[0064] Figure 1A schematic structural diagram of a solar cell screen 100 in one embodiment of the present application is shown; Figure 2 Shows Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a mesh area of ​​a silk screen 120 of a solar cell screen 100; Figure 3 Shows Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the partial enlarged structure of the first mesh area z1; Figure 4 Shows Figure 2 A partially enlarged structural schematic diagram of the second mesh area z2; for ease of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a solar cell screen 100, comprising a frame 110 and a screen 120. In the embodiment of the present application, the first direction F1 is the length direction of the solar cell screen 100, the second direction F2 is the width direction of the solar cell screen 100, and the third direction F3 is the thickness direction of the solar cell screen 100. The first direction F1, the second direction F2 and the third direction F3 are perpendicular to each other.

[0066] The frame 110 is a component for carrying and fixing the wire mesh 120. The frame 110 is arranged in a frame shape, and each part of the frame 110 encloses and defines a space for installing the wire mesh 120. Figure 1 and Figure 2 For example, the frame 110 may be a rectangular frame.

[0067] The screen 120 is a component of a screen for printing. The screen 120 is made of mesh threads interwoven to form a mesh opening. The screen 120 and the barrier film 130 ( Figure 1 and Figure 2 (not shown) so that part of all the mesh openings can pass through the slurry, and the other part of the mesh openings cannot pass through the slurry. Figure 2 As shown, the screen 120 includes a first screen area z1 and a second screen area z2 surrounding the first screen area z1. That is, the first screen area z1 roughly corresponds to the middle area of ​​the screen 120, and the second screen area z2 roughly corresponds to the edge area of ​​the screen 120. Further, the shape of the first screen area z1 can be rectangular, and the shape of the second screen area z2 can be a rectangular frame. It can be understood that Figure 1 and Figure 2 The relative positions of the first mesh area z1 and the second mesh area z2 are roughly shown. The specific sizes of the first mesh area z1 and the second mesh area z2 can be set according to actual usage requirements and are not specifically limited here.

[0068] Combined with reference Figure 3, the first mesh area z1 is constructed by interweaving a plurality of longitude mesh wires 121 and a plurality of latitude mesh wires 122. The angle α between at least part of the longitude mesh wires 121 of the first mesh area z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude mesh wires 122 satisfies the condition: 80°≤α≤100°. The angle α between all the longitude mesh wires 121 of the first mesh area z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude mesh wires 122 may satisfy the aforementioned condition, or the angle α between part of the longitude mesh wires 121 of the first mesh area z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude mesh wires 122 may satisfy the aforementioned condition. In the embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 As shown, it shows the situation that the angle α between all the longitude meshes 121 of the first mesh area z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude meshes 122 meets the above conditions. Exemplarily, the angle α can be 80°, 85°, 90°, 95° or 100°.

[0069] Continue to refer to Figure 3 , the cross-sectional shape of the mesh opening formed by the interweaving of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 of the first mesh area z1 is a first polygon. That is, the mesh opening of the first mesh area z1 is a first mesh opening, and the cross-sectional shape of the first mesh opening is a first polygon. Figure 4 , the cross-sectional shape of the mesh opening formed by the mesh wires of the second mesh area z2 is a second polygon. That is, the mesh opening of the second mesh area z2 is a second mesh opening w2, and the cross-sectional shape of the second mesh opening w2 is a second polygon. The first polygon is a quadrilateral, and the number of sides of the second polygon is greater than the number of sides of the first polygon. Exemplarily, the number of sides of the second polygon can be five sides, six sides, or seven sides.

[0070] It should be noted that the longitude mesh 121 and latitude mesh 122 mentioned above are relative, and do not limit the positions of the longitude mesh 121 and latitude mesh 122. Interlaced mesh refers to two meshes having an intersection, and does not limit the process of making the screen 120.

[0071] When printing the screen 120, slurry is poured into one end of the screen 120, and a certain pressure is applied to the slurry part of the screen 120 with a scraper, while moving toward the other end of the screen 120. The slurry is squeezed from the mesh opening of the corresponding graphic part to the corresponding substrate by the scraper during movement to form the required grid line pattern. In this process, it is easy to cause the pressure of the scraper acting on the edge area of ​​the screen 120 to be too large, thereby causing the edge area of ​​the screen 120 to break. In the embodiment of the present application, since the second mesh area z2 is the area surrounding the first mesh area z1, the second mesh area z2 is roughly the edge area of ​​the screen 120, and the cross-sectional shape of the mesh opening of the second mesh area z2 is set to be larger than a quadrilateral, the supporting force of the second mesh area z2 is increased, and then when the pressure of the scraper acting on the second mesh area z2 is too large, the situation of the screen 120 breaking can be improved.

