[0026] The first surface is divided into a first portion facing the doped conductive layer and a second portion not facing the doped conductive layer, and the first portion has a first surface structure including a plurality of first pyramid structures, and the second portion has a second surface structure including a plurality of platform structures. On the one hand, the first portion having the plurality of first pyramid structures has a larger surface area than the second portion, and an electrode region in the first portion is in electrical contact with the electrode, thereby increasing the contact area between the electrode region and the electrode and thereby advantageously reducing the contact resistance between the electrode region and the electrode and thereby improving the collection efficiency of photogenerated carriers on the first surface by the electrode. On the other hand, the first portion having the plurality of first pyramid structures has a more irregular surface morphology than the second portion, in other words, a higher surface roughness, which is advantageously advantageously increasing the probability that light rays incident on the first portion at different angles will be absorbed by the first portion through the first pyramid structures, and further advantageously improving the light absorption rate of the first portion, both of which are advantageously combined to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the first surface.

[0030] As can be seen from the background art, it is necessary to improve the light absorption rate of solar cells, and it is also necessary to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the front or back surface of the solar cell.

[0031] The analysis shows that the backside of most TOPCon cells has a fully polished structure, and the silicon oxide layer on the backside of the cell substrate is 1-2 nm thick. The main function of the silicon oxide layer is to act as a tunneling layer for the majority of carriers, chemically passivate the backside of the substrate, and reduce interface state defects on the backside of the substrate. The main function of the doped polysilicon layer on the backside of the cell substrate is to act as a field passivation layer, bending the energy band on the backside of the substrate, realizing selective carrier transport on the backside of the substrate and reducing carrier recombination losses.

[0032] Generally, covering the back surface of the entire cell with a doped polysilicon layer with uniform material properties provides good passivation for the back surface of the cell and good carrier transport and collection capabilities. However, the doped polysilicon layer has a relatively strong absorption rate for light in the 300 nm to 1200 nm wavelength range, and tends to absorb most of the incident light. This significantly reduces the light incident on the back surface of the cell that is shielded by the doped polysilicon layer, thereby reducing the absorption rate of the incident light on the back surface of the cell, and significantly adversely affecting both the photovoltaic current and the bifacial efficiency of the cell.

[0033] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a solar cell and a manufacturing method thereof, a stacked battery, and a solar cell module, in which the solar cell has a first surface divided into a first portion facing a doped conductive layer and a second portion not facing the doped conductive layer, and the first portion has a first surface structure including a plurality of first pyramid structures, and the second portion has a second surface structure including a plurality of platform structures. On the one hand, compared with the second part, the first part having a plurality of first pyramidal structures has a larger surface area, and since the electrode region in the first part is in electrical contact with the electrode, increasing the contact area between the electrode region and the electrode is advantageous for reducing the contact resistance between the electrode region and the electrode, thereby improving the collection efficiency of photogenerated carriers at the first surface by the electrode; on the other hand, compared with the second part, the first part having a plurality of first pyramidal structures has a more irregular surface morphology, in other words, a higher surface roughness, which is advantageous for increasing the probability that light rays incident on the first part at different angles will be absorbed by the first part through the first pyramidal structures, and is advantageous for further improving the absorption rate of light rays in the first part; both of these cooperate to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the first surface. Furthermore, because the electrode region and some of the non-electrode regions are both provided with a dielectric layer and a doped conductive layer, the dielectric layer and the doped conductive layer have a passivation effect on both the electrode region and the non-electrode region, thereby further reducing carrier loss across the entire first surface, and the non-electrode region transports and collects carriers from the non-electrode region via the dielectric layer and the doped conductive layer and provides them to the electrode region, thereby further improving the carrier collection efficiency across the entire first surface. Furthermore, because some areas of at least one non-electrode region are not shielded by the dielectric layer and the doped conductive layer, some light can be irradiated onto some of the non-electrode regions without passing through the dielectric layer and the doped conductive layer, thereby improving the light absorption rate of some of the non-electrode regions and advantageously further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the first surface.

[0034] Hereinafter, each embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that in each embodiment of the present disclosure, many technical details are provided to help readers better understand the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, even without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments, the technical means for which the embodiments of the present disclosure seek to protect can be realized.

[0035] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a solar cell, and the solar cell according to the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0036] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the solar cell includes a substrate 100 having a first surface 110 including electrode regions 101 and non-electrode regions 102 arranged alternately along a first direction X, a doped conductive layer 103 located in each electrode region 101 and also located in a portion of at least one non-electrode region 102, and a dielectric layer 104 located between the first surface 110 and the doped conductive layer 103, wherein the first surface 110 includes a first portion 120 facing the doped conductive layer 103 and a second portion 130 not facing the doped conductive layer 103, the first portion 120 having a first surface structure 140 including a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a, and the second portion 130 having a second surface structure 150 including a plurality of platform structures 150a.

[0037] Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a first type of partial planar structure of a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure along a first cross-sectional direction AA1 of the solar cell shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an enlarged schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of block I in Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a partial planar structure of a first surface of a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0038] 4, different drawing methods are used for the first portion 120 and the second portion 130 to clearly distinguish between the first portion 120 and the second portion 130. The first portion 120 is the electrode region 101 and a part of the non-electrode region 102 on the surface of which the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are provided, and the second portion 130 is the remaining non-electrode region 102 on the surface of which the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are not provided.

[0039] The number of electrode regions 101 and the number of non-electrode regions 102 may both be plural, and the electrode regions 101 and non-electrode regions 102 may be arranged alternately along the first direction X; in other words, the electrode regions 101 may be located at the intervals between adjacent non-electrode regions 102, and the non-electrode regions 102 may be located at the intervals between adjacent electrode regions 101.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of electrode regions 101 and the number of non-electrode regions 102 are not limited, and only two electrode regions 101 and three non-electrode regions 102 are shown in Figures 1, 2, and 4. Furthermore, the first surface 110 facing the doped conductive layer 103 refers to the first surface 110 that overlaps with the orthogonal projection of the doped conductive layer 103 onto the first surface 110.

[0041] Also, the doped conductive layer 103 may not be present in all of the non-electrode regions 102, but may be present in only some of the non-electrode regions 102, and only some of the non-electrode regions 102 having the doped conductive layer 103 face the doped conductive layer 103, with the remaining some regions not being shielded by the doped conductive layer 103. Alternatively, the doped conductive layer 103 is present in some regions of each non-electrode region 102. The above two cases will be described in detail below.

[0042] In any of the above cases, in addition to the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 sequentially stacked on the electrode region 101, which are designed to form a first passivation contact structure in the electrode region 101, the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are also sequentially stacked on a partial region of at least one non-electrode region 102, and the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 in this partial region are used to form a second passivation contact structure in the non-electrode region 102. Based on this, the first passivation contact structure can passivate the electrode region 101 so as to reduce the probability of carrier recombination in the electrode region 101, and the second passivation contact structure is not only advantageous in reducing the probability of carrier recombination in the non-electrode region 102, but also advantageous in transporting and collecting carriers in the non-electrode region 102 and providing them to the electrode region 101, and the cooperation between the first passivation contact structure and the second passivation contact structure is advantageous in improving the carrier collection efficiency of the entire first surface 110, i.e., further reducing carrier loss across the entire first surface 110.

