Description

201027617 六、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係有關於如申請專利範圍第1項所說明的一種矽晶片 的氧化和清洗方法以及利用此方法所生產的太陽能電池。 【先前技術】 目前,太陽能電池製造大部份係涉及矽晶太陽能電池。製造 太陽能電池時,首先需生產矽晶片,即所謂的晶片(Wafer)。矽 晶片由於採用矽晶棒切割製造,在切割過程其晶體結構的表面容 易導致嚴重損傷,因而會影響所生產的太陽能電池的性能。因此 必須將所述的切割損傷層去除,一般係採用蝕刻法來進行矽晶片 的钱刻處理。在矽晶材料採用坩銷直拉法而加工理想的厚度的矽 晶片情形,則至少可以節省大部份的切割過程。然而,這些所謂 的梦晶材料其表面經常會遭受污染而影響以該材料生產的太陽能 電池的性能,因此,首先需進行触刻處理。 除了上述去除切割損傷或表面污染缺陷進行蝕刻外,一般在 砍晶片表面有必要進行額外的或選擇性的制絨製程(又稱表面結 構化製程)(surface texturizati〇n),以減少直射到石夕晶片表 面的太陽能_傷以及增加所生產的太陽能電池的光麵合作用。 在工業生產上’其表面金字塔結構(又稱金字塔群組織) (texturing) —般係採用濕式化學蝕刻法製造。 ㈣表面衫6賴化稍金轉轉,供製造太陽 月1^的〜日片需進行額外的擴散制結處理(Diffuse),並遍 採用树晶片⑽雜材料,其目的在於形成PN結〔該p是:p 201027617 型半導體(受體)’N是指N型半導體(施體)。PN結又稱為又稱 P-N接合’或稱耗盡區〕。由於擴散處理通常需要在7〇(rc以上的 ΛΠ·度進行,在如此尚溫下,石夕晶片表面或擴散設備上的污染遺留 也會擴散至發晶片上。因此,制絨處理(表面結構化製程)後所 產生的遺留雜質會嚴重影響所生產的太陽能電池的性能。所以在 擴散制結處理前’矽晶片的表面潔淨非常重要,要求矽晶片在制 絨處理後,送進擴散設備前,要進行清洗。一般是採用濕式化學 方法清洗’原則上業者有各種不同的清洗方法可以採用。 ® 工業生產矽晶太陽能電池,一般其清洗方式是,矽晶片在利 用酸性化學溶液進行金屬氧化處理前,首先採用一鹼性蝕刻液進 行飯刻處理。然後將矽晶片以氫氟酸(HF)水溶液進行飯刻處理。 清洗過程一般係利用水,通常使用去離子水來清洗。無論如何, 砍晶片在利用氫氟酸餘刻處理後需以去離子水清洗。其目的在於 去除石夕晶片上可能殘留的污染物質或酸液殘餘或至少能加以稀 釋。至於鹼性蝕刻液,一般係採用氫氧化鉀或氫氧化鈉(燒鹼) φ 溶液。矽晶片以氫氟酸亦或以含有氫氟酸的溶液蝕刻的主要目 的’在於去除矽晶片表面上存在的氧化矽層(silic〇n 〇xide layer)。該氧化矽層可以事先利用適當生產過程,例如濕式化學 氧化方法形成,或者該氧化矽層係所謂的天然氧化矽,通常係受 到空氣氧化作用的周圍環境條件而形成的。 利用風敗酸去除氧化石夕層後會有一層疏水性的梦晶表面。因 此’在接下來的以去離子水清洗過程,水份會自矽晶片表面去除, 以便石夕晶片只殘留極少量的去離子水或不含去離子水的殘留而允 許被送至擴散設備。因此,去離子水所產生的污染,例如上述的 201027617 溶解污染,可以在擴散設備内明顯地被避免,因而能夠明顯地不 致於影響所生產的太陽能電池的性能。因此,上述的利用氫氟酸 產生疏水性的矽晶表面在目前的工業生產矽晶太陽能電池是傳統 的技術。甚至於要免除一般以氫氟酸蚀刻的方法是不可能,因為 假設在此帶入擴散管的污染至少部份會抵達擴散設備,導致稍後 置入擴散設備的矽晶片雖然事先已使用氫氟酸清洗過,仍然會導 致矽晶片受到汙染而影響其正常的性能。然而此過程如果矽晶片 具有氡化⑦層而必須精擴減理時會有_,因為該氧化梦層 在清洗過程會被氫氟酸去除。因此,在擴散處理過程,如果氧化◎ 碎層存在有摻雜材㈣,麵散縣是非常有獅,例如在目前 經常被採用的現有的擴散過程,如果掺雜材料的擴散制結需利用 在梦晶絲面上所加卫峨化㈣來完成時,讀關產生具有 30至75 Ω/sq電阻率的發射極(ermitter),使能實現介於 與200 Q/sq之間的電阻率。此類氧化⑦層的高度電阻率如果仍 I保證與太陽能電池的良好電氣接觸而且具有滿意的較低電阻值 時’則_有利於提升效率。目此,糊氧化⑦層來擴散摻雜材 料在生產選擇性發射極(selective emitters)時可以有利地❹ 被應用。 【發明内容】 有鑑於此,為了克服上述習用技藝的各種問題,本發明的主 要目的在於提供—種抑片的清洗方法,而且财晶片至少有一 部份係具有一層氧化矽層。 此目的可藉如本發明申請專利範圍第1項所述的方法來達 成0 201027617 此外本發明的標的係如申請專利範圍第14項所述的-種太陽 能電池。 其他有利的實施例分別係本發明附屬項申請專利範圍的標 的。 ^騎洗方法迄今—致認為,以氫魏舰(HF_sQluti〇n) 或含氫氟酸的溶液使產生一疏水性表面的一種梦晶片姓刻法是必 要$,轉證能充分地清洗㈣#。_令人驚舒的是 ’不必利 用氫紐來__日肢形成—疏樣表面也可以達成一充分的 清洗效果’使能夠生產具有優良性能的太陽能電池。 因此,依據本發明的方法,矽晶片在蝕刻前至少有一部份的 表面具有氧化發層。餘刻係進一步在含有能夠氧化金屬污染物的 酸性溶液中處理。在此,太陽能電池的氧化♦層至少有一部份係 未受保護地曝露於雜溶液中。_過織,〜$片需以去離子 水清洗。至少-部份的未受賴的氧化_層至少有,份會遺留 在梦晶片上。梦晶片在清洗處理後需進一步進行乾燥處理;

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for oxidizing and cleaning a tantalum wafer as described in claim 1 of the patent application, and a solar cell produced by the method. [Prior Art] At present, most of solar cell manufacturing involves twinned solar cells. When manufacturing a solar cell, it is first necessary to produce a germanium wafer, a so-called wafer (Wafer).矽 Since the wafer is manufactured by cutting with a twin rod, the surface of the crystal structure during the cutting process is liable to cause serious damage, which may affect the performance of the produced solar cell. Therefore, the cutting damage layer must be removed, and etching is generally performed by etching. In the case of a wafer having a desired thickness processed by a twin-drawing method, the cutting process can save at least most of the cutting process. However, the surface of these so-called dream crystal materials is often contaminated to affect the performance of the solar cell produced by the material, and therefore, the first step is required. In addition to the above-mentioned etching to remove cutting damage or surface contamination defects, it is generally necessary to perform an additional or selective texturing process (also known as surface texturing process) on the surface of the chip to reduce direct light to the stone. Solar energy on the surface of the wafer - damage and increased matte cooperation of the solar cells produced. In industrial production, its surface pyramid structure (also known as pyramidal structure) is generally manufactured by wet chemical etching. (4) The tops of the topcoats 6 are transferred to a little gold. For the production of the solar moon, the daily film needs to be additionally diffused and Diffuse, and