[0072] The inventor of the present application has further studied and found that the size of the opening of the first mesh area z1 will directly affect the leakage of the slurry, which is prone to the situation of broken grids and excessive width of the grid lines. Therefore, by setting the angle between at least part of the longitude mesh wires 121 of the first mesh area z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude mesh wires 122 to be greater than or equal to 80° and less than or equal to 100°, and setting the cross-sectional shape of the mesh opening of the first mesh area z1 to a quadrilateral, it can not only facilitate the slurry to fall to improve the situation of broken grids, but also improve the situation of grid line widening by limiting the slurry from falling.

[0073] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the screen 120 is divided into zones and the meshes in different zones are provided with different structures, which not only facilitates the control of the line width of the grid lines, but also improves the situation of broken grids and broken screen 120.

[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the angle α between at least part of the longitude mesh yarns 121 of the first mesh zone z1 and the corresponding intersecting latitude mesh yarns 122 is 90°.

[0075] In this way, when the angle α is 90°, it is more conducive to improving the gate line width and the gate break.

[0076] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the second polygon is configured as a hexagon. Exemplarily, the second polygon is configured as a regular hexagon.

[0077] In this way, by constructing the second polygon as a hexagon, the mesh openings in the second mesh area z2 are roughly arranged in a honeycomb shape, which is beneficial to improving the supporting force of the second mesh area z2.

[0078] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The first polygon is a square. This is not only beneficial to improving the width of the gate line and the gate break, but also beneficial to processing and manufacturing.

[0079] Figure 5 shows Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a side cross-sectional structure of a solar cell screen 100; Figure 6 5 shows a schematic structural diagram of the barrier film 130 of the solar cell screen 100; Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the local structure of the barrier film 130 and the first mesh area z1 in an embodiment of the present application is shown; for ease of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to FIG. 5, the solar cell screen 100 also includes a barrier film 130 covered on one side of the screen 120. One side of the screen 120 is a side of the screen 120 along the third direction F3. The barrier film 130 can be made of one of a photosensitive emulsion, a PI film (Polyimide Film) or a hollow metal sheet. In the embodiment of the present application, the barrier film 130 is a PI film. As mentioned above, the barrier film 130 is a component used in conjunction with the screen 120. Specifically, the barrier film 130 is provided with a plurality of first grid line pattern openings k that allow the slurry to pass through and are arranged at intervals along the first direction F1, and each first grid line pattern opening k extends along the second direction F2 intersecting the first direction F1. In the embodiment of the present application, the situation where the first direction F1 and the second direction F2 are perpendicular to each other is illustrated. That is, the extension direction of the grid line formed by the first grid line pattern opening k is the second direction F2. The first grid line pattern can be a main grid line or a secondary grid line. Correspondingly, the first gate line pattern opening k can be used to form a main gate line, and can also be used to form a secondary gate line. Figure 6 , which schematically illustrates a situation in which a first gate line pattern opening k for forming a main gate line is provided on the blocking film 130 .

[0081] In the area of ​​the screen 120 corresponding to the first grid line pattern opening k, the line connecting the multiple mesh nodes formed by the intersection of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 of the first mesh area z1 is parallel to the second direction F2. The line connecting the multiple mesh nodes formed by the intersection of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 is defined as the first line L1. That is, the first line L1 and the second direction F2 are parallel to each other. Exemplarily, the first line L1 can correspond to the middle position in the width direction of the first grid line pattern opening k.

[0082] Such a design, relative to the situation where there is no mesh knot in the area corresponding to the first grid line pattern opening k, by locating some mesh knot points in the first mesh area z1 in the area corresponding to the first grid line pattern opening k, allows the slurry to fall from the first grid line pattern opening k through the mesh knot points, thereby blocking the slurry and being more conducive to suppressing the widening of the grid line width.