[0043] In addition, since a portion of at least one non-electrode region 102 is not shielded by the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, some light rays can be irradiated onto the portion of the non-electrode region 102 without passing through the doped conductive layer 103 and the dielectric layer 104, thereby improving the absorption rate of the portion of the non-electrode region 102 for light rays, which is advantageous for further improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the first surface 110.

[0044] In addition, whether the first passivation contact structure is located mainly in the electrode region 101 or the second passivation contact structure is located in the non-electrode region 102, both can reduce carrier recombination on the first surface 110, and the difference between them is mainly that the passivation effect is performed on different regions of the first surface 110, which is advantageous for increasing the open circuit voltage of the solar cell and improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0045] The first surface 110 is divided into a first portion 120 facing the doped conductive layer 103 and a second portion 130 not facing the doped conductive layer 103, and is designed so that the first portion 120 has a first surface structure 140 including a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a, and the second portion 130 has a second surface structure 150 including a plurality of platform structures 150a. On the one hand, compared with the second portion 130, the first portion 120 having a plurality of first pyramidal structures 140a has a larger surface area, and since the electrode region 101 in the first portion 120 is in electrical contact with the electrode, increasing the contact area between the electrode region 101 and the electrode is advantageous for reducing the contact resistance between the electrode region 101 and the electrode, thereby improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers on the first surface 110 by the electrode. On the other hand, compared with the second portion 130, the surface morphology of the first portion 120 having a plurality of first pyramidal structures 140a is more uneven, in other words, the surface roughness is higher, which is advantageous for increasing the probability that light rays incident on the first portion 120 at different angles will be absorbed by the first portion 120 through the first pyramidal structures 140a. This is advantageous for further improving the light absorption rate of the first portion 120, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire first surface 110.

[0046] In addition, compared to a case where the surface morphology of the entire first surface 110 all has a pyramidal structure, i.e., the surface morphologies of the first portion 120 and the second portion 130 all have a pyramidal structure, the first portion 120 has a surface morphology with a first pyramidal structure 140a and the second portion 130 has a surface morphology with a platform structure 150a. Furthermore, by designing the first portion 120, i.e., the electrode region 101 and some of the non-electrode regions 102, to have a dielectric layer 104 and a doped conductive layer 103, the passivation effect of the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 on the entire first surface 110 can be further improved, which is advantageous for reducing the probability of carrier recombination on the entire first surface 110.

[0047] In other embodiments, the electrode region 101 can be understood as a region of the substrate 100 facing an electrode in the thickness direction of the substrate 100, i.e., along the third direction Z, or as a region where the orthogonal projection of the electrode onto the substrate 100 is located. The non-electrode region 102 can be understood as a region of the substrate 100 that does not face an electrode, or as a region where the orthogonal projection of a region other than the electrode onto the substrate 100 is located. In practical applications, the orthogonal projection area of the electrode region 101 onto the substrate 100 may be equal to or greater than the orthogonal projection area of the electrode onto the substrate 100, which is advantageous in ensuring that all contact areas between the electrode and the substrate 100 are the electrode region 101. Note that the above electrodes are all electrodes facing the first surface 110 of the substrate 100, which will be described later. In some of the following embodiments, the electrode facing the first surface 110 of the substrate 100 is the first electrode.

[0048] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.

[0049] 2, the substrate 100 further includes a second surface 160 disposed opposite the first surface 110. In some cases, the first surface 110 may be the back surface of the solar cell, and the second surface 160 may be the front surface of the solar cell.

[0050] In another embodiment, Figure 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of block II in Figure 2, and as shown in Figures 1 and 5, the substrate 100 further has a second surface 160 arranged opposite to the first surface 110, and the second surface 160 has a third surface structure 170 including a plurality of second pyramid structures 170a.

[0051] Furthermore, the second pyramid structure 170a is advantageous in increasing the probability that light rays incident on the second surface 160 at different angles are reflected by the second pyramid structure 170a and absorbed by the second surface 160, thereby further improving the absorption rate of the remaining second surface 160 for light rays and improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire second surface 160.

[0052] In another embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the base dimension L1 of the first pyramid structure 140a is smaller than the base dimension L2 of the second pyramid structure 170a.

[0053] It should be noted that the first pyramidal structure 140a is a surface form of a portion of the first surface 110. On the one hand, the first pyramidal structure 140a improves the light absorption rate of the first surface 110, and on the other hand, it is necessary to consider the influence of the first pyramidal structure 140a on the passivation effect of the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 located on the first surface 110. Based on this, by designing the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a to be smaller than the one-dimensional dimension L2 of the bottom of the second pyramidal structure 170a, it is advantageous to ensure a high light absorption rate of the first surface 110 and a good passivation effect of the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 on the first surface 110.

[0054] In other embodiments, the size of the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the base of the first pyramid structure 140a may be 0.5 μm to 5 μm, for example, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, or 4.5 μm, and the maximum height of the first pyramid structure 140a along the third direction Z is 0.5 μm to 3 μm, for example, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, or 2.5 μm.

[0055] In other embodiments, the size of the one-dimensional dimension L2 of the base of the second pyramid structure 170a may be 2 μm to 5 μm, for example, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, or 4.5 μm, and the maximum height of the second pyramid structure 170a along the third direction Z is 1 μm to 3 μm, for example, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, or 2.5 μm.

[0056] 6 is a schematic planar structural diagram of the bottom of a first pyramidal structure in a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in FIG. 6, a one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a includes any one of the length, width, or diagonal length of the orthogonally projected pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100. FIG. 6 also shows an example in which the orthogonally projected pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 is a regular rectangle, and in this case, the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a is any one of the length, width, or diagonal length of the regular rectangle.

[0057] In practical applications, the orthogonal projection pattern of the base of the first pyramid structure 140a onto the substrate 100 may be an irregular polygon, in which case the length, width or diagonal length of the orthogonal projection pattern of the base of the first pyramid structure 140a onto the substrate 100 is not absolute but is artificially defined to represent one-dimensional dimension L1 of the base of the first pyramid structure 140a. For example, FIG. 7 is a schematic planar diagram of the bottom of a first pyramidal structure in a solar cell according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 7, the orthogonal projection pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 is an irregular rectangle. In this case, the length L11 of the orthogonal projection pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 may be defined as the side length of the longest side of the irregular rectangle. The width L12 of the orthogonal projection pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 may be defined as the side length of the shortest side of the irregular rectangle. The diagonal length L13 of the orthogonal projection pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 may be defined as the side length of the longest diagonal of the irregular rectangle. It can be understood that the above is merely an exemplary description and can be flexibly defined according to actual needs.

[0058] In addition, the orthogonal projection pattern of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a onto the substrate 100 may be, other than an irregular rectangle, another irregular polygon, a circle, or an irregular shape approximating a circle. In this case, the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a is obtained by selecting multiple regions with different specific areas at the bottom of the first pyramidal structure 140a, and then calculating the average value of the length, width, diagonal, or diameter of the multiple regions with different specific areas. The regions with the specific areas can be flexibly defined according to actual needs.

[0059] The one-dimensional dimension L2 of the bottom of the second pyramid structure 170a is defined in the same way as the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramid structure 140a, and therefore will not be described here. The one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of different first pyramid structures 140a may be the same or different, but the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramid structure 140a is within a single numerical range, and the one-dimensional dimension L2 of the bottom of different second pyramid structures 170a may be the same or different, but the one-dimensional dimension L2 of the bottom of the second pyramid structure 170a is also within a single numerical range.