the tree wafer (10) is used for the purpose of forming a PN junction. p is: p 201027617 type semiconductor (acceptor) 'N means an N-type semiconductor (donor). The PN junction is also known as the P-N junction 'or depletion zone'. Since the diffusion treatment usually needs to be carried out at a temperature of 7 〇 (rc or more), at this temperature, the contamination residue on the surface of the stone wafer or the diffusion device is also diffused onto the wafer. Therefore, the texturing process (surface structure) The residual impurities generated after the chemical process will seriously affect the performance of the solar cells produced. Therefore, it is very important to clean the surface of the wafer before the diffusion bonding process. It is required that the wafer is sent to the diffusion device after the texturing process. It is to be cleaned. It is usually cleaned by wet chemical method. 'In principle, there are various cleaning methods that can be used. ® Industrial production of twinned solar cells, generally in the form of ruthenium wafers using metal oxidizing with acidic chemical solutions Before the treatment, the alkaline etching solution is first used for the rice cutting process, and then the silicon wafer is subjected to the rice etching process with an aqueous solution of hydrofluoric acid (HF). The cleaning process is generally performed by using water, usually using deionized water. In any case, The chopped wafer needs to be washed with deionized water after being treated with hydrofluoric acid. The purpose is to remove the stone wafer. The residual contaminant or acid residue may be at least diluted. As for the alkaline etching solution, potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) φ solution is generally used. The crucible wafer is hydrofluoric acid or hydrofluoric acid. The main purpose of the solution etching is to remove the silicium oxide layer present on the surface of the tantalum wafer. The tantalum oxide layer may be formed in advance by a suitable production process, such as a wet chemical oxidation method, or the tantalum oxide layer. The so-called natural cerium oxide layer is usually formed by the surrounding environmental conditions of air oxidation. After removing the oxidized stone layer by using the wind septic acid, there will be a layer of hydrophobic dream crystal surface. Therefore, the next step is During the ionized water cleaning process, the water is removed from the surface of the crucible wafer, so that the Shixi wafer only leaves a small amount of deionized water or no deionized water residue and is allowed to be sent to the diffusion device. Therefore, the deionized water is produced. Contamination, such as the above-mentioned 201027617 dissolved pollution, can be clearly avoided in the diffusion equipment and thus can clearly not affect the production The performance of the solar cell. Therefore, the above-mentioned hydrophobic surface which utilizes hydrofluoric acid to produce a hydrophobic crystal is a conventional technique in the current industrial production of a twinned solar cell. It is impossible to eliminate the method of etching with hydrofluoric acid. Because it is assumed that at least part of the contamination brought into the diffusion tube will reach the diffusion device, and the silicon wafer which is later placed in the diffusion device, although previously washed with hydrofluoric acid, will still cause the germanium wafer to be contaminated and affect its normality. However, if the germanium wafer has a deuterated 7 layer and must be finely expanded, there will be _ because the oxidized dream layer will be removed by hydrofluoric acid during the cleaning process. Therefore, if the oxidation process is oxidized ◎ There are doped materials in the broken layer (4), and there are many lions in the surface scattered county. For example, in the existing diffusion process that is often used at present, if the diffusion of the doped material is to be used, it is necessary to use the defensive on the surface of the dream crystal. (d) Upon completion, the read-off produces an emitter with an electrical resistivity of 30 to 75 Ω/sq, enabling a resistivity between 200 Q/sq. The high resistivity of such an oxidized 7 layer is advantageous in improving efficiency if it still ensures good electrical contact with the solar cell and has a satisfactory lower resistance value. To this end, the paste oxidizes 7 layers to diffuse the dopant material to be advantageously applied in the production of selective emitters. