According to the method, the semiconductor substrate is polished by the polishing treatment agent comprising the alkali solution, the surfactant and the defoaming agent, so that the surface area of the polarized light structure after polishing treatment is reduced, and the projection area of the polarized light structure on the surface of the semiconductor substrate is reduced.
Hereinafter, a process for manufacturing a solar cell according to the present application will be described in detail and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, wherein the embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Step 100, providing a semiconductor substrate;
in some embodiments, the front surface of the semiconductor substrate is the surface facing the sun (i.e., the light-receiving surface) and the back surface of the semiconductor substrate is the surface facing away from the sun (i.e., the backlight surface).
In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate is a silicon substrate, which may be a polycrystalline silicon substrate, a monocrystalline silicon substrate, or a quasi-monocrystalline silicon substrate.
In some embodiments, the semiconductor substrate may be an N-type substrate, and the solar cell fabricated therefrom is a TOPcon cell.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the semiconductor substrate 1 is 60 μm to 240 μm, and may be 60 μm, 80 μm, 90 μm, 100 μm, 120 μm, 150 μm, 200 μm, 240 μm, or the like, which is not limited herein.
And 200, performing texturing treatment on the semiconductor substrate to form a pre-polarization structure.
In some embodiments, the texturing process may be performed by etching, and the etching process may be chemical etching, laser etching, mechanical method, plasma etching, and the like, which are not limited herein. Illustratively, when the semiconductor substrate is a single crystal silicon substrate, texturing may be performed using an alkaline solution such as a potassium hydroxide solution; when the semiconductor substrate is a polysilicon substrate, texturing may be performed using an acidic solution such as a hydrofluoric acid solution. In addition, a small amount of a texturing additive may be added to the acidic solution or the alkaline solution.
In the embodiment of the application, the surface of the silicon substrate has a pre-polarization structure through texturing, so that a light trapping effect is generated, the absorption quantity of the solar cell to light is increased, and the conversion efficiency of the solar cell is improved.
In some embodiments, the etching depth of one side of the semiconductor substrate is 3 μm to 6 μm, and specifically, the etching depth of one side may be 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm or 6 μm, but is not limited to the recited values, and other values not recited in the range of the values are also applicable.
In some embodiments, an emitter may be formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate by using any one or more of high-temperature diffusion, slurry doping, or ion implantation before etching.
And 300, performing boron diffusion on the front surface of the textured semiconductor substrate to form a boron diffusion layer, and performing primary acid washing, water washing and primary drying treatment on the boron diffusion layer.
In some embodiments, a boron diffusion layer may be formed on a surface of a semiconductor substrate by any one or more of high temperature diffusion, slurry doping, or ion implantation.
In a specific embodiment, the boron diffusion process is to form a boron diffusion layer by diffusing boron atoms through a boron source. The boron source may be, for example, a boron tribromide diffusion process, whereby the microcrystalline silicon phase of the crystalline silicon is converted to the polycrystalline silicon phase. Because the surface of the semiconductor substrate has high-concentration boron, a borosilicate glass layer (BSG) is usually formed, the borosilicate glass layer has a metal gettering effect and can influence the normal operation of a solar cell, the borosilicate glass layer (BSG) needs to be removed by pickling the boron diffusion layer once, pickling solution remained on the surface of the silicon wafer is removed by washing with water, and the silicon wafer is dried once for subsequent treatment.
In some embodiments, the solution for the primary acid washing includes at least one of hydrofluoric acid, hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the boron diffusion layer before the primary acid cleaning is 60nm to 120nm, and specifically, may be 60nm, 70nm, 80nm, 90nm, 100nm, 110nm, or 120nm, and the like, which is not limited herein. In some embodiments, the thickness of the boron diffusion layer after the primary acid washing is 40nm to 90nm, and specifically, may be 40nm, 50nm, 60nm, 70nm, 80nm, or 90nm, and the like, which is not limited herein.
Compared with the traditional process (the thickness of the boron diffusion layer is thinner), the thickness of the boron diffusion layer formed by boron diffusion is thicker and can reach 60 nm-120 nm, the diffusion layer with the thickness of 40 nm-90 nm is remained on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate after the semiconductor substrate is subjected to primary acid washing, the effect of protecting the semiconductor substrate can be achieved, and the influence of the subsequent back polishing process on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate is avoided.
Optionally, before the texturing process, a step of cleaning the semiconductor substrate may be further included to remove metal and organic contaminants on the surface.
Step 400, carrying out water washing, alkali polishing, water washing, post-cleaning, secondary acid washing, water washing, slow extraction and secondary drying treatment on the back of the semiconductor substrate to convert the pre-polarization structure into a polarization structure, wherein a polishing treatment agent for alkali polishing comprises an alkali solution, a surfactant and a defoaming agent, and the ratio of the surface area of the semiconductor substrate to the projection area of the polarization structure on the surface of the semiconductor substrate is (1.0-1.4): 1.
the appearance of the semiconductor substrate (silicon wafer) processed in step 400 is shown in fig. 2, and as can be seen in fig. 2: the appearance of the silicon wafer is normal, and the silicon wafer is in a normal range after being detected by electroluminescent defects (component EL).
In some embodiments, the polishing treatment agent comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 90 to 95 percent of alkali solution, 0.5 to 1 percent of surfactant, 0.3 to 0.5 percent of sodium citrate, 0.2 to 0.5 percent of sodium benzoate and 0.2 to 3 percent of defoaming agent.
In some embodiments, the alkaline solution comprises at least one of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, and the semiconductor substrate is polished by the alkaline solution, so that nitrogen-containing polluted wastewater is not generated in a treatment link, the cost is reduced, and the environmental pollution is reduced.
In some embodiments, the surfactant comprises at least one of a fluorosurfactant and a polyether surfactant. The fluorine-containing surfactant can be, for example, a Fluorine Surfactant (FSA) which is a surfactant with fluorine carbon chains as nonpolar groups, i.e. hydrogen atoms on the hydrocarbon chains are partially or completely replaced by fluorine atoms, the FSA has high surface activity, high heat resistance stability and high chemical stability, and the lowest surface tension of the FSA can reach 20Mn/m, thereby being beneficial to the surface treatment of the semiconductor substrate by an alkali solution.