[0060] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the bottom dimension L3 of the platform structure 150a is between 5 μm and 20 μm, such as 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 13 μm, 14 μm, 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, or 19 μm.

[0061] The one-dimensional dimension L3 of the bottom of the platform structure 150a is defined in the same way as the one-dimensional dimension L1 of the bottom of the first pyramid structure 140a, and therefore will not be described here. The one-dimensional dimension L3 of the bottom of different platform structures 150a may be the same or different, but the one-dimensional dimension L3 of the bottom of the platform structure 150a is within a single numerical range.

[0062] In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the direction from the dielectric layer 104 toward the doped conductive layer 103 is the third direction Z, a plane perpendicular to the third direction Z is the projection plane, and the orthogonal projection of the doped conductive layer 103 onto the projection plane is located within the orthogonal projection of the dielectric layer 104 onto the projection plane.

[0063] The first surface 110 facing the doped conductive layer 103, i.e., the first portion 120, includes not only the electrode region 101 but also the non-electrode region 102 on whose surface the doped conductive layer 103 is provided, and the first surface 110 not facing the doped conductive layer 103, i.e., the second portion 130, is the non-electrode region 102 that includes only a partial area.

[0064] Furthermore, whether it is the electrode region 101 provided with the doped conductive layer 103 or a portion of the non-electrode region 102 provided with the doped conductive layer 103, a dielectric layer 104 is provided between the electrode region 101 and the portion of the non-electrode region 102 and the doped conductive layer 103. In other words, a dielectric layer 104 is provided between the first portion 120 and the doped conductive layer 103, thereby ensuring that a dielectric layer 104 corresponding to the doped conductive layer 103 is designed in any region having the doped conductive layer 103 to form a passivation contact structure. The thickness direction of the substrate 100 is the direction from the dielectric layer 104 toward the doped conductive layer 103.

[0065] In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 4, the direction from the dielectric layer 104 toward the doped conductive layer 103 is the third direction Z, a plane perpendicular to the third direction Z is the projection plane, the orthogonal projection area of the first portion 120 belonging to the non-electrode region 102 onto the projection plane is a first area, the orthogonal projection area of the first surface 110 onto the projection plane is a second area, and the ratio of the first area to the second area is 5% to 30%.

[0066] If the ratio of the first area to the second area is less than 5%, the area of the non-electrode region 102 covered by the doped conductive layer 103 is too small, which is unfavorable for the doped conductive layer 103 to efficiently collect photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode region 102. If the ratio of the first area to the second area is greater than 30%, the area of the non-electrode region 102 covered by the doped conductive layer 103 is too large, which is unfavorable for incident light to be irradiated onto more of the non-electrode region 102, which is unfavorable for light absorption by the non-electrode region 102. Therefore, by designing the ratio of the first area to the second area to be 5% to 30%, it is possible to ensure that the doped conductive layer 103 has high collection efficiency for photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode region 102, and that most of the non-electrode region 102 is not shielded by the doped conductive layer 103, which is advantageous for ensuring high light absorption by the non-electrode region 102.

[0067] In another embodiment, Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of a second type of partial planar structure of a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in Fig. 8, the doped conductive layer 103 is located only in some of the non-electrode regions 102. In other words, the doped conductive layer 103 is provided only in some of the non-electrode regions 102 among the multiple non-electrode regions 102.

[0068] 8 shows two non-electrode regions 102 provided with doped conductive layers 103 and one non-electrode region 102 not provided with doped conductive layers 103, and in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of non-electrode regions 102 provided with doped conductive layers 103 and the number of non-electrode regions 102 not provided with doped conductive layers 103 are not limited and can be flexibly adjusted according to specific needs in actual applications. Also, FIG. 4 shows only one example of an arrangement of non-electrode regions 102 provided with doped conductive layers 103 and non-electrode regions 102 not provided with doped conductive layers 103, and in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the arrangement of non-electrode regions 102 provided with doped conductive layers 103 and non-electrode regions 102 not provided with doped conductive layers 103 is not limited and can be flexibly adjusted according to specific needs in actual applications.

[0069] In another embodiment, FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of a third type of partial planar structure of a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 8 , or FIG. 9 , the doped conductive layer 103 may include a plurality of first conductive portions 113 arranged at intervals along a first direction X, the first conductive portions 113 corresponding to the electrode regions 101, located in the corresponding electrode regions 101, and extending along a second direction Y intersecting the first direction X; and at least one second conductive portion 123, the second conductive portion 123 located in a corresponding non-electrode region 102, and one second conductive portion 123 located between two adjacent first conductive portions 113 and in contact with and connected to each of the two adjacent first conductive portions 113.

[0070] In addition, the doped conductive layers 103 located in one non-electrode region 102 are considered as a whole to be one second conductive portion 123, whether they are in contact with each other and connected or spaced apart from each other, and the specific structure of one second conductive portion 123 located in one non-electrode region 102 will be described in detail below.

[0071] In other words, for two adjacent first conductive portions 113 along the first direction X, a second conductive portion 123 can be provided at the interval between the two first conductive portions 113, and the second conductive portion 123 can be in contact with and connected to each of the two adjacent first conductive portions 113. In this way, it is advantageous for the photogenerated carriers in the non-electrode region 102 to be first collected by the second conductive portion 123, then transported to the first conductive portion 113 by the second conductive portion 123 that is in contact with and connected to the first conductive portion 113, and further transported to the electrode by the first conductive portion 113, thereby improving the collection efficiency of the photogenerated carriers at the first surface 110 by the electrode via the second conductive portion 123.

[0072] In some cases, as shown in FIG. 8, one second conductive portion 123 is not provided in each non-electrode region 102, and a second conductive portion 123 is not provided in the space between any two adjacent first conductive portions 113. In actual applications, the non-electrode regions 102 in which the second conductive portions 123 need to be provided and the number of second conductive portions 123 provided in the non-electrode regions 102 can be flexibly selected according to specific needs.

[0073] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the second conductive portions 123 are located in the non-electrode regions 102, but not all of the non-electrode regions 102 are provided with the second conductive portions 123.

[0074] In yet another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 , the second conductive portions 123 correspond to the non-electrode regions 102, in other words, one second conductive portion 123 is provided for each non-electrode region 102, and in this way, each non-electrode region 102 has a dielectric layer 104 and a second conductive portion 123 that can be passivated therefor, which not only reduces the probability of carrier recombination in each non-electrode region 102, but also advantageously allows any photo-generated carriers in each non-electrode region 102 to be collected by the corresponding second conductive portion 123 and further transported to the nearest first conductive portion 113.

[0075] In other embodiments, as shown in Figures 1, 8 or 9, the second conductive portion 123 may include a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, extending along the first direction X, and contacting and connected to adjacent first conductive portions 113.

[0076] In this way, both ends of the first elongated structure 133 in the first direction X are in contact with and connected to two adjacent first conductive portions 113, so that photogenerated carriers in a portion of the non-electrode region 102 can be directly transported to the first conductive portions 113 along the first direction X by the first elongated structure 133, which is advantageous in ultimately improving the collection efficiency of photogenerated carriers at the first surface 110 by the electrode.

