[0042] In the related art, a solar cell is a semiconductor device that directly converts the energy of sunlight into electricity. The solar cell utilizes the photovoltaic effect to excite electrons by absorbing photons, and to guide these electrons out to generate electric current by the built-in electric field. The back contact cell refers to a solar cell in which the light-receiving surface of the cell piece is free of electrodes, and the positive and negative electrodes are arranged on the back light side of the cell piece, so that the shading of the cell piece by the electrodes can be reduced, the short-circuit current of the cell piece can be increased, and the energy conversion efficiency of the cell piece can be improved.

However, the pre-adhesive occupies the surface space of the cell piece, affects the light receiving rate of the cell piece, and the arrangement of the pre-adhesive also increases the cost of the cell. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the pre-adhesive is arranged between the first stringing area and the second stringing area, so that the solder strips arranged in the first stringing area and the second stringing area can be pre-fixed at the same time, the amount of pre-adhesive used is reduced, the influence on light is reduced, and the cost is reduced.

Each of the first fine grids 20 has a first soldering section 21 at a position intersecting the first stringing area 50. All of the first soldering sections 21 are located within the first stringing area 50. Each of the second fine grids 30 has a second soldering section 31 at a position intersecting the second stringing area 60.

The pre-adhesive 40 is arranged between the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 and at least partially extends into the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60.

[0045] In the back contact cell 100 without busbars of the disclosed embodiment, the back contact cell 100 includes a silicon substrate 10, a plurality of first fine grids 20 and a plurality of second fine grids 30, and a pre-adhesive 40. The silicon substrate 10 includes a front surface and a back surface opposite to each other. The plurality of first fine grids 20 and the plurality of second fine grids 30 are arranged on the back surface. The plurality of first fine grids 20 and the plurality of second fine grids 30 are arranged alternately and spaced apart along a first direction, and extend along a second direction. The second direction intersects the first direction. The back surface has a plurality of first stringing areas 50 and a plurality of second stringing areas 60 for arranging solder ribbons 70. The first stringing areas 50 and the second stringing areas 60 extend along the first direction and intersect all of the first fine grids 20 and the second fine grids 30. The plurality of first stringing areas 50 and the plurality of second stringing areas 60 are arranged alternately and spaced apart along the second direction. Each of the first fine grids 20 has a first soldering section 21 at a position intersecting the first stringing area 50. All of the first soldering sections 21 are located within the first stringing area 50. Each of the second fine grids 30 has a second soldering section 31 at a position intersecting the second stringing area 60. All of the second soldering sections 31 are located within the second stringing area 60. The pre-adhesive 40 is arranged on the back surface. The pre-adhesive 40 is arranged between the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 and at least partially extends into the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60. In this way, the pre-adhesive 40 is arranged between the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60, so that the solder ribbons 70 arranged in the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 can be pre-fixed simultaneously, the use amount of the pre-adhesive 40 is reduced, the influence on light is reduced, and the cost is reduced.

[0046] In the embodiment, the front surface of the silicon substrate 10 is used to receive light, and the back surface of the silicon substrate 10 includes a plurality of first doped layers and second doped layers (not shown in the figure) arranged alternately, the first doped layers are provided with the first fine grids 20, and the second doped layers are provided with the second fine grids 30. The first fine grids 20 and the second fine grids 30 extend along the second direction and are arranged alternately along the first direction, and the first doped layers and the second doped layers also extend along the second direction and are arranged alternately along the first direction. In the embodiment, the back surface of the silicon substrate 10 is not provided with a main grid, and the first fine grids 20 and the second fine grids 30 can directly realize the convergence of current through the solder strip 70.

[0047] In the embodiment, the doping types of the first doped layers and the second doped layers are not limited, for example, the first doped layers and the second doped layers can be P-type doped layers and N-type doped layers respectively; or the first doped layers can be N-type doped layers, and the second doped layers can be P-type doped layers, as long as the polarities of the two are opposite to meet different requirements. In some embodiments, the first doped layers can be P-type polycrystalline silicon layers, P-type amorphous silicon layers, or P-type microcrystalline silicon layers, which are not limited here. Similarly, the second doped layers can be N-type polycrystalline silicon layers, N-type amorphous silicon layers, or N-type microcrystalline silicon layers, which are not limited here. When the first doped layers are P-type doped layers and the second doped layers are N-type doped layers, P-type grid lines can be further provided on the first doped layers, and N-type grid lines can be further provided on the second doped layers, which are not limited here.

[0048] In some embodiments, P-type doping refers to doping group III elements, including boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, thallium, and the like; and N-type doping refers to doping group V elements, including nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth, and the like, which are not limited here.

[0049] In addition, in some embodiments, the first doped layers and the second doped layers can also be composite doped, for example, N-type doping also includes a small amount of P-type doping elements. The content of the N-type doping elements of the second doped layers is higher than 20% of the content of the P-type doping elements, so as to ensure that the polarity of the first doped layers is opposite to that of the second doped layers.

