Description
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic power generation product preparation, and particularly relates to a back doping process and application of a P-type silicon wafer.
Background
The conventional single crystal PERC Cell (Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell, PERC Cell for short) is doped with phosphorus on the front side of a silicon wafer to form a PN junction, and the Rear side of the silicon wafer is sintered after an aluminum grid line is printed to realize doping. Because the sintering adopts a rapid sintering process, the doping concentration is low, which is not beneficial to the reduction of series resistance and causes the conversion efficiency of the cell to be low.
The current efficiency improving means is difficult to break through the technical bottleneck, and the improvement of the battery conversion efficiency is difficult to realize.
Disclosure of Invention
The following is a summary of the subject matter described in detail herein. This summary is not intended to limit the scope of the claims.
The embodiment of the invention provides a back doping process and application of a P-type silicon wafer (hereinafter also referred to as a silicon wafer), wherein impurity distribution with light doping on the surface and heavy doping on the local part is formed on the back of the P-type silicon wafer, so that the conversion efficiency is improved.
In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a back doping process for a P-type silicon wafer, including:
the front surfaces of the P-type silicon wafers face to face and are close together, and boron diffusion is carried out on the back surfaces of the P-type silicon wafers under the condition that the pressure is 50mTorr-300 mTorr;
and carrying out first laser doping on the back surface after the boron diffusion, and then carrying out first cleaning.
The boron is diffused under the low pressure condition of 50mTorr-300mTorr, the good boron doping can be realized through the one-time source passing process, and the sheet resistance of the doped silicon wafer is reduced. And further, the silicon substrate is instantaneously melted by means of laser energy, boron atoms are pushed to the surface of the silicon wafer to form local heavy doping, namely a boron heavy doping P + + region, and the purpose of improving the conversion efficiency of the PERC cell is achieved.
The first cleaning is used for removing Boron Silicon Glass (BSG) and a peripheral diffusion layer formed by a Boron diffusion process. The first cleaning may use an acid solution such as a mixed solution of hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid, or the like, or an alkali solution such as a sodium hydroxide solution or a potassium hydroxide solution as the etchant.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the etchant for the first cleaning is a mixture of 45-55% by mass of HF, 40-55% by mass of HCl and water in a volume ratio of 1 (1-2) to (2-4).
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the laser power of the first laser doping is 25W-30W, the spot size can be controlled within 80 μm-100 μm, and the depth can be controlled within 0.1 μm-0.3 μm, so as to prevent the silicon wafer from being broken by the stress.
According to some embodiments of the invention, before bringing the front surfaces of the P-type silicon wafers face towards each other, preparing a mask on the front surface of the P-type silicon wafer is further included.
The mask is used for protecting the front side of the P-type silicon wafer, so that boron atoms are prevented from entering the front side of the silicon wafer to be doped due to diffraction in a subsequent boron diffusion process, and the mask can play a role in protecting the silicon wafer and prevent the silicon wafer from being scratched on the surface when the silicon wafer is leaned together.
Before boron diffusion is carried out, if phosphorus doping is carried out on the front surface of the silicon wafer, the mask can protect PN junctions on the surface of the silicon wafer from being damaged in subsequent links such as boron diffusion, and meanwhile, boron atoms are prevented from diffusing into the silicon wafer on the front surface in the boron diffusion process to form PN junctions with phosphorus, so that short circuit is caused.
The mask can be formed by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD). The mask may be made of SixOy、SixNyEtc., the thickness may be 10-20 nm.
According to some embodiments of the invention, before the preparing the mask on the front side of the P-type silicon wafer, the texturing, front side phosphorus diffusion and second cleaning are sequentially performed on the P-type silicon wafer.
The texturing is mainly used for forming a textured surface on the surface of the silicon wafer and improving the effect of filling light. The etching may use an acid solution or an alkali solution as an etchant. Further, a texturing additive, such as sodium silicate and isopropyl alcohol, may be added to the above-mentioned etchant, thereby controlling the reaction rate and obtaining a better texturing state.
