Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
Referring to fig. 1, a PERC cell 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a battery substrate 11, a silicon oxide layer 12(SiOx), a first silicon nitride layer 13(SiNx), a second silicon nitride layer 14(SiNx), and a third silicon nitride layer 15 (SiNx).
In the PERC cell 10 of the embodiment of the present application, since the silicon oxide layer 12 and the three silicon nitride layers are disposed on the cell substrate 11, it is not necessary to use TMA to fabricate an aluminum oxide layer, and the PERC cell 10 can be passivated while reducing the cost and improving the safety and stability of the process.
Alternatively, the cell substrate 11 may include a silicon substrate, and the silicon oxide layer 12, the first silicon nitride layer 13, the second silicon nitride layer 14, and the third silicon nitride layer 15 are sequentially stacked on one side of the silicon substrate. The cell substrate 11 may further include a front film layer and a front electrode disposed on the other side of the silicon substrate. The front film layer can comprise a diffusion layer and an antireflection layer.
Alternatively, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer 12 is in the range of 20nm to 60 nm. Examples thereof include 20nm, 22nm, 25nm, 28nm, 30nm, 35nm, 40nm, 48nm, 50nm, 57nm and 60 nm. Therefore, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer 12 is in a proper range, so that the passivation effect of the silicon oxide layer 12 is good, the recombination of current carriers on the surface can be effectively prevented, the conversion efficiency of the PERC battery 10 is improved, the PID resistance of the PERC battery 10 is improved, and the service life is prolonged.
Preferably, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer 12 ranges from 30nm to 50 nm. For example, 30nm, 32nm, 35nm, 38nm, 40nm, 48nm, 50 nm. In this way, the passivation effect of the silicon oxide layer 12 can be further improved.
Alternatively, the refractive index of the silicon oxide layer 12 ranges from 1.4 to 1.7. For example 1.4, 1.41, 1.45, 1.48, 1.5, 1.55, 1.6, 1.69, 1.7. In this manner, the silicon oxide layer 12 is made to normally perform the functions of passivation and PID resistance.
Optionally, the thickness of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is greater than the thickness of said second silicon nitride layer 14, and the thickness of the third silicon nitride layer 15 is greater than the thickness of the second silicon nitride layer 14. Thus, a thickness gradient can be formed, resulting in a matting effect.
Alternatively, the refractive indices of the first silicon nitride layer 13, the second silicon nitride layer 14, and the third silicon nitride layer 15 are decreased progressively. In this way, a refractive index gradient can be formed, producing a matting effect.
Optionally, the thickness of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is in the range of 15nm-25 nm. For example, 15nm, 16nm, 18nm, 20nm, 22nm, and 25 nm. In this manner, the thickness of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is made to be in a suitable range, so that the silicon oxide layer 12 can be protected, and recombination centers can be reduced.
Preferably, the thickness of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is in the range of 19nm to 21 nm. For example, 19nm, 20nm and 21 nm. In this way, recombination centers can be further reduced.
Optionally, the refractive index of the first silicon nitride layer 13 ranges from 2.16 to 2.22. For example 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 2.22. Thus, the refractive index of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is in a higher range, so that a denser protective layer can be provided for the silicon oxide layer 12, the silicon oxide layer 12 is protected from erosion, and a certain H passivation effect is provided.
Preferably, the refractive index of the first silicon nitride layer 13 ranges from 2.18 to 2.20. For example 2.18, 2.185, 2.188, 2.19, 2.193, 2.197, 2.20. In this way, the protective and passivating effect of the first silicon nitride layer 13 is better.
Alternatively, the second silicon nitride layer 14 has a thickness in the range of 10nm to 20 nm. For example, 10nm, 11nm, 13nm, 15nm, 18nm, and 20 nm. Thus, the second silicon nitride layer 14 is thin, which provides a light extinction effect.
Preferably, the thickness of the second silicon nitride layer 14 ranges from 13nm to 17 nm. For example, 13nm, 14nm, 15nm, 16nm, 17 nm. In this way, the matting effect of the second silicon nitride layer 14 is made better.
Alternatively, the refractive index of the second silicon nitride layer 14 ranges from 2.03 to 2.08. For example, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08. In this way, the refractive index of the second silicon nitride layer 14 is lower than that of the first silicon nitride layer 13, and gradient refractive index change is formed, so that gradient extinction is possible, and photoelectric conversion efficiency is improved.
Preferably, the refractive index of the second silicon nitride layer 14 ranges from 2.04 to 2.06. For example, 2.04, 2.043, 2.048, 2.05, 2.055, 2.06. Thus, the matting effect can be further improved.

Thus, the thickness of the third silicon nitride layer 15 is thick, the overall silicon content of the back film layer can be reduced, the reaction between the back aluminum paste and the back film layer is reduced when the PERC battery 10 is subjected to the sintering process, the damage of the aluminum paste to the back passivation film is weakened, and the passivation effect is improved.

