[0036] The above substrate 1 is the main structure of the solar cell, and this substrate 1 is usually a doped silicon substrate 1. Of course, in this embodiment, the specific material and doping type of this substrate 1 are not specifically limited and depend on specific circumstances. In this embodiment, an n-type silicon substrate 1 is usually selected as the substrate 1 used in this embodiment.

[0037] The above passivation layer is located on the back surface of the substrate 1, and the doped layer is located on the surface of the passivation layer facing away from the substrate 1. In this embodiment, a first electrode region and a second electrode region are defined on one side of the back surface of the substrate 1, and different electrode structures with opposite conductivity types will be specifically formed in the two electrode regions. In this embodiment, the first doped layer 31 is located on the surface of the passivation layer in the first electrode region facing away from the substrate 1, and the second doped layer 32 needs to be located on the surface of the passivation layer in the second electrode region facing away from the substrate 1. The first doped layer 31 and the second doped layer 32 need to have opposite conductivity types to form a back-contact solar cell. In this embodiment, the adjacent first doped layer 31 and second doped layer 32 need to be distributed in an interdigitated manner to ensure that the current generated in the solar cell can be collected as efficiently as possible. In this embodiment, the above first doped layer 31 and second doped layer 32 are structures in different regions of the same layer.

[0038] In this embodiment, the first doping layer 31 is one of a doped polysilicon layer and a doped amorphous silicon layer, and the second doping layer 32 is the other of the doped polysilicon layer and the doped amorphous silicon layer. And in this embodiment, the doped amorphous silicon layer and the doped polysilicon layer are mixed and matched to achieve the purpose of combined passivation and reduce the damage to amorphous silicon caused by heating during laser patterning.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the passivation layer includes a first passivation layer 21 and a second passivation layer 22. The first passivation layer 21 is located in the first electrode region, and the second passivation layer 22 is located in the second electrode region. The first passivation layer 21 is one of a tunneling passivation layer and an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, and the second passivation layer 22 is the other of the tunneling passivation layer and the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer; the first doping layer 31 is located on the surface of the first passivation layer 21 facing away from the substrate 1, and the second doping layer 32 is located on the surface of the second passivation layer 22 facing away from the substrate 1.

[0040] In this embodiment, passivation layers of different materials can also be mixed and matched. Specifically, in this embodiment, the passivation layer specifically includes a first passivation layer 21 and a second passivation layer 22. The passivation layer located in the first electrode region is the first passivation layer 21, and the passivation layer located in the second electrode region is the second passivation layer 22. Correspondingly, the above-mentioned first doping layer 31 will be located on the surface of the first passivation layer 21 facing away from the substrate 1, and the second doping layer 32 will be located on the surface of the second passivation layer 22 facing away from the substrate 1.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first passivation layer 21 is one of a tunneling passivation layer and an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, and the second passivation layer 22 is the other of the tunneling passivation layer and the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer. That is, in this embodiment, the tunneling passivation layer and the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer need to be mixed and matched to improve the passivation effect.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first passivation layer 21 is a tunneling passivation layer, and the first doping layer 31 is a doped polysilicon layer; the second passivation layer 22 is an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, and the second doping layer 32 is a doped amorphous silicon layer. That is, in the first electrode region of this embodiment, the tunneling passivation layer serving as the passivation layer is in contact with the doped polysilicon layer serving as the doping layer; while in the second electrode region of this embodiment, the intrinsic amorphous silicon layer serving as the passivation layer is in contact with the doped amorphous silicon layer serving as the doping layer. The above structure can ensure good adaptability between the passivation layer and the doping layer and reduce the defects therebetween. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the doping types of the first doping layer 31 and the second doping layer 32 are not specifically limited. Therefore, in this embodiment, the doping layer using doped polysilicon can be defined as the first doping layer 31, and the doping layer using doped amorphous silicon can be defined as the second doping layer 32, and the above electrode regions, passivation layers, and subsequent current transport layers can be defined correspondingly. In this embodiment, the first doping layer 31 can be an n-type doped polysilicon layer (n-poly layer), and the second doping layer 32 can be a p-type doped amorphous silicon layer (P-type a-si).

