Abstract
The invention relates to a slurry and a method for forming a light absorbing layer of a solar cell. The present invention provides a slurry comprising: 1 part by weight of antimony-doped CIGS nanoparticles; 0.05 to 0.15 parts by weight of a dispersant; and 4 to 7 parts by weight of an organic solvent in which the antimony-doped CIGS nanoparticles are suspended by a dispersant. The invention also provides a method for forming a light-absorbing layer of a solar cell, which comprises providing a substrate, forming a back electrode layer on the substrate; applying the paste to the back electrode layer; heating to remove the organic solvent to form a precursor layer; and thermally treating the precursor layer to form a light absorbing layer.
Description
Technical field
System of the present invention, about solar cell, particularly forms about the slurry forming its light-absorption layer.
Background technology
CIGS coating technique mainly can be divided into the vacuum process technology such as common evaporation (Co-evaporation), sputter (Sputtering), and is coated with the antivacuum process technique such as (Coating), chemistry sprinkling pyrolysismethod (Chemicalspraypyrolysis), electro-deposition (Electrodeposition).The equipment of vacuum process and maintenance expense costliness thereof, although the high problem also having high cost of photoelectric conversion efficiency.Antivacuum process technique has the advantage of low equipment cost and high materials'use rate, and volume production quite has Advantages and Patontial, and therefore many companies and research institution drop into antivacuum process technique energetically.Chemistry sprays pyrolysismethod because of shortcomings such as compactness are poor and materials'use rate is lower in the middle of antivacuum processing procedure, less use recently.Galvanoplastic often meet with the problems such as the not good and bubble of plated film uniformity, and the manufacturer therefore dropped into is less.Coating process is expected most, and drop into the also maximum technology of manufacturer.
At present prepare with coating process the flow process that copper indium gallium selenium solar cell absorbs photosphere and roughly can be summarized as three steps: the preparation of predecessor slurry, with wet coating method slurry to be plated on molybdenum base material, again, in high temperature selenizing mode, the element in predecessor or compound to be reacted into CIGS thin-film.The form of predecessor slurry is broadly divided into corpuscular type and solution-type, no matter form why, all need form copper-indium-gallium-selenium compound through pyroreaction, therefore mostly needs the predecessor of preparation more than two to prepare light-absorption layer in the middle of existing technology.Although the CIGS thin-film efficiency of pyroreaction mode gained is verified, predecessor is prepared numerous and diverse and time-consuming, and is difficult to during pyroreaction avoid dephasign generate and be difficult to control the composition of film.
In sum, the light-absorption layer that new slurry forms solar cell is needed at present badly, to overcome the problem of aforementioned multiple predecessor slurry.
Summary of the invention
One embodiment of the invention provides a kind of slurry, comprising: the copper-indium-gallium-selenium nanoparticles of the antimony dopant of 1 weight portion; The dispersant of 0.05 to 0.15 weight portion; And 4 to 7 organic solvents of weight portion, wherein the copper-indium-gallium-selenium nanoparticles of antimony dopant is suspended in organic solvent by dispersant.
One embodiment of the invention provides a kind of formation method of light-absorption layer of solar cell, comprising: provide substrate, forms back electrode layer on substrate; Above-mentioned slurry is put on back electrode layer; Heat and form precursor layer to remove organic solvent; And heat treatment precursor layer is to form light-absorption layer.

Embodiment
One embodiment of the invention provides a kind of slurry, comprising: the copper-indium-gallium-selenium nanoparticles of the antimony dopant of 1 weight portion; The dispersant of 0.05 to 0.15 weight portion; And 4 to 7 solvents of weight portion, wherein the copper-indium-gallium-selenium nanoparticles of antimony dopant is suspended in organic solvent by dispersant.If the consumption of organic solvent is too much, then the solid content of slurry is easily too low, is unfavorable for coating process.If the consumption of organic solvent is too low, then slurry viscosity is easily too high, and be full of cracks problem easily appears in coating.If the consumption of dispersant is too low, in slurry, Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS:Sb) nano particle of antimony dopant is easy to assemble and cannot effectively disperse.If the consumption of dispersant is too high, then slurry is too sticky causes coating not easily, and is difficult to remove dispersant and easily have carbon residue problem in the step of subsequent heat formation light-absorption layer.
The composition of above-mentioned CIGS:Sb is as shown in Equation 1:
