Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a printing stencil for technical printing, in particular for solar cell printing, for applying a printing pattern to a substrate, in particular a substrate of a solar cell, for example for printing a front or rear side contacting of the solar cell.
  • the manufacturing method comprises providing a carrier layer of the printing stencil,
  • the present invention further relates to a printing stencil for technical printing, in particular for solar cell printing, for applying a printing pattern to a substrate, in particular a substrate of a solar cell, comprising a carrier layer of the printing stencil, a structural layer of the printing stencil lying below the carrier layer, wherein the structural layer a longitudinally extending, at least a portion of the printing pattern corresponding printed image opening in the structural layer, and wherein the carrier layer in the region of the print image opening comprises carrier layer openings.
  • Such printing stencils can be provided, for example, for solar cell printing, ie, for example, for applying a contacting, in particular front contacting, to a solar cell.
  • the longitudinally extending printed image openings of the structural layer can be provided, for example, for the printing of contact fingers of a front contact of the solar cell.
  • the present invention is not limited to printing stencils for solar cell printing, but also, for example, also relates to special or hybrid stencils having at least one carrier layer and at least one structural layer for applying metallizations on substrate surfaces. Background of the invention
  • Such printing screens comprise a wire mesh fabric clamped in a frame which is provided in a structural layer, such as e.g. A thin photographic emulsion layer is embedded (see, for example, a printing screen according to DE 10 2007 052 679 A1) and which supports the structural layer or acts as a carrier layer of the structural layer.
  • a photoemulsion layer has the printing image openings corresponding to the printed image of the contacting to be printed, the screen fabric stabilizing the photoemulsion layer also extending in the region of the printed image openings of the structural layer.
  • the wire mesh fabric is usually mounted on a frame and then coated with a photosensitive material (e.g., an emulsion layer or a film). Subsequently, the structuring of the printed image takes place e.g. by exposure of the photosensitive material.
  • the use of such printing screens results in the application of the contacting of the solar cell to the solar cell substrate with disadvantages, in particular with regard to the printing of the so-called contact fingers of a front contacting of the solar cell.
  • the contact fingers should be printed with the smallest possible width (for example in the range of about 20 ⁇ to ⁇ ) in a uniform height as possible on the substrate to allow a uniform as possible line cross-section (resistance) and to increase the energy efficiency of the solar cell.
  • a power line with the lowest possible electrical resistance must be made possible with respect to the energy efficiency of the solar cell by the contact fingers, ie the contact fingers must be formed with the largest possible aspect ratio, since the electrical resistance of the contact fingers depends on the cross section of the contact fingers.
  • any constrictions of the contact finger reduce the conductivity of the finger and thus reduce the overall efficiency of the solar cell.
  • the aspect ratio of the contact fingers should consequently be designed to be uniform over as much as possible over the entire length of the contact fingers.
  • the screen fabric and in particular crossing points of the screen fabric in the region of the print image openings of the photoemulsion layer impair the uniformity of the paste application to the substrate of the solar cell during printing.
  • the maximum achievable paste strength, and thereby the maximum achievable height of the printed contact fingers, to which the aspect ratio is directly proportional severely limited by the Siebgewebe Modell in the print image openings.
  • a printing stencil proposed according to DE 10 2011 003 287 comprises a carrier layer and a structural layer of the printing stencil lying below the carrier layer, wherein the structural layer has an elongated printing image opening in the structural layer corresponding to at least part of the printing pattern.
  • the longitudinally extending print image opening in the structural layer in this case corresponds, for example, to the print pattern of a contact finger of a front side contacting of a solar cell.
  • the carrier layer comprises in the region of the print image opening elongate, extending in the longitudinal direction of the print image opening, in Substantially rectangular or at the corners optionally slightly rounded support layer openings, which are separated from each other by a stabilizing web.
  • the printing stencil is suitable for applying a printing medium, such as contacting material, to the substrate through at least one opening by overlapping the substrate layer openings with the printed image opening in a plan view of the printing stencil such that the printing stencil has an opening formed from the printed image opening and the substrate openings the pressure medium such as bonding material can be applied to the substrate.
  • the print medium runs below the carrier layer to a uniform 3-dimensional shape.
  • the carrier layer openings in the carrier layer can be produced by means of laser cutting.
  • the laser beam is focused substantially directly on the surface of the carrier layer (i.e. essentially focused directly at a focal point on the surface of the carrier layer), possibly depending on the laser cutting method, a few ⁇ m above or below the surface of the carrier layer.
  • the focusing device is controlled such that the laser beam is guided to cut out the carrier layer opening along the edge of the carrier layer opening to be cut out to cut the carrier layer opening along the edge from the carrier layer (see, for example, Fig. 3A).
  • the print image opening of the structure layer is a print image opening for a contact finger of a front contact of a solar cell, it is necessary to cut out a multiplicity of individual carrier layer openings for each of the numerous contact fingers, so that very long times are required for working out the carrier layer openings when producing a single printing template occur, for which also still very expensive laser cutting devices must be used.
  • Printing stencils which have a carrier layer and a structural layer, it is an object of the invention to improve the production of a support layer and a structural layer having printing stencils, such that the production can be carried out easier, cheaper and more time efficient.
  • the present invention is based on the idea not to excise the carrier layer openings of the carrier layer by means of a focused laser beam circumferentially along the edge of the Unezu.den carrier layer openings from the carrier layer, as is known according to conventional laser cutting method, but