[0050] Specifically, the first direction and the second direction can be the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction of the back contact cell 100 without a main grid, respectively. Of course, in other embodiments, the first direction and the second direction can also be other directions, for example, the two can be diagonal directions of the silicon substrate 10, which are not limited here.

[0051] It is not difficult to understand that in the conventional technology, the dispensing adhesive points are usually arranged on the grid line segments of the fine grids for soldering, the solder paste pads are arranged on the soldering segments, and the dispensing adhesive points need to be as close as possible to the center points of the solder strips 70. Due to the close distance, the height of the dispensing adhesive points is greater than the height of the soldering positions, which easily causes the solder strips 70 to fail to contact the corresponding soldering points near the dispensing adhesive points, thereby easily causing a virtual soldering.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the pre-adhesive 40 is arranged between the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 and at least partially extends into the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60. That is, the solder strip 70 connected with the positive fine grid and the solder strip 70 connected with the negative fine grid are close to each other, and a pre-adhesive 40 is used for pre-connection to realize the positioning of the two solder strips 70 and ensure the positioning accuracy. One pre-adhesive 40 can simultaneously pre-fix the solder strips 70 arranged in the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60, thereby reducing the use amount of the pre-adhesive 40, reducing the influence on light, and reducing the cost.

[0053] In addition, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the form and preparation method of the pre-adhesive 40 are not limited to meet different needs. In one embodiment, the pre-adhesive 40 is arranged at the corresponding position by a spraying process. In this way, the arrangement position of the pre-adhesive 40 is more accurate, the speed of arranging the pre-adhesive 40 is faster, and the spraying equipment does not need to be in direct contact with the battery piece, which can reduce the pollution and damage to the battery piece. Further, the pre-adhesive 40 can be at least one of light-cured and heat-cured.

[0054] Embodiment two

[0055] Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 3. In some optional embodiments, at least one first soldering segment 21 and the remaining at least one first soldering segment 21 are staggered with each other in the first direction within the first stringing area 50, and at least one second soldering segment 31 and the remaining at least one second soldering segment 31 are staggered with each other in the first direction within the second stringing area 60.

[0056] In the embodiment, the back surface has a plurality of first stringing areas 50 and a plurality of second stringing areas 60 for arranging the solder strips 70, the first stringing areas 50 and the second stringing areas 60 extend along the first direction and cross all the first fine grids 20 and the second fine grids 30, and the plurality of first stringing areas 50 and the plurality of second stringing areas 60 are sequentially and alternately arranged along the second direction. Each first fine grid 20 has a first soldering segment 21 at the crossing position with the first stringing area 50, and all the first soldering segments 21 are located within the first stringing area 50. Each second fine grid 30 has a second soldering segment 31 at the crossing position with the second stringing area 60, and all the second soldering segments 31 are located within the second stringing area 60.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in the first stringing area 50, at least one first welding section 21 is staggered with the rest of the at least one first welding section 21 in the first direction, that is, in the first direction, at least one first welding section 21 is not completely aligned (that is, not completely located on the same straight line parallel to the first direction) with the rest of the at least one first welding section 21. At the same time, in the second stringing area 60, at least one second welding section 31 is staggered with the rest of the at least one second welding section 31 in the first direction, that is, in the first direction, at least one second welding section 31 is not completely aligned (that is, not completely located on the same straight line parallel to the first direction) with the rest of the at least one second welding section 31. In this way, the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 can avoid the pre-adhesive 40 by staggering, leaving enough space for the pre-adhesive 40.

[0058] In some embodiments, the first welding section 21 and the second welding section 31 are both thick grid sections, that is, the first welding section 21 is thicker than other parts of the first fine grid 20, and the second welding section 31 is thicker than other parts of the second fine grid 30. In some embodiments, the length (that is, the length in the second direction) of the first welding section 21 and the second welding section 31 can be 250-350 μm, and the width (that is, the length in the second direction) can be 25-50 μm, so as to ensure the contact area of the first welding section 21 and the second welding section 31 with the solder strip 70 and improve the stability of welding.

[0059] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the pre-adhesive 40 is at least partially disposed in the second stringing area 60, the solder strip 70 is covered on the first stringing area 50, the solder strip 70 on the first stringing area 50 is bonded with the left end of the pre-adhesive 40 and contacts the solder layer on the first welding section 21, and the solder strip 70 on the second stringing area 60 is bonded with the right end of the pre-adhesive 40 and contacts the solder layer on the second welding section 31.

[0060] Embodiment three

[0061] Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in some optional embodiments, according to the arrangement order of the first welding section 21 in the first direction, the first line segment 51 formed by sequentially connecting the center points of all the first welding sections 21 is a non-straight line segment, and the first line segment 51 has at least one first recessed segment 511.