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, in order to overcome various problems of the above-described conventional techniques, the main object of the present invention is to provide a method for cleaning a film, and at least a portion of the chip has a layer of ruthenium oxide. This object can be achieved by the method of claim 1 of the present invention to achieve 0 201027617. Further, the subject matter of the present invention is a solar cell of the type described in claim 14. Other advantageous embodiments are the subject matter of the patent application scope of the present invention, respectively. ^The method of riding and washing has so far been thought that it is necessary to use a hydrogen Wei ship (HF_sQluti〇n) or a solution containing hydrofluoric acid to produce a hydrophobic surface. The method of engraving is necessary, and the transfer can be fully cleaned (4)# . _ It is fascinating that 'do not have to use hydrogen to __Japanese limb formation - the surface can also achieve a sufficient cleaning effect' to enable the production of solar cells with excellent performance. Thus, in accordance with the method of the present invention, the germanium wafer has an oxidized layer on at least a portion of the surface prior to etching. The remainder is further treated in an acidic solution containing oxidizable metal contaminants. Here, at least a portion of the oxidized layer of the solar cell is exposed unprotected to the heterogeneous solution. _ woven, ~ $ tablets need to be washed with deionized water. At least some of the unaffected oxidized _ layer will remain on the dream wafer. The dream wafer needs to be further dried after the cleaning process; ❹ silk is another invention of the invention—#_, the rare wafer needs to be treated side by side before the ion water cleaning, and at least part of the oxidation rhyme is not The protective ground is exposed to the residual liquid. This can improve the cleaning effect if necessary. Each __程, its non-weight ^ can be used during the cleaning process of each stage _ process. In order to (at) at least a portion of the at least heterogeneous unpourified oxidized Wei can remain on the tree wafer, at least the portion is hydrophilic (hydr〇phiUc) rather than hydrophobic (hyd_Qbic〇. Therefore, _ hydrofluoric acid containing solution To completely remove the oxidation (4), as in the conventional method of forming a non-hydrophobic surface, it is impossible. Therefore, it is impossible for the 201027617 to completely remove the yttrium oxide layer in the characterization process. Sexuality only exists in principle. In fact, the inspection (10) bribe does not occur when the stone is cleaned in the usual time. In accordance with the present invention, the etching rate and corrosion time of the alkaline etching solution can be guaranteed. It is not possible to completely oxidize the layer. Therefore, the wafer is at least partially exposed to hydrophilic conditions and needs to be dried after being washed with deionized water. Here, the drying treatment can be carried out by any method known at present. In addition, the etching operation using hydrofluoric acid can be substantially completely eliminated, and does not affect the performance of the produced solar cell. According to another advantageous embodiment of the present invention For example, the etching process of the dream wafer can be performed by hydrofluoric acid, especially _ money__ etch. According to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the wafer can be formed into a layer of ruthenium oxide by gas phase separation. It can be treated by a