[0043] In this embodiment, the electrode located in the first electrode region and electrically connected to the first doping layer 31 is defined as the first electrode 51, and the electrode located in the second electrode region and electrically connected to the second doping layer 32 is defined as the second electrode 52. Both the first electrode 51 and the second electrode 52 can include at least one main grid line and multiple sub-grid lines 6 to collect the current generated by the solar cell. In this embodiment, the first electrode 51 is located on the side of the first doping layer 31 facing away from the substrate 1 and is electrically connected to the first doping layer 31, and the second electrode 52 is located on the side of the second doping layer 32 facing away from the substrate 1 and is electrically connected to the second doping layer 32.

[0044] In this embodiment, the jointly passivated back contact solar cell may further include a current transport layer. The current transport layer is located on the surface of the first doping layer 31 and the second doping layer 32 facing away from the substrate 1. The first electrode 51 is electrically connected to the first doping layer 31 through the current transport layer, and the second electrode 52 is electrically connected to the second doping layer 32 through the current transport layer. The above current transport layer is used to collect the current generated in the solar cell, enabling the electrodes to collect the current generated by the solar cell more fully.

[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the current transport layer includes a first current transport layer 41 and a second current transport layer 42. The first current transport layer 41 is located in the first electrode region, specifically on the surface of the first doping layer 31 facing away from the substrate 1. The second current transport layer 42 is located in the second electrode region, specifically on the surface of the second doping layer 32 facing away from the substrate 1. The first current transport layer 41 is one of a silicon nitride layer and a TCO (Transparent Conductive Oxide) layer, and the second current transport layer 42 is the other of the silicon nitride layer and the TCO layer.

[0046] In this embodiment, current transport layers of different materials can also be mixed and matched. Specifically, the current transport layer in the first electrode region is the first current transport layer 41, and the current transport layer in the second electrode region is the second current transport layer 42. Correspondingly, the above-mentioned first current transport layer 41 will be located on the surface of the first doping layer 31 facing away from the substrate 1, and the second current transport layer 42 will be located on the surface of the second doping layer 32 facing away from the substrate 1. In this embodiment, the silicon nitride layer and the TCO layer need to be mixed and matched.

[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first doping layer 31 is a doped polysilicon layer, and the first current transport layer 41 is a silicon nitride layer; the second doping layer 32 is a doped amorphous silicon layer, and the second current transport layer 42 is a TCO layer. That is, in the first electrode region of this embodiment, the silicon nitride layer serving as the current transport layer is in contact with the doped polysilicon layer serving as the doping layer; and in the second electrode region of this embodiment, the TCO layer serving as the current transport layer is in contact with the doped amorphous silicon layer serving as the doping layer. The above structure can ensure good compatibility between the current transport layer and the doping layer, and reduce the defects between the two.

[0048] A passivation layer can be provided on the front surface of the substrate 1 in this embodiment to passivate the front surface of the substrate 1. The specific structure of the passivation layer located on the front surface can be set according to the actual situation. It can specifically be a stacked structure of an alumina layer and a silicon nitride layer, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0049] A jointly passivated back-contact solar cell provided in this embodiment can effectively reduce the shielding of the front of the cell by grid lines, solder tapes, etc. by arranging doped layers in a finger-like distribution and setting doped layers with opposite conductivity types on the back of the cell. Since the passivation effect of the doped amorphous silicon layer is better than that of the doped polycrystalline silicon layer, but heating during the laser patterning process is likely to cause damage to the amorphous silicon. By arranging doped layers of two different materials, namely the doped polycrystalline silicon layer and the doped amorphous silicon layer, it is possible to reduce the damage to the amorphous silicon caused by heating during laser patterning while ensuring excellent passivation effects, so as to comprehensively optimize and reduce the loss of the conversion efficiency of the solar cell, making the solar cell have a high conversion efficiency.

[0050] Specific details about a jointly passivated back-contact solar cell provided by the present utility model will be introduced in detail in the following embodiments of the utility model.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 which is a bottom view of a jointly passivated back-contact solar cell provided by an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0053] Different from the above embodiments of the utility model, the embodiments of the present utility model further define the structure of the jointly passivated back-contact solar cell on the basis of the above embodiments of the utility model. The rest of the content has been introduced in detail in the above embodiments of the utility model and will not be elaborated here.

