Description

High-efficiency battery based on nano silicon slurry containing high-concentration boron and manufacturing method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a high-efficiency cell based on high-concentration boron-containing nano silicon slurry and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The crystalline silicon solar cell is the mainstream of the current photovoltaic market due to the high conversion efficiency and long service life. At present, the commercial quantity production of the crystalline silicon solar cell is mainly based on a p-type cell. Compared with the p-type conventional battery, the p-type PERC (Passivated Emitter and reactor Contact) battery has the following advantages: and (1) internal back reflection is enhanced, and optical loss of long waves is reduced. (2) The high quality of the back passivation greatly improves the open circuit voltage (Voc) and short circuit current (Isc) of the PERC battery, so that the conversion efficiency is higher, and the highest conversion efficiency can approach or exceed 22%. Moreover, since the compatibility between the process for manufacturing the PERC cell (as shown in a in fig. 3) and the process for manufacturing the P-type conventional cell is high, the introduction of the process for manufacturing the P-type conventional cell into the PERC cell technology is low in cost and efficient, and the production capacity of the PERC cell is expected to completely replace the existing P-type conventional cell in the coming years.
However, the average efficiency of the PERC battery production is actually achieved by more than 22% by the conventional PERC process and technology reserve, and a plurality of advanced technologies need to be superimposed, which not only increases the cost and difficulty of battery manufacturing, but also requires significant addition and modification of equipment and processes on the existing production line, and these solutions cannot meet the application requirements of the industry exceeding the PERC battery.
Currently, a method for improving performance of a PERC cell includes printing a boron-containing doped silicon nanoparticle slurry on a passivation film on a back surface of the PERC cell, and upgrading the PERC structure to a PERL (Passivated Emitter Rear Localized) structure, where the method includes: printing boron-containing nano silicon slurry on a passivation film on the back surface of the battery according to a designed pattern (the main stream is Al) 2 O3 and SiN x Laminated constructions of (a); performing successive scanning on the borosilicate slurry coating film pattern after the preliminary drying by using a suitable laser (the disclosure data shows that the borosilicate slurry coating film pattern is 532nm, and the borosilicate slurry coating film pattern is pulsed but not limited to this type), opening a passivation film (a contact channel between a back electrode and a substrate silicon wafer) positioned below the coating film by using an instant high-temperature thermal effect generated by the laser, and doping boron contained in the slurry into a predetermined region on the back surface of the silicon wafer (i.e. the laser simultaneously performs two functions of opening the passivation film and partially doping boron); finally, aluminum paste is printed on the entire back surface of the battery, and the aluminum paste and the silver paste on the front surface of the battery are sintered together, so that a modified PERC (like PERL) high-efficiency battery with the partially doped boron region is formed. The BSF (Back Surface field) formed by the local al paste thermal diffusion with the local high-concentration laser doping and boron instead of the local al paste thermal diffusion can significantly improve Voc (open circuit voltage) and FF (fill factor), thereby improving the conversion efficiency of the cell. However, the methodThe method at least has the following defects, which causes the unstable battery efficiency improving effect and the low cost performance of mass production introduction: (1) According to a manufacturing process of a conventional PERC cell, after laser is partially doped with boron, aluminum paste needs to be printed on the back surface of the cell completely, and then the aluminum paste and the front silver paste are sintered at the same time to form front and back electrodes in good contact with a silicon wafer, wherein the sintering temperature of conventional silver paste is generally required to be above 850 ℃ for achieving good contact with the silicon wafer, the forming temperature of aluminum-silicon alloy is only 577 ℃, and the diffusion temperature of boron is at least above 1000 ℃, in view of manufacturing cost and productivity, high-temperature sintering in which front silver paste is only used in a mass production mode (that is, the sintering temperature is about 850), such a high-temperature sintering process can cause an over-excited reaction between aluminum and silicon in the back aluminum paste, and aluminum entering the silicon wafer from below the electrode can greatly surpass a B-BSF boron back field formed by laser doping (the depth of the laser-doped boron can only reach about 5um, and the aluminum can enter the silicon wafer more than 10um under a high-temperature condition), thereby the efficiency of damaging or offsetting the laser-doped boron. (2) The boron content in the boron nano silicon slurry is limited by the synthesis mode of the silicon nanoparticles, the molar ratio of boron to silicon is less than or equal to 0.02, and the efficiency improvement effect due to laser doping with boron is difficult to ensure under the condition that interference is caused by overexcitation of aluminum and silicon at high temperature.
