Description

Paste adhesive sheet and solar cell using same {Sheet for adhering paste and Solar cell using the same}

The present invention relates to a paste adhesive sheet and a solar cell using the same, and more particularly, to an aluminum paste adhesive sheet used to form a back electrode of a solar cell and a solar cell using the same.

Recently, as energy resources such as oil and coal are expected to be depleted, interest in alternative energy to replace them is increasing. Among them, solar cells are attracting particular attention because of their abundant energy resources and environmental pollution problems.

Solar cells are classified into solar cells that generate steam required to rotate turbines using solar heat, and solar cells that convert photons into electrical energy using the properties of semiconductors. It refers to a solar cell (hereinafter referred to as a solar cell).

Solar cells are divided into silicon solar cell, compound semiconductor solar cell and tandem solar cell according to raw materials. Of these three types of solar cells, silicon solar cells are the mainstream in the solar cell market.

1 is a cross-sectional view showing a basic structure of a silicon solar cell. Referring to the drawings, a silicon solar cell includes a substrate 101 made of a p-type silicon semiconductor and an emitter layer 102 made of an n-type silicon semiconductor, and a diode 101 is formed at the interface between the substrate 101 and the emitter layer 102. [ A pn junction is formed.

When sunlight is incident on a solar cell having the above structure, electrons and holes are generated in a silicon semiconductor doped with impurities by a photovoltaic effect. For reference, electrons are generated in a majority carrier in the emitter layer 102 made of an n-type silicon semiconductor, and holes are generated in a majority carrier in the substrate 101 made of a p-type silicon semiconductor. Electrons and electrons generated by the photovoltaic effect are attracted toward the n-type silicon semiconductor and the p-type silicon semiconductor, respectively, and are electrically connected to the front and back electrodes 103 and 104 bonded to the bottom of the substrate 101 and the top of the emitter layer 102, When the electrodes 103 and 104 are connected by a wire, a current flows.

Typically, an aluminum paste composition is used to form the back electrode 104. The back electrode 104 forms an aluminum layer so that aluminum is diffused onto the wafer to form a p + layer from the aluminum-silicon alloy layer. This is called a back surface field (BSF) layer, which plays an important role in improving the efficiency of solar cells.

As a method of applying the aluminum paste composition used for forming the back electrode 104 on the wafer substrate, a screen printing method is usually used. In the screen printing method, a screen mask on which discharge holes are formed is placed on a wafer substrate, a paste is coated on the screen mask, and then a paste is printed on the substrate by pushing the paste into the discharge holes of the screen mask with a squeegee.

However, the pressure applied by the squeegee to discharge the paste causes a difference between the center portion and the outer portion of the mask. This pressure difference causes a problem that the amount of the aluminum paste composition printed on the wafer is different from each other at the center and the outer portion of the substrate.

In order to solve this problem, a more sophisticated screen printer operation is required in the screen printing method, but there is a problem that productivity is lowered and the limitation of the screen printing method still exists.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an aluminum paste adhesive sheet capable of applying the aluminum paste composition to a wafer substrate more easily and uniformly.

In addition, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for forming a back electrode of a solar cell having excellent productivity using the aluminum paste adhesive sheet and a solar cell manufactured therefrom.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention, two release film facing each other; And an aluminum paste adhesive sheet interposed between the two release films, the aluminum paste adhesive composition layer including an aluminum powder, glass frit powder, an organic binder, and an adhesive.

In the present invention, the pressure-sensitive adhesive may include, for example, acrylic resins, silicone resins, rubber resins, urethane resins, polyester resins, epoxy resins, or the like, alone or in combination of two or more thereof.

In the present invention, the pressure-sensitive adhesive may be added in various amounts as necessary, for example, may have a content of 100 to 900 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of aluminum powder, but is not limited thereto.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also comprises the steps of preparing a pressure-sensitive adhesive solution containing (S1) pressure-sensitive adhesive; (S2) adding and mixing aluminum powder, glass frit powder, and an organic binder to the adhesive solution; And (S3) applying the mixture to the first release film and then laminating a second release film thereon, to provide a method of manufacturing an aluminum paste adhesive sheet.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also, (S1) removing the first release film of the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of claim 1; (S2) attaching the aluminum paste adhesive sheet from which the first release film is removed to the back surface of the silicon substrate such that the exposed aluminum paste adhesive composition layer contacts the back surface of the silicon semiconductor substrate; And (S3) removing the second release film of the aluminum paste adhesive sheet attached to the back surface of the silicon substrate, and then performing heat treatment.

Through the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of the present invention, the aluminum paste can be easily and uniformly applied to the wafer substrate.

In addition, the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of the present invention, because the aluminum paste is present in the form of a sheet, it is very easy to store, transport and management.