[0062] Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in some optional embodiments, according to the arrangement order of the second welding section 31 in the first direction, the second line segment 61 formed by sequentially connecting the center points of all the second welding sections 31 is a non-straight line segment, and the second line segment 61 has at least one second recessed segment 611.

[0063] Thus, in the welding process, the welding layer can be arranged on the first welding section 21 and the second welding section 31, and when the pre-adhesive 40 is used to pre-fix the solder strip 70, the pre-adhesive 40 can be arranged at a position where the openings of the first recess section 511 and the second recess section 611 face, so that the distance between the welding sections corresponding to the first recess section 511 and the second recess section 611 of the pre-adhesive 40 is far, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of virtual welding in the subsequent welding process, and at the same time, the adhesion of the pre-adhesive 40 to the solder strip 70 can be ensured.

[0064] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the specific forms of the first recess section 511 and the second recess section 611 are not limited to meet different needs. For example, in some embodiments, the first recess section 511 and the second recess section 611 can also be arc-shaped sections, that is, the first line section 51 can be composed of the first straight line section 512 and an arc-shaped section, and the second line section 61 can be composed of the second straight line section 612 and an arc-shaped section. For another example, the first line section 51 can be a wavy line, that is, in the up-down direction of the first direction, the arrangement profile of the first welding section 21 is wavy, and the first line section 51 is an arc-shaped curve as a whole. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first recess section 511 and the second recess section 611 can also have other forms, which will be described below by taking the first recess section 511 as an example.

[0065] In some embodiments, the first line section 51 has at least one first straight line section 512, the first straight line section 512 is arranged in parallel to the first direction, and the first recess section 511 is offset in the second direction compared to the first straight line section 512. In this way, by arranging the first straight line section 512, the first welding sections 21 on the first straight line section 512 are located on the same straight line parallel to the first direction, which can improve the welding efficiency in the welding process (such as laser welding), and at the same time, the same straight line of the solder strip 70 having a plurality of welding points can improve the reliability and stability of the welding.

[0066] In other embodiments, the first recess section 511 can include a first sub-straight line section 5111 parallel to the first straight line section 512 and a first inclined section 5112 connecting the first sub-straight line section 5111 and the first straight line section 512. In this way, the first sub-straight line section 5111 and the first inclined section 5112 constitute the first recess section 511, and the first welding sections 21 on the first sub-straight line section 5111 are located on the same straight line parallel to the first direction, which can increase the same straight line of the solder strip 70 having a plurality of welding points to improve the reliability and stability of the welding. Of course, the second recess section 611 can include a second sub-straight line section 6111 parallel to the second straight line section 612 and a second inclined section 6112 connecting the second sub-straight line section 6111 and the second straight line section 612, which is not limited in detail.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first linear segment 512 and the first recessed segment 511 are arranged alternately and sequentially. In this way, by arranging a plurality of first linear segments 512 and first recessed segments 511, at least one pre-adhesive 40 can be arranged at the position corresponding to each first recessed segment 511, thereby arranging a plurality of pre-adhesives 40 while effectively avoiding false welding, and improving the stability and adhesion of the pre-fixing of the solder tape 70.

[0068] It should be noted that the first stringing area 50 and the second stringing area 60 of the present disclosure refer to the area covered by the solder tape 70 on the back surface and the area covered by the solder tape 70 on the back surface, which is not strictly divided on the back surface by physical marking, but a virtual defined area.

[0069] In addition, it should be noted that the first linear segment 51 in the present disclosure is not a physical linear segment existing on the battery piece, but a virtual line. The first linear segment 51 can be a smooth curve, a combination of curves and straight lines, or a combination of curves and polylines. The specific form is not limited herein, for example, if the center point of the first welding segment 21 in the area corresponding to the first recessed segment 511 is a curve profile, then the first recessed segment 511 can be a polyline segment formed by connecting straight lines sequentially, or a smooth curve segment.

[0070] Further, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the center point of the first welding segment 21 refers to a point that divides the first welding segment 21 into two symmetrical halves in the second direction, i.e., the midpoint of the first welding segment 21 in the second direction. It is not difficult to understand that in the present disclosure, the lengths of all first welding segments 21 are substantially the same.

[0071] In addition, it should be noted that in some embodiments, in the first stringing area 50, an insulating layer is arranged at the position where the first stringing area 50 intersects with the second fine grid 30, i.e., an insulating layer can be arranged at the position where each second fine grid 30 intersects with the solder tape 70, thereby preventing the solder tape 70 from contacting fine grids of different polarities. Meanwhile, in the second stringing area 60, an insulating layer is arranged at the position where the second stringing area 60 intersects with the first fine grid 20, i.e., an insulating layer can be arranged at the position where each first fine grid 20 intersects with the solder tape 70, thereby preventing the solder tape 70 from contacting fine grids of different polarities. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the form and preparation method of the insulating layer are not limited to meet different needs.