[0077] 1 or 8, the second conductive portion 123 may include only a plurality of first elongated structures 133 spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the first elongated structures 133 extend along the first direction X and are in contact with and connected to adjacent first conductive portions 113. In another example, as shown in FIG. 8, only some of the non-electrode regions 102 may have the first elongated structures 133, i.e., only some of the non-electrode regions 102 may have the doped conductive layer 103. In yet another example, as shown in FIG. 1, each non-electrode region 102 has the first elongated structure 133, i.e., the second conductive portion 123 corresponds to each non-electrode region 102.

[0078] As shown in Figure 1 or Figure 8, the second conductive portion 123 only includes a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, and the first elongated structures 133 are the second conductive portion 123.

[0079] 1 and 8 only show that the second conductive portion 123 located in a certain non-electrode region 102 includes four first elongated structures 133, but in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of first elongated structures 133 included in any one second conductive portion 123 is not limited, and for example, the number of first elongated structures 133 included in the second conductive portion 123 may be 1, 2, 3, or 5, etc. Furthermore, although FIGS. 4 and 5 only show an example in which the number of first elongated structures 133 included in different second conductive portions 123 located in different non-electrode regions 102 is the same, in actual applications, the number of first elongated structures 133 included in different second conductive portions 123 located in different non-electrode regions 102 may be different and can be adjusted according to specific needs.

[0080] In another example, based on the second conductive portion 123 including only a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, the pitch in the second direction Y between adjacent first elongated structures 133 may be 5 μm to 200 μm.

[0081] The pitch between adjacent first elongated structures 133 affects the density of the arrangement of the plurality of first elongated structures 133, and in actual applications, the pitch between adjacent first elongated structures 133 can be flexibly adjusted according to the needs for the density of the arrangement of the first elongated structures 133. The pitches between two different adjacent first elongated structures 133 may be the same or different, for example, three adjacent first elongated structures 133 along the second direction Y have two pitches in the second direction Y, and the magnitudes of the two pitches may be the same or different.

[0082] In yet another case, Figure 10 is a schematic diagram of a fourth type of partial planar structure of a solar cell according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, and based on the second conductive portion 123 including a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y as shown in Figure 9 or Figure 10, the second conductive portion 123 may further include at least one second elongated structure 143 extending along the second direction Y.

[0083] As shown in FIG. 9 or 10, a plurality of first elongated structures 133 and at least one second elongated structure 143 located in the same non-electrode region 102 together constitute one second conductive portion 123.

[0084] In another example, as shown in FIG. 10, based on the second conductive portion 123 including a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, the second conductive portion 123 may include only one second elongated structure 143, and the second elongated structure 143 extends along the second direction Y.

[0085] In this way, based on the fact that both ends of the first elongated structure 133 in the first direction X are respectively in contact with and connected to two adjacent first conductive portions 113, the second elongated structure 143 can collect photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode region 102 along the second direction Y; on the one hand, the photo-generated carriers in some regions of the non-electrode region 102 can be directly transported to the first conductive portion 113 along the first direction X by the first elongated structure 133; on the other hand, the first elongated structure 133 can collect carriers in the second elongated structure 143 and further transport them to the first conductive portion 113 along the first direction X, which is advantageous in ultimately improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers at the first surface 110 by the electrode.

[0086] 9 , based on the second conductive portion 123 including a plurality of first elongated structures 133 arranged at intervals along the second direction Y, the second conductive portion 123 may include a plurality of second elongated structures 143 arranged at intervals along the first direction X and intersecting with the plurality of first elongated structures 133 to form a lattice structure 153. Note that the number of the plurality of second elongated structures 143 arranged at intervals along the first direction X is two or more.

[0087] In addition, along the second direction Y, the multiple first elongated structures 133 can each collect photo-generated carriers in different regions of the non-electrode region 102. Based on this, by designing multiple second elongated structures 143 intersecting the multiple first elongated structures 133 to form a lattice structure 153, multiple transport paths can be provided for the photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode region 102 to be transported to the first conductive portion 113. The multiple second elongated structures 143 can also each collect photo-generated carriers in different regions of the non-electrode region 102, thereby further improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers in the entire non-electrode region 102 by the lattice structure 153, which is advantageous for further improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers at the first surface 110 by the doped conductive layer 103, and ultimately improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers at the first surface 110 by the electrode.

[0088] 9 only shows that the second conductive portion 123 located in a certain non-electrode region 102 includes two second elongated structures 143, and in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of second elongated structures 143 included in any one second conductive portion 123 is not limited, and the number of second elongated structures 143 included in the second conductive portion 123 may be 3, 4, or 5, etc. Furthermore, the number of second elongated structures 143 included in different second conductive portions 123 located in different non-electrode regions 102 may be the same or different and can be adjusted according to specific needs.

[0089] As shown in FIG. 9 or 10, in an embodiment having a first conductive portion 113, a first elongated structure 133 and a second elongated structure 143, the first elongated structure 133 has a first width W1 along the second direction Y, the second elongated structure 143 has a second width W2 along the first direction X, and the first conductive portion 113 has a third width W3 along the first direction X that is greater than the first width W1 and greater than the second width W2.

[0090] Note that the first elongated structures 133 and the second elongated structures 143 are both mainly used to collect photo-generated carriers in different regions of the non-electrode regions 102, and the first elongated structures 133 and the second elongated structures 143 cannot cover too many non-electrode regions 102, lest too many non-electrode regions 102 be shielded and unable to absorb much light. Therefore, it is not preferable to design the first width W1 of the first elongated structures 133 and the second width W2 of the second elongated structures 143 to be too large. In contrast, the first conductive portion 113 not only needs to further collect the photo-generated carriers collected in the first elongated structures 133 and the second elongated structures 143, but also needs to contact the electrodes to ultimately transport the photo-generated carriers to the electrodes. Therefore, the first conductive portion 113 needs to be designed to have strong photo-generated carrier collecting ability and to have low contact resistance between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrodes.

[0091] Based on this, by designing the third width W3 to be larger than the first width W1 and larger than the second width W2, the volume of the first conductive portion 113 can be made larger than the volume of the first elongated structure 133 and larger than the volume of the second elongated structure 143, which is advantageous for, on the one hand, ensuring that the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 collect photo-generated carriers in different regions of the non-electrode region 102 and ensuring that the non-electrode region 102 can receive more incident light rays, thereby ensuring that the non-electrode region 102 has a high absorption rate for light rays; on the other hand, it is advantageous for improving the good collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers in the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 by the first conductive portion 113, and for increasing the contact area between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrode, thereby also advantageous for reducing the contact resistance between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrode. In this way, both work together to improve the light absorption rate of the first surface 110 and the passivation effect of the passivation contact structure consisting of the doped conductive layer 103 and the dielectric layer 104 on the first surface 110, thereby improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers on the first surface 110 by the electrode, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire first surface 110 and improving the bifaciality of the solar cell.

[0092] It should be noted that Figures 1 and 8 to 10 only illustrate the case where the first widths W1 of different first elongated structures 133 are the same, but in actual applications, the first widths W1 of different first elongated structures 133 may be different and can be adjusted according to specific needs; Figures 9 and 10 only illustrate the case where the second widths W2 of different second elongated structures 143 are the same, but in actual applications, the second widths W2 of different second elongated structures 143 may be different and can be adjusted according to specific needs; Figures 1 to 3 and 8 to 10 only illustrate the case where the third widths W3 of different first conductive portions 113 are the same, but in actual applications, the third widths W3 of different first conductive portions 113 may be different and can be adjusted according to specific needs.

