Abstract

The invention discloses a cleaning solution and a cleaning method for a silicon nitride film on the surface of a silicon chip. The method comprises the following step of: cleaning the silicon nitride film on the surface of the silicon chip by adopting the cleaning solution, wherein the cleaning solution contains potassium permanganate and hydrofluoric acid in a mass ratio of 1: (90-130). According to the technical scheme, the silicon nitride film on the surface of the unqualified silicon chip (a dreg falling chip or a rainbow chip) is cleaned by adopting the cleaning solution prepared by dissolving the potassium permanganate and the hydrofluoric acid in the mass ratio of 1: (90-130) into water, so that the silicon nitride film on the surface can be removed, the thickness of the silicon chip can also be ensured, and corrosion of the silicon chip is not affected by the length of the reaction time.

Description

The cleaning fluid of the silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface and sweep-out method
Technical field
The present invention relates to the solar cell preparing technical field, in particular to a kind of cleaning fluid and sweep-out method of silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface.
Background technology
In the prior art, the main flow process of the production of crystal silicon battery is generally: the deposition of making herbs into wool, diffusion, wet etching, antireflective coating, serigraphy and sintering.Wherein, the deposition of antireflective coating normally adopts PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition, plasma reinforced chemical vapour deposition method) technique to form silicon nitride film.Silicon nitride (SI 3N 4) film is navy blue antireflective film-Si 3N 4Film, it has remarkable anti-oxidant and insulating properties, has simultaneously the good ability that stops sodium ion, shelters metal and water vapor diffusion; Its chemical stability is also fine, and except hydrofluoric acid and hot phosphoric acid can slowly corrode, other acid was substantially inoperative with it.
Yet in the manufacture of solar cells process, the PECVD operation the defective cell piece of plated film outward appearance easily occurs owing to equipment or technique is unusual.As fall slag sheet, rainbow plate etc., wherein, fall that the slag sheet refers to since on the equipment silicon nitride particle of long-term deposition drop to silicon chip surface, cause being blocked by silicon nitride the silicon chip of the silicon nitride film that the position can not plate; Rainbow plate refers to because device transmission stops, the graphite boat of carrying silicon chip is stuck in the processing chamber, and the silicon chip of the silicon chip surface silicon nitride film uneven distribution of formation is because different silicon nitride deposit thickness can present different colors, therefore, this type of silicon chip is called rainbow plate.
In order to reduce production costs, special cleaning method is processed the purpose that reaches the secondary utilization thereby this type of cell piece need to be chosen employing before printing.At present, usually use following method that underproof silicon chip is cleared up: 1, with the silicon nitride film behind the hydrofluoric acid clean PECVD: use HF and pure water to regulate the cleaning fluid of suitable concentration, the silicon chip behind the plated film is carried out the soaking and washing striping.2, with silicon nitride film behind the phosphoric acid cleaning PECVD: use H 3PO 4Cleaning fluid with pure water adjusting suitable concentration carries out the soaking and washing striping to the silicon chip after behind the plated film.3, with silicon nitride film behind hydrofluoric acid and the nitric acid mixed liquor cleaning PECVD: use HF and HNO 3Mixed liquor is regulated the suitable concentration cleaning fluid, and silicon chip behind the PECVD is carried out the soaking and washing striping.But existing these cleaning methods can cause serious waste usually, this be because PECVD after defective silicon chip be divided into two kinds: 1, fall the slag sheet: about the even 80nm of whole plated film, part surface not plated film cause surperficial defective; 2, rainbow plate: monolithic membrane thickness unevenness thickness is at 75~200nm.Existing technique can be cleared up the defective silicon chip of the first and be recycled, and defective silicon chip behind the second plated film uses existing the 1st, 2 kind of scheme to process this type of silicon chip because thickness is uneven, causes and can't the secondary utilization cause waste.Use the 3rd kind of scheme to remove, but since in the 3rd the scheme herb liquid can corrode silicon chip, the uneven distribution of rainbow plate silicon nitride film simultaneously, the silicon nitride film corrosion rate of the different thickness of liquid is different.In order fully the silicon nitride film of full wafer to be cleaned up, can cause the silicon chip uneven distribution can't the secondary utilization after the cleaning.
Summary of the invention
The present invention aims to provide a kind of cleaning fluid and sweep-out method of silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface, can not effectively carry out the technical problem that silicon nitride film is removed to falling slag sheet or rainbow plate to solve cleaning method of the prior art.
To achieve these goals, according to an aspect of the present invention, provide a kind of sweep-out method of silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface.The method may further comprise the steps: adopt cleaning fluid to remove the silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface, wherein to contain mass ratio be 1: 90~130 potassium permanganate and hydrofluoric acid to cleaning fluid.
Further, to contain mass ratio be 1: 120 potassium permanganate and hydrofluoric acid to cleaning fluid.
Further, the quality percentage composition 1%~10% of potassium permanganate in the cleaning fluid, the quality percentage composition of hydrofluoric acid is 40%~80%.
Further, silicon chip adopts cleaning fluid at room temperature to soak 0.4~1 hour falling the slag sheet for falling the slag sheet.
Further, adopt cleaning fluid to soak 0.5 hour falling the slag sheet.
Further, silicon chip is rainbow plate, adopts cleaning fluid at room temperature rainbow plate to be soaked 3.5~4.5 hours.
Further, adopt cleaning fluid that rainbow plate was soaked 4 hours.
Further, after adopting cleaning fluid to remove the silicon nitride film of silicon chip surface, further comprise: adopt pure water that silicon chip is washed twice, then with hot-air seasoning the silicon chip of removing silicon nitride film is carried out drying.
According to another aspect of the present invention, provide a kind of removing liquid for removing the silicon chip surface silicon nitride film, the quality percentage composition of potassium permanganate is 1%~10% in this cleaning fluid, and the quality percentage of hydrofluoric acid contains 40%~80%.
Use technical scheme of the present invention, adopt potassium permanganate and hydrofluoric acid to clean according to the silicon nitride film of 1: 90~130 the mass ratio cleaning fluid that is mixed with soluble in water to underproof silicon chip (falling slag sheet or rainbow plate) surface, not only can remove the silicon nitride film on surface, simultaneously can also guarantee the thickness of silicon chip, and the corrosion of silicon chip is not subjected to the impact of reaction time length.
