Definitions
- the invention relates to a solar cell, in particular for interconnection in a solar cell module according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Solar cells typically consist of a semiconductor structure having a base and an emitter region.
- light is typically coupled via the front side of the solar cell, so that after absorption of the injected light in the solar cell, a generation of electron-hole pairs takes place.
- a pn junction forms, at which the generated pairs of charge carriers are separated.
- a solar cell comprises a metallic emitter and a metallic base contact, which are each connected in an electrically conductive manner to the emitter or to the base. Via these metallic contacts, the charge carriers separated at the pn junction can be dissipated and thus supplied to an external circuit or an adjacent solar cell when the module is connected to a module.
- Solar cells in which the metallic emitter and base contact are arranged on a contacting side have the advantage that they can be contacted on one side, that is, they can be connected by interconnecting only one side of the solar cell with other solar cells in a module or with a external circuit can be connected.
- Such unilaterally contactable solar cells typically have comb-like interdigitated metallization structures on the rear side, a first comb-like metallization structure being electrically conductively connected to the emitter region and the second metallization structure intermeshing in the first metallization structure to the base.
- the positive as well as the negative charge carriers are guided laterally via the comb-like metallization structures, that is to say parallel to the contacting side of the solar cell, to one or more collection points of the metallization structures and tapped there by means of cell connectors or other types of contacting.
- the present invention has the object to provide a one-side contactable solar cell and a corresponding solar cell module, the optimization potential with respect to the efficiency of the solar cell compared to the previously known solar cell structures should be increased and reduces the probability of failure of the solar cell and in particular of the solar cell module due to external influences shall be.
- Embodiments of the solar cell module can be found in claims 20 to 24.
- the solar cell according to the invention comprises at least one metallic base contact, at least one metallic emitter contact and a
- the semiconductor structure has at least one base and at least one emitter region.
- the base and emitter regions are arranged at least partially adjacent to each other, so that at least in the boundary region between the base and emitter regions, a pn junction is formed.
- Base and emitter regions have opposite dopants. Doping types are the n-type doping and the opposite p-type doping.
- the base region is n-doped and the emitter region is p-doped.
- the doping types within the scope of the invention, that is to say a p-doped base and an n-doped emitter.
- the semiconductor structure may consist of a single silicon wafer, which has a basic doping as base doping and, for example, has an emitter of opposite doping type to the doping type of the base doping in a near-surface partial region.
- the emitter can be produced for example by means of diffusion of a dopant.
- the base contact is electrically conductively connected to the base region and the emitter contact is electrically conductively connected to the emitter region.
- the term “electrically conductively connected” neglects those currents or recombination which occur at or via a pn-junction
- the emitter and base regions are not electrically conductively connected via the pn junction and accordingly, the emitter contact is not electrically connected to the base contact.
- the term “base contact” designates a metallic structure which is electrically conductively connected to a base region.
- emitter contact in the context of this application designates a metallic structure which is electrically conductively connected to an emitter region.
- An emitter contact has, for electrical connection to the emitter region, a contiguous contact surface between emitter contact and emitter region, and likewise, a base contact for electrical connection to the base region has a contiguous contact surface between base contact and base region.
- the solar cell according to the invention comprises a plurality of metallic emitter contacts, each of which is electrically conductively connected to at least one emitter region, and likewise a plurality of metallic base contacts, which in turn are each electrically conductively connected to at least one base region.
- a plurality of emitter contacts are electrically conductively connected to an emitter region.
- the solar cell has a plurality of emitter regions, wherein each emitter region is electrically conductively connected to one or more emitter contacts. The same applies to the base contacts and the base areas.
- the emitter contacts are not electrically conductively connected to one another or exclusively via an emitter region, and likewise that the base contacts are not electrically conductively connected to one another or exclusively via a base region.
- the solar cell according to the invention is designed such that it has several
- a typical prior art single-contact solar cell includes, as described above, on the back comb-like interlocked metallization structures, which are connected on the one hand to the base and on the other hand to the emitter electrically conductive.
- an insulating layer is arranged between the metallic contacting structures and the semiconductor surface, which has a plurality of recesses through which the metallic structures are led, for contacting the underlying semiconductor.