[0093] As shown in Figures 1 and 8 to 10, in embodiments having a first elongated structure 133, the first elongated structure 133 has a first width W1 along the second direction Y, and the first width W1 may be 5 μm to 100 μm, for example, 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 70 μm, 75 μm, 80 μm, 85 μm, 90 μm, 95 μm, 100 μm, or 105 μm.

[0094] If the first width W1 is smaller than 5 μm, it is unfavorable for the first elongated structures 133 to efficiently collect photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode regions 102, and if the first width W1 is larger than 100 μm, too much of the non-electrode regions 102 is covered by the first elongated structures 133, which is unfavorable for incident light to be irradiated onto the non-electrode regions 102, and therefore unfavorable for light absorption by the non-electrode regions 102. Based on this, designing the first width W1 to be 5 μm to 100 μm is advantageous in ensuring that the first elongated structures 133 have high collection efficiency for photo-generated carriers in the non-electrode regions 102, and in ensuring that most of the non-electrode regions 102 are not blocked by the first elongated structures 133, thereby ensuring high light absorption by the non-electrode regions 102.

[0095] As shown in FIG. 9 or 10 , in an embodiment having the second elongated structures 143, the second elongated structures 143 have a second width W2 along the first direction X, and the second width W2 may be 5 μm to 100 μm, such as 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 70 μm, 75 μm, 80 μm, 85 μm, 90 μm, 95 μm, 100 μm, or 105 μm.

[0096] The technical effects achieved by designing the second width W2 to be 5 μm to 100 μm are similar to the technical effects achieved by designing the first width W1 to be 5 μm to 100 μm, and therefore will not be described here.

[0097] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and 8 to 10, in an embodiment having a first conductive portion 113, the first conductive portion 113 has a third width W3 along the first direction X, and the third width W3 may be 50 μm to 500 μm, for example, 60 μm, 80 μm, 100 μm, 150 μm, 200 μm, 250 μm, 300 μm, 350 μm, 400 μm, or 450 μm.

[0098] If the third width W3 is smaller than 50 μm, the contact area between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrode becomes smaller, the contact resistance between them becomes larger, and the loss that occurs when the photo-generated carriers are transported from the first conductive portion 113 to the electrode becomes greater, which is unfavorable for the first conductive portion 113 to collect the photo-generated carriers in the second conductive portion 123. If the third width W3 is larger than 500 μm, too much of the first surface 110 is covered by the first conductive portion 113, in other words, the proportion of the electrode area 101 in the first surface 110 is too large, which is unfavorable for the incident light to be irradiated onto the first surface 110, and is therefore unfavorable for the first surface 110 to absorb the light. Based on this, by designing the third width W3 to be 50 μm to 500 μm, it is ensured that the first conductive portion 113 has a high collection efficiency for photogenerated carriers in the second conductive portion 123, and by increasing the contact area between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrode, it is advantageous to reduce the contact resistance between the first conductive portion 113 and the electrode, and to increase the proportion of the non-electrode region 102 on the first surface 110, thereby ensuring a high absorption rate for light rays across the entire first surface 110.

[0099] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, the lattice structure 153 has a plurality of meshes 163 defined by a first elongated structure 133 and a second elongated structure 143, and the first dimension D1 of the meshes 163 in the first direction X may be 100 μm or less, and the second dimension D2 of the meshes 163 in the second direction Y may be 5 μm to 200 μm.

[0100] The mesh 163 is a region on the first surface 110 that is mainly used to absorb light rays. The first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 divide the exposed non-electrode region 102 into multiple meshes 163. By setting the first dimension D1 of the mesh 163 to 100 μm or less and the second dimension D2 to 5 μm to 200 μm, it is advantageous for the photogenerated carriers in each mesh 163 to be collected as intended by the first elongated structure 133 and / or second elongated structure 143 that is close to it. This allows the second conductive portion 123 to collect the photogenerated carriers in any one of the meshes 163 as intended, thereby improving the collection efficiency of the photogenerated carriers on the first surface 110 by the electrodes.

[0101] The outer periphery of some of the meshes 163 is surrounded by both the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143, and the outer periphery of other parts of the meshes 163 is surrounded by the first elongated structure 133, the second elongated structure 143, and the first conductive portion 113. The first dimension D1 of different meshes 163 arranged along the first direction X may be the same or different, and the second dimension D2 of different meshes 163 arranged along the second direction Y may be the same or different, and both can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0102] In another embodiment, the thickness of the doped conductive layer 103 along the third direction Z may be between 50 nm and 200 nm.

[0103] In another embodiment, FIG. 11 is another partial cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of a solar cell according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in FIG. 11 , the solar cell may further include a first electrode 107 in electrical contact with the doped conductive layer 103.

[0104] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11 , the solar cell may further include a first passivation layer 105 covering the first surface 110 on which the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are formed, and the first electrode 107 penetrates the first passivation layer 105 and makes electrical contact with the doped conductive layer 103.

[0105] In other embodiments, the first passivation layer 105 may be a single layer structure or a laminated structure, and the material of the first passivation layer 105 may be at least one of materials such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon oxycarbonitride, titanium oxide, hafnium oxide, or aluminum oxide.

[0106] In another example, as shown in FIG. 11, the first passivation layer 105 includes a first sub-passivation layer and a second sub-passivation layer stacked sequentially along the third direction Z, and the material of the first sub-passivation layer may be aluminum oxide, and the material of the second sub-passivation layer may be at least one of silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and silicon oxynitride.

[0107] In another embodiment, the thickness of the first sub-passivation layer in the third direction Z may be 5 nm to 10 nm.

[0108] In another embodiment, and as shown in FIG. 11, the substrate 100 may further have a second surface 160 disposed opposite the first surface 110, and the solar cell may further include a second electrode 117 electrically connected to the second surface 160.

[0109] In another embodiment, and as shown in FIG. 11 , the solar cell may further include a second passivation layer 115 located on the second surface 160, with the second electrode 117 penetrating the second passivation layer 115 and making electrical contact with the second surface 160.

[0110] The film layer structure and material composition of the second passivation layer 115 are similar to those of the first passivation layer 105, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted here.

[0111] 1 to 3 and 8 to 11, the first conductive portion 113 and the second conductive portion 123 are depicted using different fill patterns to distinguish them from each other, but in actual applications, the first conductive portion 113 and the second conductive portion 123 may be formed synchronously. 9, 10 and 11, the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 are depicted using different fill patterns to distinguish them from each other, but in actual applications, the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 both belong to the second conductive portion 123, that is, the first elongated structure 133 and the second elongated structure 143 may be formed synchronously.

