silver paste, it can also form a very beneficial ohmic contact. With the increasing maturity of Topcon technology, it is possible to thin the poly layer on the back side. Thinning the poly layer can greatly shorten the time required for cell production and significantly reduce the cost of production materials.
[0005] However, when using thin poly technology, the silver paste can easily damage the tunneling oxide layer during the metallization process, affecting the passivation performance and resulting in a higher saturation current density (J0). Therefore, a passivation technology suitable for thin poly is needed to compensate for this defect. Summary of the Invention

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.
[0037] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.
[0038] This invention provides a passivation method for TOPCon batteries, comprising the following steps:
[0039] S1. Deposit a tunnel oxide layer on the back-side polished silicon wafer;
[0040] S2. Then, the first poly layer is formed on the tunneling oxide layer;
[0041] S3. A first oxide layer is formed on the first poly layer;
[0042] S4. A second poly layer is formed on the first oxide layer;
[0043] S5. A second oxide layer is formed on the second poly layer;
[0044] S6. A third poly layer is formed on the second oxide layer;
[0045] The processing time for the first poly layer is 80s-100s, and the phosphine flow rate is 300sccm / s-320sccm / s.
[0046] This invention adds an oxide layer between poly layers, which reduces the total thickness of the poly layer while effectively controlling the silver paste etching rate. Based on the original thin poly layer, the silver paste etching rate can be better controlled, avoiding damage to the tunneling oxide layer by the silver paste, preserving better passivation performance, reducing the loss of filler factor, and greatly improving conversion efficiency.
[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, the thickness of the tunneling oxide layer is 1nm-2nm, the thickness of the first poly layer is 9nm-11nm, the thickness of the first oxide layer is 0.3nm-0.5nm, the thickness of the second poly layer is 25nm-35nm, the thickness of the second oxide layer is 0.5nm-0.7nm, and the thickness of the third poly layer is 40nm-60nm.
[0048] Based on the aforementioned thickness, the total thickness of the poly layer is between 74-106 nm, preferably 100 nm. This invention improves poly transmittance by reducing the poly layer thickness, resulting in better optical response, lower parasitic absorption, and higher short-circuit current, thus achieving high conversion efficiency. Furthermore, the inventors' research has revealed that when the poly layer thickness is below 70 nm, the thinner poly layer cannot provide sufficient doping atoms, thereby increasing contact resistivity. This leads to greater resistance for charge carriers passing through the poly layer, affecting the battery's current transport efficiency and overall battery efficiency. Conversely, when the poly layer thickness exceeds 130 nm, the poly layer exhibits poor transmittance, poor optical response, and even worse parasitic absorption and short-circuit current.
[0049] Controlling the oxide layer thickness can effectively reduce the slurry etching rate. Experimental results show that an excessively thick oxide layer can lead to a weakening or even failure of the tunneling effect, resulting in severe EL defects and seriously affecting the conversion efficiency.

[0106]
[0107] As can be seen from Table 1, Example 2 has the best overall performance.

[0109] according to Figure 3 Minority carrier lifetime (µs) is an important parameter of solar cell performance. The left axis represents the minority carrier lifetime value. Figure 3 The minority carrier lifetime of Example 2 is the highest, around 2500. Since the length of the minority carrier lifetime directly affects the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery, it can be concluded that Example 2 has the best photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0110] Figure 4 The left coordinate represents the open-circuit voltage value, according to Figure 4 As can be seen from the open-circuit voltages in Table 1, Example 2 has the highest open-circuit voltage.
[0111] according to Figure 5 The left-hand axis represents the saturation current density value, and the saturation current density (A / cm²) of Example 2 is shown. 2 The average is the lowest. According to common knowledge, the lower the saturation current density, the lower the recombination rate of the PN junction and the lower the leakage current of the battery in the dark state. This is beneficial to improving the open circuit voltage (Voc) and photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell. This shows that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of Example 2 is the best.
[0112] according to Figure 6 As shown in Table 1, Example 2 has the highest fill factor, which reflects the efficiency with which the battery converts light energy into electrical energy. Therefore, Example 2 has the best photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0113] In summary, this invention, by adding an oxide layer between poly layers, effectively controls the silver paste etching rate while reducing the total thickness of the poly layer. Based on the original thin poly layer, the silver paste etching rate can be better controlled, avoiding damage to the tunneling oxide layer by the silver paste, preserving better passivation performance, reducing the loss of filler factor, and significantly improving conversion efficiency.