- the solar cell according to the invention differs therefrom in that the emitter contacts have no electrically conductive connection with one another on the side facing away from the emitter region and the base contacts likewise have no electrically conductive connection on the side remote from the base region. In particular, therefore, the emitter contacts are not electrically connected to one another by a metallic contact structure and the same applies to the base contacts.
- the invention is based on the recognition of the Applicant that it is for optimizing and creating an unaffected to interference
- Solar cell structure is advantageous to perform the lateral current flow of charge carriers outside the semiconductor structure not in the metallic contact structures of the solar cell, but in the outer contact structures, which are not an integral part of the solar cell, such as the cell connectors in the module interconnection of solar cells.
- emitter contacts can be optimized exclusively with regard to the contacting properties of the respective semiconductor region, that is to say in particular with regard to the contact resistance and a low level of contact
- the lateral current flow outside the semiconductor structure in other connecting elements such as the cell connectors in module interconnection, so that they can be optimized separately for the lowest possible losses, such as ohmic series resistance losses for the lateral charge carrier transport.
- the solar cell according to the invention has the advantages that in external action, which leads to a break in the semiconductor structure, as a rule, the electrically conductive connection of the emitter contacts with the external connection structures such as the cell connectors is maintained, so that even by the Breakage in the semiconductor electrically separated areas of the solar cell can still contribute to electricity generation.
- a break in the semiconductor structure likewise typically leads to breakage of the comb-like metallic contacting structures on the contacting side of the solar cell, so that the lateral current transport on the one hand by the break in the semiconductor structure and on the other hand by the break in the comb-like metallic connecting structure is interrupted and thus at least parts of the solar cell can no longer contribute to power generation.
- the contacting side is advantageously the back of the solar cell. This allows a simple module interconnection and the reduction of shading losses on the front of the solar cell by metallic structures.
- the solar cell therefore has a multiplicity of emitter and / or base contacts according to the inventive design, in particular at least 10, preferably at least 100, furthermore at least 1000 emitter and / or base contacts.
- the emitters and the base contacts are arranged and designed such that emitter and base contacts are not interlocked, according to the following condition:
- the solar cell according to the invention is advantageously designed such that the emitter contacts are each arranged and configured such that an imaginary convex surface can be defined around each emitter contact, which contains the emitter contact completely and contains no base contact and also no portion of a base contact and that the base contacts in each case are arranged and formed that about each base contact an imaginary convex surface is definable, which contains the base contact completely and contains no emitter contact and also no portion of an emitter contacts.
- a surface is convex if, for any two points on the surface, the straight line connection between these two points lies completely within the surface.
- the aforementioned condition thus defines an advantageous embodiment of the solar cell according to the invention, in which the emitter and base contacts are not interlocked.
- intermeshing emitter and base contacts there is a risk that breakage of a solar cell will result in a fragment in which one contact of one polarity and with that contact intermeshing are portions of a contact of opposite polarity. Such fragments suffer a loss of efficiency and thus reduce the overall efficiency of all fragments. This is excluded for the condition mentioned.
- emitter and / or base contacts are designed and arranged such that a sufficient density of the contacts on the contacting side of the solar cell is achieved. As a result, series resistance losses are reduced within the solar cell due to the lateral conduction of charge carriers.
- the emitter and base contacts are therefore advantageously arranged and designed such that, for each emitter contact, at least this complete emitter contact and at least one complete base contact lies within an imaginary circle with a diameter d. Any emitter contact thus fulfills the condition that it lies completely in an imaginary circle with diameter d 7 around this emitter contact, and additionally at least one further emitter contact lies completely in this imaginary circle. Accordingly, for each base contact that within an imaginary circle with diameter d-, at least this complete base contact and at least one complete emitter contact are.
- the diameter d is chosen such that a condition according to formula 1 is satisfied:
- the advantageous embodiments of the solar cell according to the invention according to the condition with respect to formula 1 and according to the following conditions with respect to formulas 2, 3 and 4 are thus such that it is absolutely necessary to be able to define an imaginary circle with the respectively specified properties for the respective indicated contacts or contact groups. Furthermore, it is advantageous to ensure a sufficient density between the contacts of one polarity, ie between the emitter contacts on the one hand and / or the base contacts on the other hand.