[0112] Based on the above, the first surface 110 is divided into a first portion 120 facing the doped conductive layer 103 and a second portion 130 not facing the doped conductive layer 103, and is designed so that the first portion 120 has a first surface structure 140 including a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a, and the second portion 130 has a second surface structure 150 including a plurality of platform structures 150a. On the one hand, compared with the second portion 130, the first portion 120 having a plurality of first pyramidal structures 140a has a larger surface area, and since the electrode region 101 in the first portion 120 is in electrical contact with the electrode, increasing the contact area between the electrode region 101 and the electrode is advantageous for reducing the contact resistance between the electrode region 101 and the electrode, thereby improving the collection efficiency of photo-generated carriers on the first surface 110 by the electrode. On the other hand, compared with the second portion 130, the surface morphology of the first portion 120 having a plurality of first pyramidal structures 140a is more uneven, in other words, the surface roughness is higher, which is advantageous for increasing the probability that light rays incident on the first portion 120 at different angles will be absorbed by the first portion 120 through the first pyramidal structures 140a. This is advantageous for further improving the light absorption rate of the first portion 120, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire first surface 110. Furthermore, because the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are provided not only in the electrode region 101 but also in some of the non-electrode regions 102, they have a passivation effect on both the electrode region 101 and the non-electrode regions 102, which is advantageous for reducing carrier recombination at the first surface 110. Because a portion of at least one non-electrode region 102 is not shielded by the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, some light can be irradiated onto some of the non-electrode regions 102 without passing through the doped conductive layer 103 and the dielectric layer 104, which is advantageous for improving the light absorption rate of some of the non-electrode regions 102. In this way, all aspects work together to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire first surface 110, which is advantageous for improving the bifaciality of the solar cell.

[0113] A stacked battery according to another embodiment of the present disclosure includes the solar cell according to the above embodiment. Hereinafter, the stacked battery according to the other embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that descriptions of parts that are the same as or correspond to those in the above embodiment will be omitted.

[0114] FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of a partial cross-sectional structure of a stacked battery according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0115] As shown in Figures 2 and 12, the stacked cell 106 includes a bottom cell 116, which is a solar cell described in any one of the above, and a top cell 126 located on the side of the doped conductive layer 103 of the bottom cell 116 away from the substrate 100.

[0116] In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 2, 11 and 12, the substrate 100 further has a second surface 160 disposed opposite the first surface 110, and the top cell 126 is located on the side of the first surface 110 away from the second surface 160.

[0117] 2 and 12 , the bottom cell 116 may simply include a substrate 100 having a first surface 110, and a dielectric layer 104 and a doped conductive layer 103 sequentially stacked on the first surface 110, such that the first surface 110 not covered by the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, the dielectric layer 104, and the doped conductive layer 103 together form one surface, and the top cell 126 is located directly on that surface. In one example, the stacked battery may further include a composite layer located between the top cell 126 and the surface formed by the first surface 110 not covered by the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, the dielectric layer 104, and the doped conductive layer 103.

[0118] 11 and 12 , based on the bottom cell 116 including a substrate 100 having a first surface 110, and a dielectric layer 104 and a doped conductive layer 103 sequentially stacked on the first surface 110, the bottom cell 116 may further include a first passivation layer 105 covering the first surface 110 on which the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are formed, and a first electrode 107 located on a portion of the surface of the first passivation layer 105 away from the substrate 100 and penetrating the first passivation layer 105 to be in electrical contact with the doped conductive layer 103. In other words, the top cell 126 is located on the side of the first passivation layer 105 away from the substrate 100 and covers the surface of the first passivation layer 105 and the surface of the first electrode 107.

[0119] In another embodiment, the top cell 126 may include a stack of a first transport layer, a perovskite substrate, a second transport layer, a transparent conductive layer, and an anti-reflective layer. The first transport layer faces the bottom cell 116.

[0120] In other embodiments, the first transport layer may be one of an electron transport layer or a hole transport layer, and the second transport layer may be the other of an electron transport layer or a hole transport layer.

[0121] A method for manufacturing a solar cell according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure is used to manufacture the solar cell according to the above embodiment. Hereinafter, the method for manufacturing a solar cell according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that descriptions of parts that are the same as or correspond to the above embodiment will be omitted here.

[0122] 13 to 20 are schematic partial cross-sectional structural views corresponding to the steps of a method for manufacturing a solar cell according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0123] As shown in FIGS. 13 to 20, the method for manufacturing a solar cell includes at least the following steps.

[0124] In S101, as shown in FIG. 13, an initial substrate 180 having an initial first surface 181 including initial electrode regions 111 and initial non-electrode regions 112 alternately arranged along a first direction X is provided.

[0125] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, the initial substrate 180 further has an initial second surface 182 arranged opposite to the initial first surface 181, and as shown in FIGS. 13 and 5, before subsequently forming the initial dielectric layer 114, the manufacturing method may further include performing a second texturing process on the initial second surface 182 to convert the initial second surface 182 into a second surface 160, and the second surface 160 has a third surface structure 170 including a plurality of second pyramid structures 170a.

[0126] In some cases, after subsequently forming the first pyramid structure based on the initial first surface 181, the first pyramid structure's bottom dimension L1 is smaller than the second pyramid structure's bottom dimension L2.

[0127] In some cases, Figure 14 is a partially enlarged schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of the initial substrate 180 after a second texturing process has been performed in a manufacturing method according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in Figures 13 and 14, in the step of performing a second texturing process on the initial second surface 182, the second texturing process is further performed on the initial first surface 181 so that the initial first surface 181 has an initial first surface structure 190 including a third pyramid structure 190a.

[0128] Note that, because the second pyramid structure 170a and the third pyramid structure 190a are formed synchronously by the second texturing process, the one-dimensional dimension L2 of the bottom of the second pyramid structure 170a is similar to the one-dimensional dimension L4 of the bottom of the third pyramid structure 190a. Furthermore, by forming the second pyramid structure 170a and the third pyramid structure 190a in the same process step, not only can the process flow be saved, but the third pyramid structure 190a also lays the foundation for the subsequent formation of the first surface, such that the surface morphology of the electrode region includes a plurality of platform structures and the surface morphology of a portion of the non-electrode region includes a plurality of first pyramid structures.

[0129] The one-dimensional dimension L4 of the bottom of the third pyramid structure 190a is defined in the same way as the one-dimensional dimension of the bottom of the first pyramid structure in the above embodiment, and therefore will not be described here. The one-dimensional dimension L4 of the bottom of different third pyramid structures 190a may be the same or different, but the one-dimensional dimension L4 of the bottom of the third pyramid structure 190a is within a single numerical range.

[0130] In another embodiment, after performing the second texturing process and before subsequently forming the initial dielectric layer, the manufacturing method may further include the following steps:

[0131] An emitter is formed in a region of the initial substrate 180 adjacent to the second surface 160, with the emitter top surface exposed in the initial substrate 180 and overlapping the second surface 160. The type of doping element in the emitter is opposite to the type of doping element in the initial substrate 180, and ultimately forms a PN junction with the substrate.

[0132] In another example, the diffused sheet resistance of the emitter may be between 80 Ω / sq and 200 Ω / sq.

[0133] In another example, the method of forming the emitter may include performing a first doping process on the second surface 160 to diffuse a doping element into a portion of the initial substrate 180 to form the emitter. In one example, the first doping process may be one of an ion implantation process or a source diffusion process.

[0134] It should be noted that in some cases, if the initial substrate 180 is an N-type substrate, a boron diffusion process may be performed on the second surface 160, and in other cases, if the initial substrate 180 is a P-type substrate, a phosphorus diffusion process may be performed on the second surface 160.

[0135] In addition, in the step of performing a first doping process on the second surface 160 to form an emitter, taking boron diffusion processing as an example, borosilicate glass is easily formed on the surface of the initial substrate 180. The surface of the initial substrate 180 on which borosilicate glass is formed includes, but is not limited to, the initial first surface 181, the side surface of the initial substrate 180, and the second surface 160. Therefore, it is necessary to use chain hydrofluoric acid to at least remove the borosilicate glass located on the initial first surface 181 and the side surface of the initial substrate 180.

