[0019] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: The present invention discloses a method for preparing an N-type TOPCon battery, comprising the following steps: texturing of an N-type silicon wafer 1, boron diffusion and laser micro-doping of an emitter, re-diffusion to form a front mask, polishing of the back of the N-type silicon wafer, three-in-one coating (growth of a tunneling silicon oxide thin film layer, a doped amorphous silicon thin film layer and a back mask on the back of the battery, the three film layers are deposited in the same device), annealing, cleaning of the front and back masks, deposition of a passivation film on the front and back, and printing and sintering to form a battery. The present invention provides a method for preparing an N-type TOPCon battery, which can complete the preparation of a tunneling silicon oxide thin film layer and an amorphous silicon thin film layer in one step, without the need for a complex process of forming a tunneling silicon oxide thin film layer by tubular oxidation and then doping, thereby greatly simplifying the process flow; in addition, the boron diffusion followed by laser micro-doping and re-diffusion in the present invention can greatly improve the doping conditions in the emitter region, which is beneficial to improving battery efficiency.
