Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical vapor deposition, in particular to chemical vapor deposition equipment for preparing HJT battery thin films. Background Art

[0002] HJT cells, also called HIT cells, commonly known as heterojunction cells, are third-generation cells. Their full name is crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cells. They are silicon solar cells that use a HIT structure. This technology deposits amorphous silicon thin films on crystalline silicon. It combines the core competitiveness of crystalline silicon cells and thin-film cells, can improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency, and is one of the hot trends in high-conversion-efficiency silicon-based solar cells.

[0003] HJT battery thin film is prepared using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) equipment. Chemical vapor deposition is a process in which a gas mixture containing the atoms or molecules required for the thin film is injected into a reaction chamber, and a reaction occurs in the reaction chamber. The atoms or molecules are deposited on the surface of crystalline silicon and aggregated to form a thin film.

[0004] In the chemical vapor deposition equipment of the prior art, since the exhaust holes are opened on both sides of the support seat, the gas flow rate and pressure distribution of the reaction gas on the surface of the support seat are uneven, which in turn affects the uniform deposition of thin films on crystalline silicon. At the same time, after a period of use, certain impurity particles will be deposited on the surface of the support seat. Such impurity particles are often not evenly distributed on the entire surface of the support seat, which causes the surface of the support seat to be uneven. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the distance from the crystalline silicon to the nozzle so that the distance from each point on the surface of the crystalline silicon to the nozzle is equal. The existing chemical vapor deposition equipment needs to open the reaction chamber and clean the surface of the support seat to make the surface of the support seat flat; or adjust the nozzle so that the nozzle and the crystalline silicon have the same inclination angle. Regardless of which method is used, the reaction chamber needs to be opened first, which is very difficult to adjust. For this reason, we provide a chemical vapor deposition equipment for the preparation of HJT battery thin films. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 5The utility model provides a technical solution: a chemical vapor deposition device for preparing HJT battery thin film, comprising a reaction chamber 1, a nozzle 2 installed on the top of the reaction chamber 1, and a support seat 3 installed at the bottom of the reaction chamber 1. A height adjustment mechanism 4 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the reaction chamber 1. The height adjustment mechanism 4 is used to support and raise the height of the corresponding part of the support seat 3. The height adjustment mechanism 4 includes a lower slide frame 401 fixedly installed at the bottom of the reaction chamber 1. The inner part of the lower slide frame 401 is movably sleeved with a first support rod 402. By adjusting the first support rod The angle between the rod 402 and the second support rod 408 can adjust the height between the lower slide 401 and the upper slide 404, adjust the height of the corresponding position of the support seat 3, and finally adjust the height of the crystalline silicon so that the distance from the surface of the crystalline silicon to the nozzle is equal. The top of the first support rod 402 is movably sleeved with a first slider 403, and the bottom of the support seat 3 is fixedly installed with an upper slide 404. The interior of the upper slide 404 is provided with a first slide groove 405. By setting the first slide groove 405, the first slider 403 is in the first slide groove 405. The first slide groove 405 has a limiting effect on the first slider 403, so that the first slider 403 moves more stably. The first slider 403 is clamped in the first slide groove 405. The lower slide frame 401 is provided with a second slide groove 406 inside. The second slide groove 406 is clamped with a second slider 407 inside. By providing the second slider 407, the second slide groove 406 slides horizontally inside the second slider 407, which can improve the stability of the movement of the second slider 407. The second slider 407 is movably sleeved with a second support outside. Rod 408, the top of the second support rod 408 is movably connected with the first slider 403, and a driving motor 5 is fixedly installed on one end of the lower slide frame 401 close to the second slide groove 406, and a screw 501 is connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 5. The screw 501 is movably connected to the inside of the lower slide frame 401, and the second slider 407 is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw 501. The screw 501 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 5, so that the second slider 407 can move along the screw 501, thereby adjusting the inclination angle of the second support rod 408.

[0024] See also Figures 2 to 3 A lower uniform air cavity 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the reaction chamber 1, and an upper uniform air cavity 7 is movably sleeved on the top of the lower uniform air cavity 6. An exhaust hole 8 is opened on the top of the upper uniform air cavity 7. The upper uniform air cavity 7 is annular in structure. The upper uniform air cavity 7 surrounds the outside of the support seat 3, and the exhaust holes 8 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the support seat 3. By setting the exhaust holes 8, the exhaust holes 8 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the support seat 3, and air can be exhausted from all around the support seat 3, so that the gas flow rate and pressure distribution inside the reaction chamber 1 are more uniform.

[0025] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2The bottom of the upper evenly distributed air cavity 7 is connected to an exhaust structure, which includes an exhaust pipe 9 connected to the bottom of the upper evenly distributed air cavity 7. There are two exhaust pipes 9 and they are symmetrically distributed about the support seat 3. The bottom of the exhaust pipe 9 is connected to the pump body 10 through a three-way pipe. The gas inside the reaction chamber 1 is extracted outward through the pump body 10, so that the gas inside the reaction chamber 1 can flow downward continuously. A driving mechanism for driving the upper evenly distributed air cavity 7 to rotate is installed inside the reaction chamber 1.

[0026] See also Figures 2 to 3 The driving mechanism includes a driving motor 11 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the reaction chamber 1, the top of the output shaft of the driving motor 11 extends to the inside of the reaction chamber 1, and a driving wheel 12 is fixedly mounted on the top of the output shaft of the driving motor 11. The driving wheel 12 is connected to the inner side of the upper evenly distributed air cavity 7 by transmission. The driving motor 11 drives the driving wheel 12 to rotate, and then the driving wheel 12 drives the upper evenly distributed air cavity 7 to rotate, so that the position of the air extraction hole 8 can be continuously adjusted, so that the gas flow rate and pressure distribution inside the reaction chamber 1 can be made more uniform. A sealing member 13 is mounted on the output shaft of the driving motor 11, and the sealing member 13 is fixedly mounted inside the reaction chamber 1. The sealing member 13 is a 109 type mechanical seal. By setting the sealing member 13, the sealing member 13 can seal the output shaft of the driving motor 11 to prevent the inside and outside of the reaction chamber 1 from being connected.

[0027] In summary, when the chemical vapor deposition equipment for preparing HJT battery thin film is used, the lead screw 501 is driven to rotate by driving motor 1 5, so that the second slider 407 can move along the lead screw 501, and the second slider 407 is used to push the second support rod 408 to rise and fall, so that the height adjustment mechanism 4 supports and adjusts the height of the corresponding position of the support seat 3, and finally adjusts the height of the crystalline silicon so that the distance from each part of the crystalline silicon surface to the nozzle is equal. When the pump body 10 is evacuating air, the driving motor 2 11 drives the driving wheel 12 to rotate, so that the upper uniform air cavity 7 can rotate slowly, and the position of the exhaust hole 8 can be continuously adjusted. The exhaust holes 8 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the support seat 3, so that the gas flow rate and pressure distribution inside the reaction chamber 1 can be more uniform, thereby improving the uniformity of crystalline silicon thin film deposition.