low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LpcvD), atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) or plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (pECVD) separation method. In addition, the oxidized hair layer is formed by wet thermal oxidation. If the oxidized stone layer formed on the tree wafer can be sufficiently surnamed during the cleaning process, the oxidized pin can in principle obtain a desired thickness. However, the longer the cleaning process, the finer the surface of the crystal, especially the long-term reaction of the secondary side. According to the other embodiment of the present invention, the oxidation # layer is ideally between 7Gnm and Moreover, the most desirable thickness is between 1 〇 nm and 70 nm (nm = nanometer). According to another embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the yttrium oxide layer is in the etching process ratio. Use an illustrative hydroxide solution 201027617 solution (alkaline hydroxi De s〇luti〇n), especially a water-soluble alkaline hydroxide solution 'and most importantly is a recording or lL oxygen tilting solution. According to another embodiment of the invention, the alkaline etching solution The cerium oxide etch rate is &lt; 25 nm per minute. This etch rate has proven to be reliable and advantageous in practical processing. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the dream wafer can be removed by wet chemical methods prior to processing the oxidized material. Butterfly damage. In the case of the known _ attack side method can be fine 'especially cut contact can be made - test hydroxide solution removal. In addition, strontium can also use acidic side liquid. Another advantage according to the present invention EXAMPLES The Shixi wafer is formed by a wet chemical method--pyramid structure (also referred to as pyramidal structure) on at least part of the surface of the Shihua wafer before processing the oxidized dream layer. In order to be able to form the pyramid structure by wet chemical methods, it is possible to use all known texturing etching solutions, especially an anionic or acidic texturing etching solution. After the cutting damage is removed by wet chemical methods, a gold column structure can be additionally or selectively formed by wet chemical methods. Another option for exempting the use of hydrofluoric acid is to additionally etch the Dream Crystals in a highly diluted or buffered hydrofluoric acid solution, and the oxygen chelate rate is <25 nm per minute. For example, there are advantages to using this method in situations where it is necessary to avoid the in-situ money engraving or in the case where it is necessary to remove the very thin cerium oxide (e.g., natural cerium oxide) present in each part. The etching time here obviously needs to match the etching rate. The above etching treatment using a highly diluted or buffered hydrofluoric acid solution may be combined with an acidic solution capable of oxidizing metal contaminants or etched in combination with an alkaline etching solution. The desired etching time of the germanium wafer in a hydrofluoric acid solution is less than one minute, and more preferably less than 30 seconds, preferably less than 15 seconds. 201027617 The method of the invention is particularly advantageous for the manufacture of solar cells. [Embodiment] Referring to the first figure, a schematic view of a first embodiment of the present invention "method according to this embodiment" is first performed by etching to remove the damage layer (10). Therefore, the method is particularly suitable for wafers cut by wafer rods. However, this method can be further applied to other twinned materials, for example, to thin film twins. After the cutting of the damage layer (1〇) by the money engraving method, the ruthenium oxide layer (12) may be generated on the surface of the ruthenium wafer by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) or other ruthenium oxide separation method may be used, especially It can be treated by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) or plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (P_) or