Preferably, the refractive index of the third silicon nitride layer 15 ranges from 2.02 to 2.03. For example, 2.02, 2.021, 2.025, 2.028, 2.03. Thus, the matting effect is further improved.
Referring to fig. 2, a method for manufacturing a PERC battery 10 according to an embodiment of the present application includes:
step S11: depositing a silicon oxide layer 12 on the cell substrate 11;
step S12: depositing a first silicon nitride layer 13 on the silicon oxide layer 12;
step S13: depositing a second silicon nitride layer 14 on the first silicon nitride layer 13;
step S14: a third silicon nitride layer 15 is deposited on the second silicon nitride layer 14.
In the method for manufacturing the PERC cell 10 according to the embodiment of the present application, since the silicon oxide layer 12 and the three silicon nitride layers are provided on the cell substrate 11, it is not necessary to use TMA to manufacture an aluminum oxide layer, and the cost can be reduced and the safety and stability of the process can be improved while passivating the PERC cell 10.
Alternatively, in step S11, the silicon substrate may be subjected to texturing, diffusion, SE laser, etching, thereby producing the cell substrate 11 on which the passivation film is to be deposited.
Alternatively, the battery substrate 11 may be subjected to a polishing process. Therefore, the surface of the battery substrate 11 is relatively flat, and a passivation film layer is convenient to prepare on a silicon substrate subsequently. Further, the battery substrate 11 may be acid-polished or alkali-polished.
Referring to fig. 3, optionally, step S11 includes:
step S111: utilization of Silane (SiH) by PECVD method4) And laughing gas (N)2O) depositing a silicon oxide layer 12 on the cell substrate 11;
step S12 includes:
step S121: ammonia (NH) gas is utilized by PECVD method3) And Silane (SiH)4) Depositing a first silicon nitride layer 13 on the silicon oxide layer 12;
step S13 includes:
step S131: ammonia (NH) gas is utilized by PECVD method3) And Silane (SiH)4) Depositing a second silicon nitride layer 14 on the first silicon nitride layer 13;
step S14 includes:
step S141: ammonia (NH) gas is utilized by PECVD method3) And Silane (SiH)4) A third silicon nitride layer 15 is deposited on the second silicon nitride layer 14.
Thus, the silicon oxide layer 12, the first silicon nitride layer 13, the second silicon nitride layer 14 and the third silicon nitride layer 15 are sequentially deposited by a Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) method, so that the Deposition speed is high, the uniformity of film formation is good, and the production efficiency and quality of the PERC cell 10 are improved.
It is understood that if the PECVD method is used and laughing gas and ammonia gas are used as reaction sources to deposit the silicon oxide layer without using silane, the silicon source (Si) in the silicon oxide layer comes from the silicon substrate. The silicon oxide layer thus deposited is greatly affected by the surface state of the silicon substrate, and neither uniformity nor thickness can be effectively controlled. If a thermal oxidation method is used to grow a silicon oxide layer on the surface of a silicon substrate, the silicon substrate needs to be placed in an oxygen or ozone environment to grow silicon oxide at 650 ℃, and the thickness of the silicon oxide layer is difficult to reach the target thickness due to the limitation of a silicon source.
In this embodiment, the target film thickness can be easily obtained by depositing the silicon oxide layer 12 by PECVD using laughing gas and silane as the reaction source. Meanwhile, the generation rate of the silicon oxide layer 12 is not limited by a silicon source, the process control difficulty is low, and the effect is good.
It can be understood that due to the characteristic of layer-by-layer growth of the aluminum oxide layer, the reaction rate of the atomic layer vapor deposition (ALD) method for manufacturing the aluminum oxide layer is relatively slow, and the aluminum oxide layer can obtain excellent passivation performance after annealing, which has a certain influence on productivity. The PECVD method has a fast deposition rate, but the uniformity of the deposited aluminum oxide layer is poor, which is likely to result in poor yield. Therefore, if the aluminum oxide layer is used as the passivation layer, the production efficiency and yield are poor.
In the embodiment, the silicon oxide layer 12 is used for passivation, so that the passivation effect consistent with that of the aluminum oxide layer is realized, the production cost of the PERC battery 10 can be reduced, the process safety and stability are improved, the productivity of the back surface coating process can be improved, and the yield of mass production is ensured.
Alternatively, in step S111, the initial plating temperature is in the range of 355 ℃ to 365 ℃.

Thus, the initial coating temperature of the silicon oxide layer 12 is strictly controlled, which is obviously different from the temperature required by the silicon oxide growing in the thermal oxygen or ozone environment in the related art, so that the silicon oxide is deposited at low temperature during the initial coating, a compact silicon oxide layer 12 can be formed, the H passivation capability of the silicon oxide layer 12 is increased, and a better chemical passivation effect is obtained.
Preferably, in step S111, the initial plating temperature is 360 ℃. Thus, the silicon oxide layer 12 has the strongest H passivation capability and the best chemical passivation effect.
Alternatively, in step S121, in step S131, in step S141, the initial plating temperature is in the range of 400 ℃ to 440 ℃. For example, 400 ℃, 402 ℃, 410 ℃, 415 ℃, 420 ℃, 423 ℃, 430 ℃, 437 ℃, 440 ℃. Thus, a dense silicon nitride layer can be formed, and the matting effect and the passivation effect of the silicon nitride layer are increased.
Preferably, in step S121, in step S131, in step S141, the initial plating temperature is 420 ℃. Thus, the extinction effect and passivation effect of the silicon nitride layer are best.
