Description

Solar cell preparation system and preparation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of solar cells, and relates to a solar cell preparation system and a preparation method.
Background
Among the numerous renewable energy technologies, photovoltaic power generation is undoubtedly one of the most promising possibilities. In addition, the development of the crystalline silicon solar cell is fastest in recent years, and the degree of resource investment or industrialization of research and development is much higher than that of other types of photovoltaic cells. It is obvious that crystalline silicon solar cells have been the mainstream technology in photovoltaic power generation technology.
A photovoltaic cell is a device that converts light energy into electrical energy. The structure of the photovoltaic cell takes silicon material as a substrate, wherein one side of the silicon material is a P-type semiconductor, and the other side of the silicon material is an N-type semiconductor, and a semiconductor PN junction is formed at the junction of the two semiconductors due to the diffusion of electrons and holes. When sunlight irradiates a photovoltaic cell, electron-hole pairs are generated in the cell. Due to the action of the semiconductor PN junction, the electron-hole pairs are separated. Electrons flow to the N-type semiconductor region and holes move in the opposite direction to the P-type semiconductor region. The N area is negatively charged, the P area is positively charged, a potential difference is formed between the two areas, and current is generated after the circuit is switched on.
Since the semiconductor is made of silicon material as a substrate, it is not possible to directly conduct current out of the semiconductor by means of contact wires, and it is necessary to perform a Metallization (Metallization) process with metal electrodes at two ends of the P-type semiconductor and the N-type semiconductor individually to reduce the resistance, so that the current generated after illumination enters the electronic device through the metal wires. The metallization process includes coating or printing metal slurry at corresponding positions according to requirements, and sintering the silicon material and the metal at a high temperature.
In the production process of crystalline silicon solar cells, silver paste is usually selected as a material for metallization with silicon materials. Most manufacturers currently use screen printing as a means of applying silver paste to silicon.
The current mainstream technology for coating the solar conductive paste is screen printing, and the screen printing has the great characteristic of high speed. More than 2500 times per hour can be printed. The paste also allows for good aspect ratios on the cell silicon wafer after printing. However, screen printing also has some disadvantages, such as higher screen price. In recent years, the requirements for the line width and the aspect ratio of the sub-grid become more and more stringent, so some screen manufacturers develop a screen without mesh junction, and although the line type and the line width have good effects, the price is much higher than that of the conventional screen. After the screen printing plate is used for a period of time, the tension can be gradually reduced, so that the width of the grid line is widened, the height-width ratio is reduced, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is reduced. Therefore, after a period of use, the screen must be replaced, which becomes a cost that must be paid for, as do other consumables used with screen printing.
In recent years, solar cell manufacturers have spread large-sized silicon wafers in order to reduce processing costs. The photovoltaic silicon wafer size directly affects the downstream cell and module size. There are currently 5 predominant sizes of photovoltaic silicon wafers, 156.75mm, 158.75mm, 166mm, 182mm, 210mm, respectively. The large-size silicon wafer enlarges the size of the assembly by increasing the area of the silicon wafer, so that the processing cost of each link is reduced. However, pushing large-sized silicon wafers is also prone to different difficulties, for example, equipment tables need to be updated, and devices such as carriers, positioning devices and the like of the tables need to be updated and replaced from the beginning of wafer manufacturing. Especially, the coating of the slurry is a great test. The large-size silicon wafer has higher requirements on the coating property of the slurry. The screen printed pattern becomes larger, and the size of the screen frame is not enlarged. During screen printing, the tension applied to the middle area and the edge of the pattern during printing is different, so that the situation of grid breaking or line expansion is easily caused as a result of printing. It is difficult to achieve a uniform line pattern between the center and the edge.
Therefore, there is a need in the art for a system and method for manufacturing solar cells that is relatively low cost and suitable for use with substrates of different sizes.

In the invention, the coating can be carried out in a mode that the extrusion injection system moves and the carrier is fixed, or the extrusion injection system is fixed and the carrier moves, or the extrusion injection system and the carrier move simultaneously. Before formal coating, the extrusion device can be started to extrude a small amount of conductive paste to discharge redundant air in the spray head, and the residual conductive paste at the outlet of the spray nozzle is wiped to avoid the occurrence of broken lines or irregular splashing.
The coating may be performed using an injection device that has been previously charged with the conductive paste, or the charging of the conductive paste may be performed before the coating. When the conductive paste is filled, the conductive paste is usually defoamed, for example, the conductive paste is put into a defoaming machine, stirred and defoamed, and bubbles in the paste are removed. The conductive paste is then carefully filled, using auxiliary equipment, into, for example, an injection device, which is then assembled, for example, into an extrusion injection system, and connected to a spray head.
In some embodiments, the coating system of the present invention comprises a control system, and the operation of the extrusion injection system and the support and movement system can be controlled by the control system, for example, when coating is started, the control system can set the operation program of the support and movement system, thereby controlling the initial position of the extrusion injection system, the extrusion progress and extrusion speed, and controlling the initial position of the carrier, and controlling the movement route and movement rate of the extrusion injection system, and the carrier is fixed, or controlling the movement route and movement rate of the carrier, and the extrusion injection system is fixed, or controlling the movement route and movement rate of both the extrusion injection system and the carrier.