[0083] Figure 8 Shows Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the local enlarged structure at point A in the figure; for ease of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0084] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , and combined with reference Figure 8 The angle between the first connecting line L1 and the longitude mesh 121 constituting the plurality of mesh nodes is β, and the angle between the first connecting line L1 and the latitude mesh 122 constituting the plurality of mesh nodes is γ. β=γ.

[0085] In this way, the distribution of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 corresponding to the first grid line pattern opening k is more uniform, which is more conducive to improving the uniformity of the slurry falling from the first grid line pattern opening k, further controlling the line width of the grid line and improving the broken grid, thereby improving the printing quality.

[0086] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 The sidewall of the first gate line pattern opening k is covered with a functional film layer x. The surface energy of the functional film layer x is smaller than the surface energy of the sidewall of the first gate line pattern opening k.

[0087] It can be understood that since the functional film layer x is a solid, the surface energy of the functional film layer x can be understood with reference to the definition of solid surface energy. The surface tension of the liquid that is added to the solid surface does not become a droplet but is in a state of wetting the solid surface (the contact angle with the solid surface is 0°) is called the solid surface energy of the solid. The surface energy of a liquid refers to the energy state of the surface layer of liquid molecules. When the surface energy of a liquid is greater than the surface energy of a solid, it is difficult for the liquid to wet the surface of the solid, that is, it is difficult for the liquid to adsorb on the surface of the solid, and the liquid is in a state of easy flow on the surface of the solid.

[0088] In this way, when the slurry falls from the first grid line pattern opening k, it will contact the functional film layer x. Since the surface energy of the functional film layer x is smaller, it is difficult for the slurry to wet the functional film layer x, and it is difficult for the slurry to stay in the first grid line pattern opening k, which helps to improve the situation where the slurry remains in the first grid line pattern opening k, and facilitates the slurry to fall from the first grid line pattern opening k. On this basis, it is also beneficial to improve the printing quality of the grid line.

[0089] It should be noted that the material of the functional film layer x can be selected according to the slurry used. In other words, the material that can meet the use requirements can be selected from the existing materials according to the required surface energy of the functional film layer x, as long as it can meet the use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application does not impose specific restrictions on this. For example, the functional film layer x can be formed by a primary coating process or a secondary coating process, and the functional film layer x can be an alloy film.

[0090] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 , the width H of the first gate line pattern opening k along the first direction F1 satisfies the condition: 12 μm≤H≤14 μm. Exemplarily, H may be 12 μm, 12.5 μm, 13 μm, 13.5 μm or 14 μm. For example, H may be 13.8 μm.

[0091] Thus, by controlling the width of the first gate line pattern opening k, it is advantageous to control the width of the gate line to be 25 μm to 30 μm. Of course, according to the required width of the gate line, the width of the first gate line pattern opening k along the first direction F1 can also be other values, which are not specifically limited here.

[0093] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 , and combined with reference Fig. 9 The first gate line pattern opening k includes a sub-gate line pattern opening k1 extending along the second direction F2, and a first pad pattern opening k2 located at both ends of the sub-gate line pattern opening k1 along the second direction F2. The first pad pattern opening k2 is used to form pads located at both ends of the gate line. The first pad pattern opening k2 has a plurality of contour edges b connected end to end in sequence. Any contour edge b is constructed as a non-straight line and has a plurality of peaks b1 and a plurality of valleys b2 arranged alternately.

[0094] Combined with reference Fig. 9 Taking the first pad pattern opening k2 as an example, which is substantially rectangular, the first pad pattern opening k2 has four contour edges b. Each contour edge b is configured as a non-linear line and has a plurality of peaks b1 and a plurality of valleys b2 arranged alternately. The peaks b1 and the valleys b2 are relative. The peaks b1 are the portions of the contour edge b that protrude toward the inside of the first pad pattern opening k2, and the valleys b2 are the portions of the contour edge b that are recessed away from the inside of the first pad pattern opening k2.

[0095] A pad with a larger area is usually provided at both ends of the longitudinal direction of the gate line to facilitate the connection between the gate line and the solder strip. However, when printing a pad with a larger area, the corresponding pad graphic opening also needs to be set larger, which causes the slurry to become larger after falling through the pad graphic opening, making it difficult to shape the slurry. For example, a hollow part or an unshaped outer contour appears in the slurry at the pad position. In an embodiment of the present application, by constructing the contour edge b into a structure of multiple peaks b1 and multiple valleys b2 arranged alternately, the expansion of the falling slurry can be improved, which is beneficial to the slurry molding and improves the printing quality.