In addition, there is also a method of improving the performance of the PERC cell, i.e., SE-PERC technology (where SE is a Selective Emitter), as shown in b of fig. 3, by using the front POCl of the PERC cell 3 In the PSG (phosphosilicate glass) formed after the phosphorus oxychloride diffusion is doped with the laser irradiation under appropriate conditions to form the patterned phosphorus-heavily doped region (SE), the improvement in the cell efficiency of the method, which is more than 0.15% on average compared to the standard PERC, can be stably obtained. The SE structure can greatly reduce the impedance between the silver electrode and the silicon wafer, so that the silver paste on the front side of the battery can be well contacted with the silicon wafer under the low-temperature sintering condition. In addition, from the perspective of achieving good contact between the front silver electrode and the silicon wafer, the SE structure with the higher phosphorus-doping concentration is more favorable for achieving good contact between the front silver paste and the silicon wafer at a lower temperature. However, in the SE-PERC technique, POCl is utilized 3 After spreadingThe phosphorus diffusion concentration realized by the formed PSG is limited, the sintering temperature is difficult to be greatly reduced, the B-BSF formed by the over-excited reaction between aluminum and silicon cannot be effectively prevented, and the efficiency of the battery is effectively improved; and too high phosphorus concentration can cause loss of incident light of a window part which is exposed to sunlight and outside the SE structure, so that the improvement effect of the conversion efficiency of the cell is not obvious. In addition, in order to achieve a higher phosphorus doping SE structure, a higher phosphorus concentration is obtained under a higher density laser condition, but the silicon wafer is more damaged (due to POCl) 3 The PSG formed by diffusion has almost no absorption to the used laser wavelength), and the improvement of the battery efficiency cannot be effectively realized.

Example 1
As shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment discloses a method for manufacturing a high efficiency battery based on a nano silicon slurry containing high concentration of boron, which includes:
s1, taking a silicon wafer, cleaning and texturing, setting an SE (selective emitter) area on the front surface of the silicon wafer, and printing phosphorus-containing nano silicon slurry in the SE area.
In this embodiment, the silicon wafer is a P-type monocrystalline silicon wafer, and certainly, other types of silicon wafers may also be used, which is not further limited in this embodiment.
In this embodiment, the step S1 further includes drying the printed phosphorus-containing nano-silica slurry. Wherein the average grain diameter of silicon nano particles in the phosphorus-containing nano silicon slurry is not more than 50nm, and the phosphorus content is not less than 5x10^ s 19 atoms/cm 3 . The drying temperature is preferably 180-250 ℃, the drying time is preferably 8-15min, the thickness of the phosphorus-containing film layer formed after drying is preferably controlled to be about 1.8 μm, and the line width is preferably controlled to be about 148 μm.
It should be noted that the printing in this embodiment preferably uses a conventional screen printing technique, and the details are not described below.
Step S2, in POCl 3 Phosphorus diffusion is performed in the atmosphere, so that phosphorus-silicon glass (PSG, i.e., a silicon dioxide layer containing phosphorus atoms) is formed on the surface of the silicon wafer, and a phosphorus-heavily doped region (n + +) is formed in the SE region.
In the present embodiment, the phosphorus diffusion is performed under the conventional phosphorus thermal diffusion process conditions, so as to form a low-damage phosphorus-doped region (n + +) in the region printed with the phosphorus-containing nano-silicon paste, i.e., to form an SE structure, and the SE structure is a light-doped region (n +) opposite to the light-receiving portion (i.e., between the electrode and the electrode), which helps to ensure that the silver electrode on the front side of the battery and the silicon substrate are in good contact under the low-temperature sintering condition.
In this embodiment, the Rs (i.e., surface resistance) of the heavily doped region is preferably controlled to be 55-60ohm/sq.
And S3, removing the phosphorosilicate glass, etching the back, depositing an antireflection film on the front side of the silicon wafer, and depositing a passivation film on the back side of the silicon wafer.
In this embodiment, the phosphorosilicate glass is removed and the back etching is performed according to a method in a normal PERC process, which is not described herein again. Al is preferably used for both the antireflective film and the passivation film 2 O 3 Or SiN x The material is deposited.
And S4, printing high-concentration boron nano silicon slurry on the passivation film on the back of the silicon wafer, and scanning by using laser to realize the localized boron doping so as to form a boron heavily doped region (p + +).