[0136] Similarly, in the step of performing a phosphorus diffusion process on the second surface 160 to form an emitter, phosphosilicate glass is likely to form on the surface of the initial substrate 180, and it is also necessary to at least remove the phosphosilicate glass located on the initial first surface 181 and side surfaces of the initial substrate 180.

[0137] In S102, as shown in FIGS. 14, 15, and 16, a first polishing process and a first texturing process are performed on the initial first surface 181 so that the initial first surface 181 includes a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a.

[0138] 15 is a partially enlarged schematic cross-sectional view of the initial first surface 181 after a first polishing process is performed in a manufacturing method according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, in the step of performing the first polishing process on the initial first surface 181, the third pyramid structures 190a are removed to obtain the initial first surface 181 whose surface form is the polished structures 190b. FIG. 16 is a partially enlarged schematic cross-sectional view of the initial first surface 181 after performing the first polishing process and the first texturing process in a manufacturing method according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the initial first surface 181 is further subjected to a first texturing process so that the initial first surface 181 includes a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a.

[0139] In addition, in the step of performing the first polishing process on the initial first surface 181, the third pyramid structure 190a is gradually etched from the top of the pyramid, and the initial first surface 181 finally has a surface form of the polished structure 190b.

[0140] 13 and 17, an initial dielectric layer 114 is formed to cover the initial first surface 181. In S104, and also as shown in FIG. 17, an initial doped conductive layer 173 is formed to cover the surface of the initial dielectric layer 114 away from the initial substrate 180.

[0141] 17 , the step of forming the initially doped conductive layer 173 may further include forming a second doped conductive layer (not shown) covering the second surface 160, where the type of doping element in the initially doped conductive layer 173 is the same as the type of doping element in the second doped conductive layer. In other words, the initially doped conductive layer 173 and the second doped conductive layer are formed in the same process step.

[0142] In another embodiment, the step of forming the initial doped conductive layer 173 and the second doped conductive layer may include the following steps.

[0143] A first deposition process is simultaneously performed on second surface 160 and textured initial first surface 181 to form a first amorphous silicon layer (not shown) on the surface of initial dielectric layer 114 remote from initial substrate 180 and a second amorphous silicon layer (not shown) on second surface 160. For example, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition can be used to form the first and second amorphous silicon layers.

[0144] A crystallization process is simultaneously performed on the first amorphous silicon layer and the second amorphous silicon layer to convert the first amorphous silicon layer into a first polycrystalline silicon layer (not shown) and to convert the second amorphous silicon layer into a second polycrystalline silicon layer (not shown). In another embodiment, the crystallization process includes performing an annealing heat treatment on the first amorphous silicon layer and the second amorphous silicon layer.

[0145] After the first polycrystalline silicon layer and the second polycrystalline silicon layer are formed, a second doping process is performed on the first polycrystalline silicon layer and the second polycrystalline silicon layer to convert the first polycrystalline silicon layer into an initially doped conductive layer 173 and convert the second polycrystalline silicon layer into a second doped conductive layer.

[0146] In other embodiments, the second doping process may be one of an ion implantation process or a source diffusion process.

[0147] In another embodiment, the element doped into the target in the first doping process is different from the element doped into the target in the second doping process.

[0148] In one example, the doping element used in the first doping process is boron element, and the doping element used in the second doping process is phosphorus element.

[0149] In one example, the doping element used in the second doping process is phosphorus, and after the second doping process is performed, phosphosilicate glass is formed in each of the initially doped conductive layer 173 and the second doped conductive layer, and the second doped conductive layer and the phosphosilicate glass are removed in a subsequent step.

[0150] In S105, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the initial doped conductive layer 173 located in a portion of the initial non-electrode region 112 is treated by a laser process.

[0151] 18, 173b indicates the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process, and 173a indicates the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process. 173a and 173b are drawn with different fill patterns. In other words, the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process can be regarded as the first doped conductive layer 173a, and the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process can be regarded as the second doped conductive layer 173b. Here, the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process, i.e., the first doped conductive layer 173a, is subsequently retained as a doped conductive layer, and the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process, i.e., the second doped conductive layer 173b, is subsequently removed.

[0152] In another embodiment, the step of forming the initially doped conductive layer 173 further includes forming a second doped conductive layer covering the second surface 160, and phosphosilicate glass located on the initially doped conductive layer 173 and the second doped conductive layer. The step of treating the initially doped conductive layer 173 located in a portion of the initial non-electrode region 112 by a laser process includes performing a laser process on the entire second doped conductive layer, thereby changing the material properties of the entire second doped conductive layer and the material properties of the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process. This makes the material properties of the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process different from the material properties of the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process, and subsequently allows the initially doped conductive layer 173 located in the initial non-electrode region 112 treated by the laser process to be easily removed.

[0153] 19, the initial doped conductive layer 173 located in the initial non-electrode region 112 is divided into a plurality of laser action regions 183, and the plurality of laser action regions 183 are arranged at intervals along the second direction Y. Note that, as shown in FIG. 19 and FIG. 1, the laser action regions 183 correspond to the intervals between adjacent first elongated structures 133 to be formed subsequently, so that the second conductive portion 123 shown in FIG. 1 is formed by the laser action regions 183.

[0154] In yet another embodiment, as shown in Fig. 20, a plurality of laser action regions 183 are arranged at intervals along each of a first direction X and a second direction Y intersecting the first direction X. Note that, as shown in Fig. 20 and Fig. 9, the laser action regions 183 correspond to a mesh 163 to be subsequently formed, in which a plurality of second elongated structures 143 and a plurality of first elongated structures 133 intersect to form the lattice structure 153, so that the lattice structure 153 shown in Fig. 9 is formed by the laser action regions 183.

[0155] It should be noted that the above are merely two examples for finally forming the first conductive portion 113 and the second conductive portion 123. In actual applications, the second conductive portion 123 can also be formed as shown in Figures 8 and 10 by designing the specific shape of the laser active region 183. Figure 19 is a schematic planar structural view of the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by a laser process, and Figure 20 is another schematic planar structural view of the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by a laser process. In order to clearly show the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process and the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process, in Figures 19 and 20, 173b denotes the initially doped conductive layer 173 treated by the laser process, and 173a denotes the initially doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process, and 173a and 173b are drawn in different filled-in patterns.

[0156] Next, the step of treating the initial doped conductive layer 173 located in a portion of the initial non-electrode region 112 by a laser process includes treating the initial doped conductive layer 173 located in the laser action region 183 by a laser process, and the remaining initial doped conductive layer 173 not treated by the laser process is subsequently used as a doped conductive layer.

[0157] In another embodiment, the laser used in the laser process is a picosecond laser, and the wavelength of the laser may be between 300 nm and 1000 nm, such as 400 nm, 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm, or 900 nm.

[0158] In another embodiment, the spot energy density of the laser used in the laser process is 10 W / cm 2 ~106W / cm 2 For example, 103.5 W / cm 2 , 104W / cm 2 , 104.5W / cm 2 , 105W / cm 2 or 105.5 W / cm2 And so on.

[0159] In other embodiments, the line width of the laser used in the laser process may be between 80 μm and 1500 μm, such as 100 μm, 300 μm, 500 μm, 600 μm, 700 μm, 850 μm, 900 μm, 1000 μm, 1100 μm, 1200 μm, 1300 μm, or 1400 μm.

