The invention discloses a conductive
electrode, a preparation method thereof and a
crystalline silicon solar cell, and belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic cells, the conductive
electrode comprises a
semiconductor base material and a first conductive structure, the
semiconductor base material comprises a substrate, a tunneling layer, an n-doped
polycrystalline silicon layer and a first
passivation layer; the first conductive structure is arranged on the first
passivation layer, penetrates through the first
passivation layer and is electrically connected with the n-doped
polycrystalline silicon layer; wherein the first conductive structure comprises conductive
metal, the conductive
metal comprises silver, and at least part of the conductive
metal penetrates through the first passivation layer and is in
electric contact with the face, facing the first passivation layer, of the n-doped
polycrystalline silicon layer; and the n-doped polycrystalline
silicon layer does not contain silver crystals. Therefore, silver crystals cannot grow into the n-doped polycrystalline
silicon layer while the first conductive structure forms ohmic electrical contact with the n-doped polycrystalline
silicon layer through the conductive metal, damage to the n-doped polycrystalline silicon layer is effectively reduced, the recombination loss is further reduced, and the
photoelectric conversion efficiency of the
crystalline silicon solar cell is ensured.
