Description

Electrode silver paste of nano silver-silicon composite material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to crystalline silicon solar cell electrode silver paste and a preparation method thereof, in particular to nano silver-silicon composite material electrode silver paste and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Due to the gradual depletion of fossil energy and the problem of environmental pollution generated in the use process, the development and utilization of renewable energy sources are increased in all countries. The solar energy resource is rich and pollution-free, and the development potential is huge. The traditional terminal conductive paste (also called electronic paste) is an important component of electronic components and microelectronic products, and is widely applied to the fields of metal electrodes, wiring, packaging, connection and the like in the microelectronic industry. The noble metal materials such as gold, silver, palladium and the like are generally used as the first choice of the conductive paste due to the advantages of strong stability, high precision, good reliability, long service life and the like. However, due to the rising high price of noble metals, cost reduction is also the main direction of research. The solar cell uses semiconductor materials as media to realize direct conversion of light energy and electric energy. The crystalline silicon solar cell has the characteristics of mature process, high conversion efficiency, low cost and the like, is the most widely applied solar cell at present, and occupies 90% of market share. The electrode silver paste serves as a material for metallization of the crystalline silicon solar cell, plays a crucial role in photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell, and accounts for a large proportion of the production cost of the cell. China is the largest producing country of solar cell modules in the world, and the production cost of the domestic cell module is greatly raised by relying on imported metalized materials for a long time, so that the novel solar electrode silver paste is developed, the production cost of the silver paste is reduced, the foreign technical monopoly is broken, and the solar cell module has great strategic significance.
At present, electrode silver paste in the prior art mainly consists of three parts: the conductive item is mainly silver micro powder with the best conductive performance, the organic phase is an organic carrier suitable for a screen printing technology, and the organic carrier mainly comprises an organic solvent, a plasticizer, a thixotropic agent, a leveling agent, a surfactant and the like, so that the slurry has rheological properties such as viscosity, thixotropy and the like suitable for screen printing; the inorganic terms are mainly low glass powder and metal oxides, and play roles in burning through the anti-reflection layer and bonding. Particularly, for the front silver paste of the crystalline silicon solar cell, the front silver paste is positioned on the light receiving surface, so that the height-width ratio of the front silver paste has higher requirements compared with the height-width ratio of the back silver paste, and the electrode silver paste capable of corroding the silicon nitride layer and the silicon substrate to form good ohmic contact and bonding strength is selected, thereby being more beneficial to the operation of a printing process. However, while meeting these requirements, the silver powder is expensive, the addition amount of the silver powder seriously affects the conductivity and the photoelectric conversion rate of the silver paste on the front surface of the whole crystalline silicon solar cell, and once the usage amount of the silver powder is reduced, the performance index required by the industry cannot be ensured, so the cost problem is always a main factor for hindering the development of the crystalline silicon solar cell.

Meanwhile, the height-to-width ratio of the sintered grid line film is more than 0.380, the viscosity is 220 +/-20 and can reach 207kcps (25 ℃), the tensile strength is more than 7N and is more than 3N, the photoelectric conversion rate can reach more than 17.8 percent, the high height-to-width ratio and the photoelectric conversion efficiency are good, and the tensile stress between the silicon substrate and the silver layer is obviously improved by the nano silver silicon powder added in the raw materials, so that the nano silver silicon composite electrode silver paste has strong bonding strength and is more favorable for a screen printing process.