[0096] Fig.10 Shows Figure 6 The second schematic diagram of the local enlarged structure at B in the figure; for the convenience of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0097] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig. 9, the contour edge b is configured to extend in a broken line shape, and the contour edge b includes a plurality of sequentially connected sub-straight edges, and the adjacent sub-straight edges form a peak b1 or a valley b2. In other embodiments, please refer to Fig.10 The contour edge b is constructed to extend in a wave shape, and the contour edge b includes a plurality of sub-curve edges connected in sequence, and the adjacent sub-curve edges constitute a peak portion b1 or a valley portion b2.

[0098] In this way, the structure of the contour edge b can be flexibly set according to the use requirements, as long as it can improve the situation of slurry expansion, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0099] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The sub-grid pattern opening k1 includes a first segment opening k11 and a second segment opening k12 connecting the first segment opening k11 and the first pad pattern opening k2. The width of the second segment opening k12 increases from one end connected to the first segment opening k11 to the other end connected to the first pad pattern opening k2.

[0100] It should be noted that the "increasing trend" may include a staged increase, such as increasing first, then remaining unchanged, and then increasing, etc.; it may also include a continuous increase, such as a consistent increase speed or a fast increase first and then a slow increase, etc. Taking the increasing trend as increasing first, then remaining unchanged, and then increasing as an example, the increasing trend is divided into three stages: the "first increase" stage, the "no change" stage, and the "later increase" stage. That is, on the whole, the width of the second segment opening k12 is generally increased. Exemplarily, the width of the second segment opening k12 gradually increases from one end connected to the first segment opening k11 to the other end connected to the first pad pattern opening k2.

[0101] In this way, since the size of the first pad pattern opening k2 is larger than the size of the second segment opening k12, the gate breaking problem can be improved by configuring the width of the second segment opening to increase.

[0102] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10, the first gate line graphic opening k also includes a harpoon graphic opening k3. The harpoon graphic opening k3 is an opening for forming a harpoon connecting line. The harpoon graphic opening k3 is connected to the side of the first pad graphic opening k2 that deviates from the second segment opening k12. The width of the harpoon graphic opening k3 shows an increasing trend from one end connected to the first pad graphic opening k2 to the other end that deviates from the first pad graphic opening k2. The relevant understanding and relevant implementation methods of the increasing trend can be referred to the contents illustrated in some of the aforementioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here. Exemplarily, the width of the harpoon graphic opening k3 gradually increases from one end connected to the first pad graphic opening k2 to the other end that deviates from the first pad graphic opening k2.

[0103] Since the tension of the mesh wire is greater as it is closer to the edge, it is easy to hinder the slurry from falling. By controlling the width of the harpoon connecting line, it is easier to make and shape the harpoon connecting line.

[0104] Fig.11 Shows Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the local enlarged structure at point C in the middle; for ease of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0105] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to 6 and combine with reference to Fig.11 , the first gate line pattern opening k also includes a plurality of second pad pattern openings k4. The plurality of second pad pattern openings k4 are sequentially spaced along the second direction F2. The first segmented opening k11 includes a plurality of sub-segmented openings k111 extending along the second direction F2, and the plurality of sub-segmented openings k111 are sequentially spaced along the second direction F2. Along the second direction F2, a second pad pattern opening k4 is connected between two adjacent sub-segmented openings k111. The second pad pattern opening k4 is used to form a pad disposed on the main gate line, and the pad intersects or does not intersect with the secondary gate line.

[0106] Thus, by correspondingly setting the second pad pattern opening k4, the connection between the main grid line and the soldering strip can be realized. The pad formed by the second pad pattern opening k4 can be set smaller, which can reduce the light shielding area of ​​the pad.

[0107] Fig.12 A schematic diagram of the structure of the barrier film 130 cooperating with each mesh area in one embodiment of the present application is shown; Fig.13 One of the partial enlarged structural schematic diagrams of the screen 120 in one embodiment of the present application is shown; Fig.14 Shows Fig.13 The schematic diagram of the partial structure of each mesh area of ​​the screen 120 and the barrier film 130 is shown; for the convenience of explanation, only the content related to the embodiment of the present application is shown. Fig.12 In the figure, only the approximate location of the mesh area is shown. Fig.14Only the approximate position of the mesh area and the structure of the third mesh area z3 are shown.