In addition, the back electrode forming method of the solar cell using the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of the present invention does not require a cleaning operation performed in the screen printing process.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The terms and words used in the present specification and claims should not be construed as limited to ordinary or dictionary terms and the inventor may appropriately define the concept of the term in order to best describe its invention It should be construed as meaning and concept consistent with the technical idea of the present invention.

2 schematically shows an embodiment of an aluminum paste adhesive sheet 10 according to the present invention. It should be noted, however, that the embodiments shown in the following description and the configurations shown in the drawings are only the most preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not represent all the technical ideas of the present invention. Therefore, It should be understood that various equivalents and modifications may be present.

The aluminum paste adhesive sheet 10 of the present invention includes an aluminum paste adhesive composition 12 interposed between two release films 11 facing each other and the two release films 11.

As described above, the aluminum paste composition printed on the wafer substrate by the conventional screen printing method was a very difficult task to apply a uniform amount on the wafer substrate, which becomes more serious when applied in large areas.

However, since the aluminum paste adhesive sheet 10 of the present invention includes an aluminum paste composition layer uniformly formed in advance, the aluminum paste composition may be uniformly applied to the wafer substrate by attaching it on the wafer substrate. Let's do it. Further, since the application of the aluminum paste composition to the substrate is simply performed by the attachment of the sheet, even if the area of the wafer is large, only the size of the sheet can be adjusted to easily and uniformly apply. In addition, since the aluminum paste composition used to form the back electrode can be stored in the form of a sheet, it is easy to manage and transport.

The aluminum paste adhesive composition layer 12 according to the present invention further includes an adhesive in order to secure adhesiveness with the wafer substrate in addition to the aluminum powder, glass frit powder, and the organic binder, which are conventionally included in the aluminum paste composition.

In the present invention, a pressure-sensitive adhesive may be used alone or a mixture of the above-mentioned resin and a suitable solvent as the pressure-sensitive adhesive. Examples of the adhesive resin include acrylic resins, silicone resins, rubber resins, urethane resins, polyester resins, epoxy resins, and the like, but are not limited thereto.

In the present invention, when the acrylic resin is used, the acrylic resin may be, for example, an acrylic copolymer made of a (meth) acrylic acid ester monomer and a crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer.

The kind of the (meth) acrylic acid ester monomer is not particularly limited, and for example, alkyl (meth) acrylate can be used. At this time, when the alkyl group contained in the monomer is too long, the cohesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive may be lowered, and the glass transition temperature and the adhesiveness may become difficult to control. Therefore, the alkyl group having 1 to 14, preferably 2 to 8 carbon atoms It is preferable to use the (meth) acrylic acid ester system monomer which has. Examples of such monomers include methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, n-propyl (meth) acrylate, t-butyl (meth) acrylate, sec-butyl (meth) acrylate, pentyl ( Meta) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylbutyl (meth) acrylate, n-octyl (meth) acrylate, isooctyl (meth) acrylate, isononyl (meth) acrylate, etc. Can be used individually or in mixture of 2 or more types, respectively.

The (meth) acrylic acid ester monomer as described above is preferably included in an amount of 90 parts by weight to 99.9 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the total copolymer. If the content is less than 90 parts by weight, there is a risk that the initial adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive may be lowered, and if it exceeds 99.9 parts by weight, there is a fear that a problem of cohesion decreases.

The crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer is provided with a crosslinkable functional group in the acrylic copolymer to provide a crosslinking point for the reaction with the multifunctional crosslinking agent described later. As an example of the crosslinkable functional group containing monomer which can be used by this invention, a hydroxyl group containing monomer, a carboxyl group containing monomer, a nitrogen containing monomer, etc. can be used individually or in mixture of 2 or more types, respectively.

In the present invention, the crosslinkable functional group-containing monomer as described above is preferably included in an amount of 0.1 parts by weight to 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the total acrylic copolymer. If the content is less than 0.1 parts by weight may cause a problem that the cohesive force is lowered, if more than 10 parts by weight there is a possibility that the compatibility is lowered, the surface migration occurs or the problem that the adhesive properties are lowered due to the reduction of flow characteristics.

Optionally, the acrylic copolymer according to the present invention may further comprise any comonomer in view of the control of the glass transition temperature and the provision of other functionalities. The type of comonomer which can be used is a monomer containing a copolymerizable vinyl group, and is not particularly limited as long as the glass transition temperature is -130 ° C to 50 ° C in the non-crosslinked state. Examples of such comonomers include monomers represented by the following formula (1).