- the emitter contacts are therefore arranged and designed such that, for each emitter contact within an imaginary circle with diameter d 2, at least this complete emitter contact and at least one further complete emitter contact lie.
- the base contacts are arranged and configured such that, for each base contact within an imaginary circle with diameter d 2, at least this complete base contact and at least one further complete base contact lie.

- emitter and base contacts are distributed approximately uniformly over the contacting side of the solar cell according to the invention.
- the emitter contacts and the base contacts are arranged at the crossing points of an imaginary, rectangular grid, in particular a grid with square cells.
- Emitter and base contacts are arranged such that emitter and base contacts alternate along each line of the imaginary grating. This leads to the fact that for an emitter contact the four nearest neighbors are each base contacts and vice versa.
- Typical solar cells have approximately the shape of a flat cuboid and, accordingly, the contacting side has a rectangular shape.
- the solar cell according to the invention has a rectangular contacting side and the imaginary grating described above is arranged such that the grating lines are at an angle of 45 ° to the edges of the contacting side.
- Base contacts are arranged on the crossing points of an imaginary grid, which has diamond-shaped grid elements. Likewise, it is within the scope of the invention to arrange the emitter and base contacts on two separate grids, d. H. to provide an imaginary grating for the emitter contacts and an imaginary grating for the base contacts.
- two adjacent emitter contacts have a spacing of less than 1 cm, in particular less than 5 mm.
- the base contacts are arranged such that the distance between two adjacent base contacts corresponds to the aforementioned conditions.

- the projection of any contact on the contacting side thus covers an area smaller than the listed limits.
- the emitter and base contacts are approximately circular or approximately square or approximately star-shaped.
- the contacting side of the solar cell according to the invention is improved in terms of its recombination properties in that the semiconductor structure has an electrically non-conductive insulating layer on the contacting side.
- this insulating layer also has passivating properties with respect to the surface recombination of the semiconductor structure.
- the insulating layer has recesses at the locations of the base and emitter contacts, and the base and emitter contacts are disposed on the insulating layer and passed through the recesses of the insulating layer for electrically contacting the underlying surface of the semiconductor structure.
- the recesses in the insulation layer are advantageously already present before the solar cells are connected to the insulation layer. It is also within the scope of the invention that the insulating layer is first arranged without recesses on the solar cells and in the
- Process step in which the contacts are generated including the recesses be generated.
- This is possible, for example, by using lasers according to the known method of "laser fired contacts” (LFC), as described in DE 100 46 170 A1
- LFC laser fired contacts
- the recesses are produced such that the contacts are first applied to the insulating layer and be heated in a subsequent firing step, so that the insulation layer is penetrated by the contacts, thereby forming the recesses and the contact is electrically connected to the semiconductor.
- the contacts are advantageously by means of vapor deposition, screen printing,
- the solar cell according to the invention is suitable in particular for the production by means of screen printing methods, since the dimensions, in particular of the base contacts, are suitable for screen printing conditions.
- the recesses of the insulation layer have an area smaller than 16 mm 2 , preferably smaller than 5 mm 2 , in particular smaller than 1 mm 2 , furthermore preferably smaller than 0.4 mm 2 , so that the contact surface of the metallic base and emitter contacts also the semiconductor surface have a correspondingly dimensioned area.
- the area of the base and emitter contacts can be made larger without this
- base and emitter contacts on the insulating layer each have a region with an area smaller than 16 mm 2 , preferably smaller than 5 mm 2 , in particular smaller than 1 mm 2 , furthermore preferably smaller than 0, Cover 4 mm 2 .
- the contacts preferably cover an approximately circular or approximately square region or approximately a star-shaped region.
- the solar cell according to the invention with a plurality of base and / or multiple emitter regions, wherein at least one base and an emitter region at least partially adjacent thereto are formed according to the structure according to the invention.
- the base contacts are electrically conductively connected to one another only via the base region of the semiconductor structure and also the metallic emitter contacts are connected only via the emitter region of the semiconductor structure.
- the emitter contacts are divided into groups, one group each comprising a number of at least 2 and a maximum of 30, in particular a maximum of 20, preferably a maximum of 10 emitter contacts.