  • the defocused cross section of the laser beam at the level of the laser entrance side surface of the carrier layer has a selected depending on the width of the carrier layer openings width, and is not substantially bundled to a focal point, as in conventional methods of Case is.
  • an opening in the carrier layer corresponding to a width of the carrier layer opening to be worked out can already be worked out or "shot out” at a position of the carrier layer by means of one or possibly more laser pulses whose cross-sectional shape substantially
  • the production of a printing stencil can thus be carried out in a simpler, cheaper and more time-efficient manner, since the substrate openings do not have to be cut out by time-intensive method of a focused laser beam along the circumference of the carrier layer openings to be worked out, but instead already have carrier layer openings by means of one or more laser pulses Widths in the range of 20 ⁇ to 100 ⁇ worked out or "shot out” can be.
  • This results in a significant time advantage over the conventional method which is not in the lower percentage range, but rather in the range may mean ten to eighty times the acceleration of the production of the printing stencils.
  • a width of the cross section of the defocused laser beam at the level of the laser entrance side surface of the carrier layer slightly smaller than the desired width of the carrier layer opening to be worked out (about 50% to 95%, depending on the thickness and material of the carrier layer), since the By means of the laser beam introduced heat energy can cause the carved out carrier layer opening is greater than the cross section of the defocused laser beam used.
  • a method for producing a printing stencil for the technical printing for applying a printing pattern to a substrate comprising the steps of providing a carrier layer of the printing stencil, providing a structural layer of the stencil sheet lying below the carrier layer, in particular with a layer thickness greater than 5 ⁇ , working out of a longitudinally extending or extending in a longitudinal direction, at least part of the print pattern corresponding print image opening in the structure layer, and working out of carrier layer openings in the carrier layer in the print image opening, such that a print medium through the carrier layer openings and the print image opening on the substrate can be applied.
  • the inventive method is characterized in that when working out the carrier layer openings a defocused depending on the width of the adoptedzu.den carrier layer openings laser beam is used, i. in particular, a laser beam which is not concentrated in a focal point lying substantially at the level of the surface of the carrier layer or slightly above or below the surface of the carrier layer, as in conventional methods, but at the level of the surface of the carrier layer is substantially defocused, and in particular at the level of the surface of the carrier layer has a cross section with widths greater than ⁇ , preferably over 20 ⁇ .
  • laser beam i. in particular, a laser beam which is not concentrated in a focal point lying substantially at the level of the surface of the carrier layer or slightly above or below the surface of the carrier layer, as in conventional methods, but at the level of the surface of the carrier layer is substantially defocused, and in particular at the level of the surface of the carrier layer has a cross section with widths greater than ⁇ , preferably over 20 ⁇ .
  • the production of a printing stencil can thus be carried out in a simpler, cheaper and more time-efficient manner, since the carrier layer openings do not have to be cut out by time-consuming operation of a focused laser beam along the circumference of the carrier layer openings to be worked out, but wider or smaller substrate openings have already been worked out by means of one or more laser pulses Can be "shot out.”
  • a laser pulse can be "shot out"

  • it is preferably appropriate to dimension a width of the cross section of the defocused laser beam at the level of the laser entrance side surface of the carrier layer slightly smaller than the desired width of the Maszu.den carrier layer opening (about 50% to 95%, depending on the thickness and material of Carrier layer), since the heat energy introduced by means of the laser beam can lead to the fact that the processed carrier layer opening is larger than the cross section of the defocused laser beam used.
  • the working out of the carrier layer openings comprises working out a series of carrier layer openings extending in the longitudinal direction of the print image opening, wherein the position of the laser beam is moved between two successive laser pulses after working out of a carrier layer opening relative to the carrier layer and in the longitudinal direction of the print image opening to a position of the subsequently opened carrier layer opening ,
  • This makes it possible to form a stabilizing web between carrier layer openings in a time-efficient manner and in a simple manner in the carrier layer such that the position of the laser is moved between one carrier layer opening and the next carrier layer opening to be processed between two laser pulses relative to the carrier layer.
  • the position of the laser beam when working out a respective carrier layer opening of the row, is positioned at a position of the respective carrier layer opening and preferably the respective carrier layer opening is worked out by means of one or more laser pulses at this position, in particular preferably one or two to ten laser pulses.
  • the position of the laser beam during the working out of the respective carrier layer opening by means of one or more laser pulses is essentially not moved.

  • the spacing of the carrier layer openings can here be controlled by means of the pulse frequency of the laser and / or by the feed.
  • the individual carrier layer openings are given in the method according to the above-described particularly useful embodiment in shape mainly by the shape of the cross section of the laser beam at the level of the carrier layer (in particular the shape of the cross section of the laser beam at the level of the laser entrance side surface of the carrier layer), since the respective Carrier layer openings are worked out or "shot out” by individual laser pulses at a position of the carrier layer, and are not cut out by guiding a focused laser beam along the circumference of the carrier layer opening.
  • the individual carrier layer openings are thus hereby worked out, for example, substantially circularly, if the carrier layer is not moved relative to the focussing device or to the laser beam.
  • the carrier layer is moved during the application of the laser pulse, corresponding to the movement, elongated support layer openings rounded off at the ends with a shape corresponding to a slot are formed, ie slot-shaped carrier layer openings are formed.
  • the width of the carrier layer openings is determined essentially by the size of the defocused cross section of the laser beam on the surface of the carrier layer, whereby a broader carrier layer opening can generally occur due to the introduced heat energy.
  • a 20- ⁇ m-wide laser cross-section can produce a carrier layer opening with a width of up to 25 ⁇ m by emitting the thermal energy to the sides, without changing the position of the laser beam.
  • carrier layer opening diameters of up to 300 ⁇ m can be achieved in the practical field of application it is possible at usual carrier layer thicknesses of 20pm to 800 ⁇ to work out with already with only one laser pulse at frequencies of 0.9 to 3kHz carrier layer openings with diameters ranging from below 20 ⁇ up to about 150 ⁇ .
  • respective webs may remain in the carrier layer between two carrier layer openings.
