Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of photovoltaic cells, more particularly to the field of molybdenum-based conductive substrates used to produce thin-film photovoltaic cells.
- certain thin-film photovoltaic cells use a conductive substrate based on molybdenum coated with a layer of absorber agent, generally copper chalcopyrite Cu, indium In, and selenium Se and / or S sulfur. It may be, for example, a material of the CulnSe 2 type. This type of material is known under the abbreviation CIS. It can also be CIGS, that is to say a material that also incorporates gallium.
- the electrodes are most often based on molybdenum (Mo), because this material has a number of advantages. It is a good electrical conductor (relatively low specific resistance of the order of ⁇ ⁇ . ⁇ ). It can be subjected to the necessary high heat treatments because it has a high melting point (2610 ° C). It resists, to a certain extent, selenium and sulfur. Deposition of the absorber layer most often requires contact with an atmosphere containing selenium or sulfur which tends to deteriorate most metals. Molybdenum reacts on the surface, with selenium in particular, forming MoSe 2 , but retains most of its properties, including electrical properties, and maintains adequate electrical contact with the CIS or CIGS layer. Finally, it is a material on which the CIS or CIGS type layers adhere well, molybdenum even tends to promote crystal growth.
- Mo molybdenum
- molybdenum has a significant disadvantage when considering industrial production: it is an expensive material. Indeed, the molybdenum layers are usually deposited by sputtering (magnetic field assisted). But molybdenum targets are expensive. This is all the less negligible as to obtain the desired level of electrical conductivity (a resistance per square less than or equal to 2 ⁇ / ⁇ , and preferably less than or equal to 1 or 0.5 ⁇ / ⁇ after treatment in an atmosphere containing S or Se), you need a layer of Mo relatively thick, generally of the order of 700nm to 1 micrometer.
- the patent application WO-A-02/065554 of SAINT-GOBAIN GLASS FRANCE teaches to provide a relatively thin layer of molybdenum (less than 500 nm) and to provide one or more alkali-impermeable layers between the substrate and the layer based on molybdenum, so as to preserve the qualities of the thin layer based on molybdenum during subsequent heat treatments.
- This type of conductive substrate is nevertheless relatively expensive.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a new conductive substrate based on molybdenum whose manufacturing cost is relatively low.
- the subject of the present invention is a conductive substrate for a photovoltaic cell, comprising:
- an electrode coating formed on the substrate comprising a molybdenum-based layer
- the conductive substrate comprising a stack of several layers formed on the substrate and interposed between the substrate and the electrode coating, of which:
- a first alkali impervious layer i.e., alkali metal formed on the substrate;
- An alkali retention layer the alkali retention layer (ie with alkaline ions) being formed on the first alkali-impermeable layer and in a material other than the first alkali-impermeable layer, the ratio of the thickness of the alkali retention layer and the first alkali impervious layer being 2 or more;
- a second alkaline impervious layer i.e., alkali metal
- the second alkali impermeable layer is formed on the alkali retention layer and in another material than the alkali retention layer.
- Such a stack makes it possible to ensure an effective barrier to alkalis (ie to alkaline ions) during the heat treatments undergone by the conductive substrate, in particular during the deposition of the absorber agent based on chalcopyrite.
- alkali-proof certain materials, which we will call “alkali-proof”, are difficult to penetrate by alkaline ions and thus prevent the migration of alkali to the upper layers.
- the stack cleverly combines waterproof layer and retention layer by placing a retention layer between two impermeable layers. As a result, if the first impermeable layer is crossed, the alkaline ions will be largely trapped in the retention layer, in particular because the second impermeable layer greatly limits the possibilities for the alkaline ions to leave the retention layer.
- the layers are not here chosen to have the same thicknesses.
- the retention layer of the stack has a thickness at least two times greater than the impermeable layer on which it is deposited. It has indeed been found that substantially only the thickness of the retention layer has a significantly positive influence on the alkaline barrier properties of the stack.
- the stack is thus particularly well adapted to prevent alkaline ions from migrating to the upper layers at a relatively low cost.
- the molybdenum-based layer is not likely to be degraded by the action of alkaline ions, it is thus possible to provide a layer of molybdenum-based thin, for example about 30nm.
- the cost of the electrode coating can thus be relatively low.
- reducing the thickness of the molybdenum layer has another advantage: allowing to deposit these relatively thin layers by cathodic sputtering with deposition parameters leading to strongly constrained layers, without the delamination problems that can be encountered with thick layers. Thin layers also tend to have fewer defects known as "pinholes" (pinholes).
- Providing such a stack also makes it possible to use as a substrate a sand-silico-soda-lime type glass sheet obtained by floating, glass of a relatively low cost and which has all the qualities that are known to this type of material. as for example its transparency, its impermeability to water and its hardness.