In consideration of the improvement effect on the cell efficiency due to the partial doping of boron in the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the improvement effect is closely related to the total amount and the surface concentration of boron entering the silicon wafer through the opening of the passivation film under the printed high-concentration boron nano-silicon paste pattern. In the high-concentration boron nano-silica slurry (organic solvent dispersion with solid content including silicon-boron composite nanoparticles being 5-10%, hereinafter referred to as borosilicate-containing slurry) in the embodiment, the boron-silicon molar ratio should be not less than 0.2, preferably 0.2-2.5. Because the thickness of the boron-containing silicon paste layer after the printed boron-containing silicon paste is dried under certain conditions (preferably, the drying temperature is 200 ℃, and the drying time is 10 min) directly influences the total amount of boron entering the silicon wafer through the opening of the passivation film, in order to avoid the damage of laser to the passivation film and the silicon wafer except the opening of the passivation film, the wavelength of the laser should be under the premise of meeting the opening and doping of the passivation film, and the boron-containing silicon paste can absorb the boron-containing silicon paste, namely: the irradiation energy of the laser ensures that the passive film can be easily opened after the absorption of the boron-containing silicon slurry layer is passed through, and the boron amount required for effectively improving the battery efficiency is realized (practice proves that the boron doping amount is 10^ b 21 atoms/cm 3 In the above process, the cell efficiency can be effectively improved, and the improvement effect of the cell efficiency can be more than 0.4% by doping the silicon wafer with the doping material. In this embodiment, the laser wavelength is preferably 532nm to 1040nm, so as to avoid a problem that the laser energy density reaching the surface of the passivation film is too low to achieve a sufficient doping amount, and a problem that the laser energy is too high to possibly cause a reduction in battery efficiency caused by damage to the surrounding passivation film or the silicon wafer. Theoretically, the higher the boron content in the boron-containing silicon paste, the smaller the film thickness after drying, the more likely the desired boron doping amount can be achieved with the smaller laser energy density, and in practice, it is found that it is difficult to uniformly control the thickness of the boron-containing silicon paste after drying to be less than 1 μm by using the screen printing technique, and therefore, in this embodiment, the dry film thickness of the printed boron-containing silicon paste is preferably 1.5-2.5 μm. In addition, the thinner dry film thickness is also beneficial to meeting the mass production condition.
In addition, considering the problems of damage caused by direct irradiation of laser on the silicon wafer and the precision of laser alignment, the printing pattern of the high-concentration boron nano-silicon slurry is larger than the contact area of the preset back aluminum and the silicon wafer, that is, the printing area of the high-concentration boron nano-silicon slurry should be larger than the set area of localized boron doping, such as: good contact between the aluminum backing and the silicon wafer requires a line width of 40um, and the line width of the printing of the borosilicate containing paste should be above 80 um.
And S5, printing aluminum paste on the back surface of the silicon wafer, and printing silver paste on the SE structure on the front surface of the silicon wafer.
In this embodiment, printing the aluminum paste on the back surface of the silicon wafer refers to: and (3) printing the aluminum paste capable of being sintered at low temperature (such as the special aluminum paste A for the PERC battery) on the whole (single-sided battery) or part (double-sided battery) of the printing area capable of covering the boron-containing silicon paste, and printing the silver paste on the front side by adopting the special silver paste B for the PERC battery (obtaining a silver electrode after sintering).
And S6, sintering to form the battery.
Specifically, on the premise of ensuring that good contact between the front silver electrode and the silicon wafer is achieved, the front silver and the back aluminum are subjected to co-sintering at the lowest temperature, good contact between the front silver electrode and the silicon wafer and good contact between the back aluminum paste layer and the silicon wafer are formed through one-step sintering, and finally the high-efficiency battery with the SE-PERL structure is formed, as shown in FIG. 2. In the embodiment, the sintering temperature is 570-780 ℃ which is lower than the sintering temperature (about 850 ℃) of the conventional RERC process, and low-temperature sintering is realized.
The embodiment also discloses a high-efficiency battery based on the high-concentration boron-containing nano silicon slurry prepared by the method, which comprises a silver electrode 1, an anti-reflection film 2, a silicon wafer 5, an aluminum slurry layer 7 and a passivation film 8, as shown in fig. 2. Wherein:
a silicon wafer 5, preferably a P-type monocrystalline silicon wafer is used as a substrate;
a phosphorus heavily-doped region 4 (namely an SE structure) and a lightly-doped region 3 are arranged on the front surface of the silicon wafer 5, an anti-reflection film 2 is arranged outside the lightly-doped region 3, the phosphorus heavily-doped region 4 penetrates through the anti-reflection film 2 to form good contact with the silicon wafer, and a silver electrode 1 (obtained by sintering silver paste) is arranged in the phosphorus heavily-doped region 4;