[0054] See Figure 2 , in this embodiment, an isolation region 7 is provided between the first doped layer 31 and the second doped layer 32. The above first doped layer 31 and second doped layer 32 are isolated by arranging the isolation region 7, that is, the GAP region. The isolation region 7 is usually filled with an insulating material to isolate the first doped layer 31 and the second doped layer 32. The specific material of the isolation region 7 can be set according to the actual situation as long as it can achieve the above effects, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0055] In order to isolate the back structure of the solar cell from its front structure, the above isolation region 7 can extend to the edge of the substrate 1 to achieve edge isolation of the front and back of the solar cell through this isolation structure. Further, in this embodiment, the isolation region 7 can be arranged around the substrate 1 along the edge of the substrate 1 for one week, that is, the isolation region 7 will be arranged on the entire edge of the back of the solar cell to form a ring-shaped isolation region 7 to achieve edge isolation of the front and back of the solar cell.

[0056] In this embodiment, the first electrode region and the second electrode region are arranged in an interdigitated pattern. The first electrode region includes a first main chain region 81 and a first branched chain region 82, and the second electrode region includes a second main chain region 91 and a second branched chain region 92. The first branched chain region 82 and the second branched chain region 92 are alternately distributed along a first direction. The first electrode 51 includes a first sub-grid line, and the second electrode 52 includes a second sub-grid line. Each first branched chain region 82 is provided with a plurality of first sub-grid lines, and the axis of each first sub-grid line is parallel to the long side direction of the first branched chain region 82. Each second branched chain region 92 is provided with a plurality of second sub-grid lines, and the axis of each second sub-grid line is parallel to the long side direction of the second branched chain region 92.

[0057] Since the first electrode region and the second electrode region are arranged in an interdigitated pattern, and the interdigitated pattern is usually formed by a main chain region and multiple branched chain regions, and usually the multiple branched chain regions are arranged in parallel, and the main chain region is used to connect the multiple branched chain regions. In this embodiment, the first electrode region includes a first main chain region 81 and multiple first branched chain regions 82, and the second electrode region includes a second main chain region 91 and a second branched chain region 92. For a set of the first electrode region and the second electrode region arranged in an interdigitated pattern, its first branched chain region 82 and the second branched chain region 92 will be alternately distributed along a first direction, and correspondingly, on the entire back surface of the solar cell, the first main chain region 81 and the second main chain region 91 will be alternately arranged along a second direction, and the above-mentioned first direction and the second direction are perpendicular.

[0058] In this embodiment, the first electrode 51 usually includes a first main grid line and multiple first sub-grid lines, and the second electrode 52 usually includes a second main grid line and multiple second sub-grid lines. The above-mentioned first main grid line is usually arranged in the first main chain region 81, the first sub-grid line is usually arranged in the first branched chain region 82, the second main grid line is usually arranged in the second main chain region 91, and the second sub-grid line is usually arranged in the second branched chain region 92. Specifically, in this embodiment, a first branched chain region 82 is provided with a plurality of first sub-grid lines. Usually, the first sub-grid lines are parallel to each other and their axes are along the long side direction of the first branched chain region 82, that is, the second direction. And a second branched chain region 92 is provided with a plurality of second sub-grid lines. Usually, the second sub-grid lines are parallel to each other and their axes are along the long side direction of the second branched chain region 92, that is, the second direction. By providing a plurality of sub-grid lines 6 in each branched chain region, the density of the sub-grid lines 6 can be increased without changing the structures such as the passivation layer and the doping layer, thereby reducing the carrier collection path and reducing recombination.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first electrode 51 is located on the first doping layer 31. In the first branch region 82, the number of sub-grid lines 6 of the first electrode 51 is generally between 2 and 10, distributed on the first doping layer 31 along the first direction and arranged at intervals along the second direction. Similarly, the second electrode 52 is located on the second doping layer 32. In the second branch region 92, the number of sub-grid lines 6 of the second electrode 52 is also generally between 2 and 10, distributed on the second doping layer 32 along the first direction and arranged at intervals along the second direction. The multi-sub-grid design of this embodiment can reduce the carrier collection path and reduce recombination.

[0060] A combined passivated back-contact solar cell provided in this embodiment realizes edge isolation between the front and back sides of the solar cell by setting the isolation region 7; the multi-sub-grid design can reduce the carrier collection path and reduce recombination.

[0063] The above-mentioned first doping layer 31 has a width of 0.3 mm - 2 mm in the first direction and a width of 5 mm - 30 mm in the second direction. The number of sub-grid lines 6 of the first electrode 51 is 1 - 10, and the width of each sub-grid line 6 is 5 μm - 50 μm, distributed on the first doping layer 31.