In Formula 1,

R 1 to R 3 each independently represent hydrogen or alkyl;

R 4 represents cyano, alkyl substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, acetyloxy, or COR 5 , wherein R 5 represents amino or glycidyloxy unsubstituted or substituted with alkyl or alkoxyalkyl.

Alkyl or alkoxy in the definition of R 1 to R 5 of Formula 1 means alkyl or alkoxy having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy or butoxy.

Specific examples of the monomer that can be represented by Formula 1 include nitrogen-containing monomers such as (meth) acrylonitrile, (meth) acrylamide, N-methyl (meth) acrylamide or N-butoxymethyl (meth) acrylamide. ; Styrene-based monomers such as styrene or methylstyrene; Glycidyl (meth) acrylate; Or carboxylic acid vinyl esters such as vinyl acetate, but are not limited thereto. When the functional monomer as described above is included in the acrylic copolymer of the present invention, the content is preferably 20 parts by weight or less based on 100 parts by weight of the total copolymer. When the content exceeds 20 parts by weight, there is a fear that the flexibility and / or peeling force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is lowered.

The method for producing the acrylic copolymer containing each of the above components is not particularly limited, and for example, it can be prepared through a general polymerization method such as solution polymerization, photopolymerization, bulk polymerization, suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization. In the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use a solution polymerization method, and solution polymerization is preferably performed at a polymerization temperature of 50 ° C to 140 ° C by mixing an initiator in a state where each monomer is uniformly mixed. Initiators which can be used at this time include azo polymerization initiators such as azobis isobutyronitrile or azobiscyclohexane carbonitrile; And / or conventional initiators such as peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide or acetyl peroxide.

In addition, examples of the metal chelate-based compound may be a compound in which a polyvalent metal such as aluminum, iron, zinc, tin, titanium, antimony, magnesium, and / or vanadium is coordinated with acetyl acetone, ethyl acetoacetate, or the like. It is not limited.

The multifunctional crosslinking agent is preferably included in an amount of 0.01 to 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the adhesive resin. If the content is less than 0.01 parts by weight, the crosslinking reaction may not proceed well, and the cohesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive may be reduced. If the content is more than 10 parts by weight, the crosslinking reaction may proceed excessively and the adhesive properties may be lowered.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of a method of forming a back electrode of a silicon solar cell using the aluminum paste adhesive sheet 10 manufactured according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3. 3 schematically shows an embodiment of a method of forming a back electrode of a silicon solar cell according to the present invention.

First, the first release film 11 of the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of claim 1 is removed (S1). Next, the aluminum paste adhesive sheet from which the first release film is removed is attached to the back surface of the silicon substrate 20 so that the exposed aluminum paste adhesive composition layer 12 contacts the back surface of the silicon semiconductor substrate 20 ( S2). Subsequently, the second release film 11 of the aluminum paste adhesive sheet attached to the back surface of the silicon substrate 20 is removed and then heat treated (not shown) (S3).

Through the heat treatment process, the organic component included in the aluminum paste adhesive composition layer 12 is removed, and aluminum is diffused through the rear surface of the substrate 20 so that a back surface field is not shown on the interface between the rear electrode and the substrate. A layer can be formed. The heat treatment may be performed at a conventional temperature applied when forming the back electrode, and may be, for example, 700 to 950 ° C.

Hereinafter, a silicon solar cell manufactured using the aluminum paste adhesive sheet of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 4 as an example.

4 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the structure of a silicon solar cell according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When defects existing in the emitter layer 202 are passivated, the recombination sites of the minority carriers are removed and the open circuit voltage of the solar cell is increased. When the reflectance of the solar light is reduced, the amount of light reaching the p-n junction is increased to increase the short circuit current of the solar cell. When the open-circuit voltage and the short-circuit current of the solar cell are increased by the antireflection film 203, the conversion efficiency of the solar cell is improved accordingly.

The front electrode 204 is made of the aluminum paste composition of the present invention. The silver electrode is excellent in electrical conductivity, the aluminum electrode is excellent in electrical conductivity, and has good affinity with the substrate 201 made of a silicon semiconductor and has good merit.

The front electrode 204 and the rear electrode 205 can be manufactured by various known techniques, but are preferably formed by a screen printing method. That is, the front electrode 204 is formed by screen printing the silver paste composition on the front electrode formation point and then performing heat treatment. When the heat treatment is performed, the front electrode penetrates the antireflection film 203 and is connected to the emitter layer 202 by a punch through phenomenon.

The back electrode 205 may be formed according to the method for forming a back electrode of the present invention described above. As described above, when the rear field layer is formed through heat treatment, the carrier may be prevented from recombining by moving to the rear surface of the substrate 201. When the recombination of the carriers is prevented, the open voltage and the fidelity are increased and the conversion efficiency of the solar cell is improved.