[0160] In S106, as shown in Figures 16, 18 and 3, the initial doped conductive layer 173 and the initial dielectric layer 114 treated by the laser process are removed by an etching process to convert the first pyramid structure 140a of the exposed initial first surface 181 into a platform structure 150a, thereby forming a substrate having a first surface 110, and the remaining initial dielectric layer 114 located in the electrode region 101 and the non-electrode region 102 is the dielectric layer 104, and the remaining initial doped conductive layer 173 located in the electrode region 101 and the non-electrode region 102 is the doped conductive layer 103.

[0161] 16, 18 and 3, in the step of removing the initial doped conductive layer 173 and the initial dielectric layer 114 treated by the laser process by an etching process, the first pyramid structure 140a on the exposed initial first surface 181 may be etched to convert the first pyramid structure 140a on the exposed initial first surface 181 into a platform structure 150a.

[0162] In another embodiment, in the step of forming the initially doped conductive layer 173, a second doped conductive layer covering the second surface 160 is further formed, and the entire second doped conductive layer is subjected to a laser process treatment. Based on this, in the step of removing the initially doped conductive layer 173 and the initial dielectric layer 114 treated by the laser process through an etching process, the second doped conductive layer and the phosphosilicate glass located on the initially doped conductive layer 173 and the second doped conductive layer are further removed.

[0163] In another embodiment, the etching process for removing the initial doped conductive layer 173 and the initial dielectric layer 114 treated by the laser process may be alkaline etching, and the etching solution for alkaline etching may be a mixed solution containing potassium hydroxide and a texturing additive.

[0164] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the finally formed first surface 110 includes a first portion 120 facing the doped conductive layer 103 and a second portion 130 not facing the doped conductive layer 103, and the first portion 120 has a first surface structure 140 including a plurality of first pyramid structures 140a, and the second portion 130 has a second surface structure 150 including a plurality of platform structures 150a.

[0165] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11 , after forming the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, the manufacturing method may further include a step of forming a first passivation layer 105 covering the first surface 110 on which the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103 are formed, and a step of forming a second passivation layer 115 covering the second surface 160.

[0166] In some cases, the deposition process may form the first passivation layer 105 and the second passivation layer 115 simultaneously.

[0167] In another example, both the first passivation layer 105 and the second passivation layer 115 may have a laminated structure, for example, by simultaneously growing an aluminum oxide thin film on the first surface 110 and the second surface 160 by an atomic layer deposition process, and then depositing a combined film layer of one or more of silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and silicon oxynitride on the aluminum oxide thin film by a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process.

[0168] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11 , after forming the dielectric layer 104 and the doped conductive layer 103, the manufacturing method may further include forming a first electrode 107 through the first passivation layer 105 and in electrical contact with the doped conductive layer 103, and forming a second electrode 117 through the second passivation layer 115 and in electrical contact with the second surface 160.

[0169] In some cases, the first electrode 107 and the second electrode 117 may be formed by a screen printing process.

[0170] In some cases, the first electrode 107 and / or the second electrode 117 are sintered, and the sintering temperature may be 700°C to 800°C, such as 720°C, 750°C, 820°C, or 840°C, which is advantageous for good ohmic contact between the first electrode 107 and the doped conductive layer 103, and between the second electrode 117 and the second surface 160.

[0171] In view of the above, in yet another embodiment of the present disclosure, first, a first texturing process is performed on the surface of the initial substrate 180 to prepare for the subsequent formation of the first portion 120 having the first pyramid structure 140a; after forming the initial dielectric layer 114 and the initial doped conductive layer 173 on the surface having the first pyramid structure 140a, the initial doped conductive layer 173 located in a part of the initial non-electrode region 112 is processed by a laser process; then, the initial doped conductive layer 173 and the initial dielectric layer 114 processed by the laser process are removed by an etching process, and the first pyramid structure of the exposed initial first surface 181 is removed. The structure 140a is etched to convert the first pyramid structure 140a on the exposed initial first surface 181 into a platform structure 150a to form a second portion 130 having the platform structure 150a, and the remaining initial first surface 181 not etched by the etching process becomes the first portion 120 having the first pyramid structure 140a, thereby forming a substrate having a first surface 110, the remaining initial dielectric layer 114 located in the electrode region 101 and the non-electrode region 102 becomes the dielectric layer 104, and the remaining initial doped conductive layer 173 located in the electrode region 101 and the non-electrode region 102 becomes the doped conductive layer 103.

[0172] A solar cell module according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure includes a cell string formed by connecting a plurality of solar cells according to any one of the above embodiments or by connecting a plurality of stacked cells according to the above embodiments, and the solar cell module is used to convert received light energy into electrical energy. Fig. 21 is a partial three-dimensional structure schematic diagram of a solar cell module according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 22 is a cross-sectional structure schematic diagram taken along the second cross-sectional direction MM1 of Fig. 21. Note that for parts that are the same as or correspond to those of the above embodiments, reference can be made to the corresponding descriptions of the above embodiments, and descriptions thereof will be omitted below.

[0173] 21 and 22, the solar cell module includes a battery string formed by connecting the solar cells 40 according to the above embodiment, by connecting a plurality of stacked batteries 106 (see FIG. 12) according to the above embodiment, or by connecting a plurality of solar cells formed by the manufacturing method according to the above embodiment, a sealing adhesive film 41 that covers the surface of the battery string, and a cover plate 42 that covers the surface of the sealing adhesive film 41 that is spaced apart from the battery string. The solar cells 40 are electrically connected as a whole or in the form of a plurality of slices to form a plurality of battery strings, and the plurality of battery strings are electrically connected in series and / or in parallel.

[0174] In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 22, multiple battery strings may be electrically connected via conductive tape 402. Figure 22 shows only one positional relationship between solar cells, i.e., the arrangement direction of electrodes of the same polarity of the cells is the same, or the electrodes of each cell having a positive polarity are all arranged facing the same side, so that conductive tape is connected to different sides of two adjacent cells. In another embodiment, the cells may be ordered in such a way that electrodes of different polarities face the same side, i.e., the electrodes of adjacent cells are respectively of a first polarity, a second polarity, and a first polarity, and conductive tape is connected to two adjacent cells on the same side.

[0175] In other embodiments, there is no space between the cells, i.e., the cells overlap each other.

[0176] In another embodiment, the sealing adhesive film 41 includes a first sealing layer and a second sealing layer, the first sealing layer covering one of the front and back surfaces of the solar cell 40, and the second sealing layer covering the other of the front and back surfaces of the solar cell 40. Specifically, at least one of the first sealing layer and the second sealing layer may be an organic sealing adhesive film such as a polyvinyl butyral (abbreviated as PVB) adhesive film, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) adhesive film, a polyethylene octene copolymer (POE) adhesive film, or a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) adhesive film.

[0177] In some cases, the first encapsulating layer and the second encapsulating layer have a boundary before lamination, and after the lamination process to form the solar cell module, there is no concept of the first encapsulating layer and the second encapsulating layer, i.e., the first encapsulating layer and the second encapsulating layer form an integral encapsulating adhesive film 41.

[0178] In another embodiment, the cover plate 42 may be a light-transmitting cover plate such as a glass cover plate or a plastic cover plate.
