A kind of solar cell front side silver paste and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of solar batteries, particularly relate to a kind of solar cell front side silver paste and
Its preparation method.
Background technology
Along with shortage and people's concern to CO2 emission of the traditional energies such as coal, oil, natural gas,
Solar energy generation technology has obtained the development of saltatory.Wherein crystal silicon solar energy battery technology is as solar energy
The main body of generation technology, enjoys the concern of people always, continuous by crystal silicon solar energy battery technology
Research, its photoelectric transformation efficiency constantly promotes.
The quality of solaode except depend on carrier concentration in used crystal silicon material, distribution and
Beyond mobility, also affected by battery plus-negative plate electrode performance.Wherein front electrode directly affects and goes here and there
Connection resistance, shunt resistance, fill factor, curve factor and photoelectric transformation efficiency, therefore the quality of front electrode silver slurry determines
The performance of solaode.
Conductive silver paste mainly includes following ingredient: argentum powder, organic carrier, glass dust and inorganic add
Add agent.In front side silver paste, in addition to key component argentum powder, the composition of glass dust and inorganic additive and
Content plays vital effect to the impact of the final efficiency of cell piece.
At present, mostly the glass dust of preparation silver slurry is business-like high pbo glass powder, rotten by the lead in glass dust
The SiN anti-reflection layer of erosion silicon chip surface, and assist argentum powder to form secondary crystallization at silicon face, form effective Europe
Nurse contacts.Thus it is common to use high pbo glass powder is as the raw material preparing front side silver paste.But from the most silica-based
From the point of view of the trend of solar energy development, the square resistance that silicon chip surface is high will become main flow, because high square resistance silicon chip
Improve short wave response, photoelectric transformation efficiency can be effectively improved.And the PN junction of high square resistance silicon based cells is relatively low
The PN junction of sheet resistance is shallow, as gone high temperature corrosion with common high pbo glass powder, it is easy to puncture PN junction, it is difficult to
Reach due efficiency.It is thus desirable to find the comparatively gentle glass of novel corrosivity to reach appropriateness corrosion
Effect.By the interpolation of inorganic additive, neutralization lead corrosion performance can be played and promote argentalium alloy shape
The effect become.Therefore, by the selection of inorganic additive kind and content being expanded tradition front side silver paste
Range so that it is can not only be suitable on high square resistance silicon based cells sheet, moreover it is possible to be effectively improved silica-based
The efficiency of solaode.Solar cell front side silver paste patent and reported literature are more, as in patent at present
US20110308597, US20110232746, US20110308596 disclose and utilizes tellurate glass powder
Prepare solar cell front side silver paste.But, tellurate glass powder is relatively low because of lead content, the corruption to silicon chip
But erosion property is poor, although meets the demand of high square resistance but reduces the sintering degree of glass dust and silicon chip,
Thus reduce welding pulling force.One defect of the silver slurry that therefore prepared by tellurate glass powder is exactly grid line and silicon
The sintering character of sheet is poor.Use lead-free glass powder and inorganic additive is disclosed in patent US7935279
TeO2And Bi2O3Prepare solar cell front side silver paste, but the front side silver paste conversion efficiency prepared by this invention
Low, it is difficult to commercialization.
Therefore, how to obtain a kind of conversion efficiency high, welding pulling force is big, and preparation method step is few too simultaneously
Sun energy cell front side silver paste, is still worth people to be continually striving to explore.

From the test result of table 1 it can be seen that by the present invention in that and use TeO2Micropowder as inorganic additive,
And by controlling TeO2The content of micropowder and granularity, ensure that silicon chip surface SiN anti-reflection layer corrodes, and promotes
While argentalium alloy is formed, slow down the lead corrosion to silicon chip so that gained silver slurry slurry can be at height
Apply on the silicon based cells of sheet resistance, and every electrical property all reaches the light of higher level, particularly battery
Photoelectric transformation efficiency (Eff) value, has reached 18.24%, thus has been effectively improved solaode transformation efficiency.
And by comparative example it will be seen that although traditional high lead silver slurry can be at low square resistance (less than 70 ohm/side)
Silica-based solar cell on be suitable for, but efficiency is obviously high not as the silicon based cells of high square resistance.And high lead silver
Slurry obviously cannot form good Ohmic contact on the silica-based solar cell sheet of high square resistance, therefore can not fit
With.
From table 2 it can be seen that the present invention is while improving the efficiency of silica-based solar cell, do not make
Welding pulling force declines, and efficiently avoid the tellurate glass welding low defect of pulling force, its meansigma methods up to
3.8N, good welding pulling force ensure that the permanent service life of silica-based solar cell.