[0108] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 12 to Figure 14 , the screen 120 also includes a third mesh area z3 independent of the first mesh area z1 and the second mesh area z2. The third mesh area z3 is adjacent to the frame 110 and corresponds to the first segmented opening k11, and the third mesh area z3 is constructed to be at least partially surrounded by the first mesh area z1. That is, at least part of the boundary of the third mesh area z3 is adjacent to the first mesh area z1. Among them, the longitude mesh wires 121 and the latitude mesh wires 122 of the third mesh area z3 are interwoven to form a plurality of mesh openings arranged along the second direction F2. The mesh opening of the third mesh area z3 is the third mesh opening w3. That is, all the third mesh openings w3 are arranged along the second direction F2. Specifically, the third mesh opening w3 can be arranged in a rectangular shape.

[0109] It can be understood that since the tension of the mesh closer to the edge is greater, it is easy to hinder the pulp from falling. By setting the third mesh area z3, it can be beneficial for the pulp to fall, thereby improving the situation of broken mesh.

[0110] It should be noted that the position of the third mesh area z3 can be determined by the position of the first mesh area z1. The first pad graphic opening k2 can correspond to the first mesh area z1 or the second mesh area z2. When the first pad graphic opening k2 corresponds to the first mesh area z1, the third mesh area z3 can be constructed to be completely surrounded by the first mesh area z1. When the second pad graphic corresponds to the second mesh area z2, the third mesh area z3 can be constructed to be partially surrounded by the first mesh area z1. Figures 13 to 16 For example, Fig.15 FIG. 2 shows a second partial enlarged structural diagram of the screen 120 in an embodiment of the present application. Fig.16 Shows Fig.15 The schematic diagram of the partial structure of each mesh area of ​​the screen 120 and the barrier film 130 is shown, showing that a part of the third mesh area z3 is surrounded by the first mesh area z1, and the other part is surrounded by the second mesh area z2. In the case where the first pad pattern opening k2 corresponds to the first mesh area z1 or the second mesh area z2, the boundary line of the first mesh area z1 can be set as close to the first pad pattern opening k2 as possible. It can be flexibly set according to the usage, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0111] Fig.17 A schematic structural diagram of the coordination of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 of the first mesh zone z1 in an embodiment of the present application is shown; for ease of explanation, only the contents related to the embodiment of the present application are shown.

[0112] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , and combined with reference Fig.17 The width d1 of the longitude mesh 121 satisfies the condition: 8 μm ≤ d1 ≤ 9 μm; and / or the width d2 of the latitude mesh 122 satisfies the condition: 8 μm ≤ d2 ≤ 9 μm. Exemplarily, d1 may be 8 μm, 8.2 μm, 8.5 μm, 8.8 μm or 9 μm, and d2 may be 8 μm, 8.2 μm, 8.5 μm, 8.8 μm or 9 μm.

[0113] In this way, by controlling the width of the longitude mesh 121 and the width of the latitude mesh 122 , it is advantageous to print grid lines of a desired width.

[0114] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , and combined with reference Fig.17 , the width d1 of the longitude mesh 121 and the width d2 of the latitude mesh 122 satisfy the condition: 0.9≤d1 / d2≤1.1; and / or, the mesh number S of the mesh formed by the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 of the first mesh area z1 satisfies the condition: 420≤S≤490. Exemplarily, d1 / d2 may be 0.9, 0.95, 0.99, 1, 1.05 or 1.1, and S may be 420, 430, 440, 450, 470, 480 or 490. For example, S may be 430.

[0115] In this way, by controlling the ratio of the width of the longitude mesh 121 to the width of the latitude mesh 122, as well as the mesh size of the mesh formed by the interweaving of the longitude mesh 121 and the latitude mesh 122 in the first mesh area z1, it is beneficial to balance the size of the opening, thereby improving the molding performance of the slurry while having a certain amount of slurry leakage.

[0116] In some embodiments, the mesh of the screen 120 may be made of nickel alloy, which has advantages such as excellent elongation, compressive strength, surface finish, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and low price, which is beneficial to not only improving printing quality but also reducing costs.