- the emitter contacts of a group are over one
- the base contacts are divided into groups, one group each comprising a number of at least 2 and a maximum of 30, in particular a maximum of 20, preferably a maximum of 10 base contacts.
- the base contacts of a group are electrically connected via a metallization, however, the different groups of base contacts with each other, however, not or electrically connected exclusively via a base region.
- the groups of the emitter and base contacts are therefore arranged and designed such that for each group of emitter contacts within an imaginary circle with diameter d 3 at least this complete group of emitter contacts and at least one complete
- Group of base contacts are and that lie for each group of base contacts within an imaginary circle with diameter d 3 at least this complete group of base contacts and at least a full set of emitter contacts, wherein the diameter d 3 is selected such that a condition satisfies the formula 3 is:
- the term "complete” here and below means that the entire metallic structure of a group lies within the imaginary circle, and not just a subarea or midpoint of the group mentioned groups and a maximum in terms of dimensions of each group.
- the groups of both polarities i. H. the groups of the emitter contacts with one another and the groups of the base contacts with one another have a sufficiently high density on the contacting side of the solar cell:
- the groups of emitter contacts are therefore arranged and configured such that, for each group of emitter contacts within an imaginary circle of diameter d 4, at least this complete group of emitter contacts and at least one further complete group of emitter contacts are located.
- the groups of base contacts are arranged and designed such that, for each base contact within an imaginary circle with diameter d 4, at least this complete group of base contacts and at least one further complete group of base contacts lie.
- the diameter d 4 is selected from one another such that a condition according to formula 4 is satisfied:
- k 4 0.112.
- Base contacts in which case the groups with a reference point predefined for each group, such as the geometric center of a group, lie on the intersection lines of the imaginary gratings.
- the groups of emitter contacts have identical geometries with each other, d. H.
- the metallic structures are identical in terms of their extent and geometric dimensions. This is preferably the same for the groups of base contacts with each other and in particular the groups of emitter contacts are preferably the same design as the groups of the base contacts.
- all emitter and / or all base contacts of the solar cell are designed and / or arranged according to the structure according to the invention described above.
- the Partial area on the contacting side of the solar cell, in which the emitter and / or base contacts are designed according to the invention at least 70%, preferably at least 80%, in particular at least 95% of the surface of the contacting.
- the solar cell according to the invention represents a one-sided contactable solar cell.
- the further structure of the solar cell can be formed according to already known one-side contactable solar cell structures, in particular according to the basic structure of a backside contact cell (described for example in [1]), the basic structure of an emitter wrap-through solar cell
- the emitter of the solar cell according to the invention is advantageously produced by means of diffusion of a dopant into the semiconductor material.
- other methods or structures for forming the emitter are within the scope of the invention.
- the use of aluminum as a doping source for generating a p-type doping is advantageous, in conjunction with i) on the one hand with a vapor-deposited aluminum layer as dopant source and on the other hand ii) with printed aluminum-containing pastes.
- ii) can lead to a very complex process in which there is a partially melted layer which contains aluminum and silicon and essentially forms a eutectic mixture upon solidification.
- doping of the semiconductor with aluminum occurs. This process is not exclusively due to diffusion, but may also be a consequence of the solidification of the aluminum / silicon mixture.
- This formation of the emitter is thus particularly advantageous when forming a solar cell according to the invention starting from an n-doped semiconductor wafer.
- the solar cell according to the invention enables novel types of wiring in combinations of several solar cells in a solar cell module:
- the invention therefore further comprises a solar cell module according to claim 19.
- the solar cell module according to the invention comprises at least one first and one second solar cell, which are each solar cells according to the invention according to at least one of the previously described embodiments.
- the first solar cell is arranged in the solar cell module next to the second solar cell, wherein, as usual in such modular arrangements, the contacting side is in each case located in the module below.
- a cell connector is arranged, which is designed such that the emitter contacts of the first solar cell are electrically conductively connected to the base contacts of the second solar cell.
- the solar cells are thus connected in series. It is also within the scope of the invention to interconnect the solar cells in parallel, i. connect the emitter contacts of the first solar cell with the emitter contacts of the second solar cell electrically conductive and also the base contacts of the first solar cell with the base contacts of the second solar cell.