The front side phosphorus diffusion is used for forming an N-type diffusion layer on the front side of the silicon wafer, and phosphorus oxychloride (POCl) can be adopted3) Is a phosphorus source.
The above-described texturing, front side phosphorus diffusion, is well known in the art and will not be described in detail.
And a second cleaning step for removing a phosphosilicate Glass (PSG) and a peripheral diffusion layer formed by the phosphorus diffusion process.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the etchant of the second cleaning employs HF at a mass concentration of 45-55%, HNO at a mass concentration of 45-60%3And water is mixed according to the volume ratio of (1-2) to (2-3) to (10-12).
According to some embodiments of the present invention, before the second cleaning, the method further includes performing second laser doping on the diffusion layer obtained by the front-side phosphorus diffusion, where the second laser doping is used to push phosphorus atoms to the surface of the silicon wafer to form local heavy doping, that is, to form a phosphorus heavy doping N + + region.
The laser power of the second laser doping can be 20W-30W, the spot size can be controlled to be 100 μm-130 μm, and the depth can be controlled to be 0.1 μm-0.4 μm.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the boron-diffused boron source is a commonly used liquid boron source, exemplified by boron tribromide, trimethyl borate, triethyl borate, and the like. Further, the boron source of the boron diffusion is boron tribromide.
According to some embodiments of the invention, in the boron diffusion, the boron source is sourced through a shower. Compared with the existing source passing mode through a furnace opening, the liquid boron source is output in a spraying and diffusing mode, so that the gasified boron source molecules are uniformly distributed in a spraying pipe and a diffusion furnace, the boron diffusion uniformity is improved, and the sheet resistance is further reduced. Therefore, the number of the spray holes of the spray pipe can be increased, and the spray holes are distributed on the spray pipe at intervals as uniformly as possible.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the flux temperature of the boron diffusion is 900 ℃ to 980 ℃.
The source connection time can be 300s-900s, and the quality of the PN junction can be improved by regulating the source connection time.
The flux source small nitrogen flow rate can be 800sccm-1100 sccm.
The flux source large nitrogen flow rate can be 800sccm-1500 sccm.
The flux oxygen flow rate can be 100sccm to 400 sccm.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the boron diffusion further comprises a high temperature drive treatment after the source introduction, wherein the high temperature drive treatment is performed under the condition of introducing nitrogen, the temperature is 980-1000 ℃, and the time is 300-520 s.
Introducing nitrogen to improve the furnace tube gas atmosphere in the high-temperature propulsion process, wherein the nitrogen introducing flow in the nitrogen introducing process is as follows: the flow rate of the large nitrogen is 900-1300 sccm, and the flow rate of the small nitrogen is 300-700 sccm.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the P-type silicon wafer is a P-type monocrystalline silicon wafer or a P-type polycrystalline silicon wafer.
In a second aspect, the embodiment of the present invention provides an application of the above-mentioned back doping process for a P-type silicon wafer in the preparation of a PERC cell. And under the condition that the P-type silicon wafer is a P-type monocrystalline silicon wafer, the PERC cell is a monocrystalline PERC cell.
The PERC cell may be a single-sided PERC cell or a double-sided PERC cell.
According to the scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the PN junction is formed by carrying out low-pressure boron diffusion on the back surface of the P-type silicon wafer within a specific pressure range, so that the diffusion sheet resistance can be reduced. Further matching with the source-through mode of the spray pipe, the diffusion sheet resistance can be between 50 and 70 omega, and in the conventional phosphorus source diffusion process, the diffusion sheet resistance is generally between 120 and 130 omega.
And further, the laser energy is utilized to push the boron atoms of the boron diffusion layer to the surface of the silicon wafer to form a local heavily doped P + + region to plump PN junctions inside the cell, so that the conversion efficiency of the cell can be improved by 0.05%, and the technical bottleneck that the conversion efficiency is difficult to further improve by the existing silicon wafer doping technology is broken through.
Compared with the existing back doping mode of only performing rapid sintering, the silicon wafer obtained by the doping mode can form metal contact with an aluminum back field on the back surface, and can effectively reduce series resistance.