thermal oxidation. In addition, the crucible wafer is etched in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (Na〇H, commonly known as caustic soda) (14) and then rotified in a hydrogenated hydrogen (HCL) aqueous solution (16). The vaporized argon (HC1) is soluble in water. The resulting aqueous solution is hydrochloric acid]. In the &amp; sodium oxide (Na〇H, commonly known as burning) aqueous solution in the ash # (14) process, in the hydrogenated (Ηα) aqueous solution · (10) process and below the _ process described in the _, the oxidation (four) Unprotected exposure to the side fluid. No _, such as fine coatings or dielectrics, is formed here to protect the ruthenium oxide layer in the etchant. Therefore, the yttrium oxide layer is completely unaffected. However, it is possible to require a special manufacturing domain to be in a process permitting condition, especially when it meets the cleaning requirements. The oxygen cut layer can be at least partially protected by (4) m, for example, by using appropriate dielectrics. As described above, the broken wafer can be fine (4) in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (commonly known as calcination), and weaved in a solution (10) of a vaporized hydrogen (Ηα) aqueous solution, which can also be first in sodium hydroxide (Na0H, The etching process is commonly performed in an aqueous solution. After the wafer has been etched, it is rinsed with deionized water (18). The present invention eliminates the traditional use of hydrofluoric acid etching so that at least a portion of the hafnium oxide layer remains on the germanium wafer. The reason for this is that it is possible to remove the ruthenium oxide layer during the etching of an alkaline etchant, and in all of the embodiments described below, the etch rate and the etch time of the etchant are adjusted so that it does not occur. An all-in-one residual solution can be advantageously used in all embodiments, in particular a water-soluble sodium hydroxide (Na〇H, commonly known as a burn) or a hydrazine clock with an etch rate of ruthenium oxide at a temperature of &lt;25 nm per minute. (Κ0Η) solution. After washing with deionized water ((8) process, the tantalum wafer is subjected to a drying treatment (20). Since the tantalum wafer is at least partially hydrophilic according to the method of the present invention, the drying treatment (2〇) process is more conventional than the current one. The cleaning method is more difficult. In principle, all conventional drying methods known at present can be used, for example a dry gas such as nitrogen can be used, preferably with additional thermal effects. The second figure shows a schematic representation of another embodiment of the invention. This embodiment differs from the embodiment of the present invention represented in the first figure in that, after removing the damage layer® (10), a pyramid structure is generated on the surface of the stone wafer by wet chemical remnant method (22). This method is generally referred to as texturing etching. Another difference is that the oxidized stone layer utilizes a thermal oxidation effect to produce a ruthenium oxide layer (24) on the surface of the stone wafer. The alkaline etchant used in the etching of the ruthenium wafer by this method can be changed from the sodium bismuth oxide (NaOH 'commonly known as burn test) aqueous solution to the sulphur (koh) water/liquid mixture (26). Express In an embodiment of the present invention, the final drying process (20) is performed by a dehydration process (28). Here, the crucible wafer can be suspended, for example, on a rotatable support. The dehydration treatment (28) can accelerate the subsequent process. Drying treatment time. 201027617 The third drawing shows a schematic view of another embodiment of the present invention, which eliminates the process of first removing the damage layer (10) by etching and the invention of the present invention represented by the second figure. In the examples, the process is different. The other difference is that it is corroded in aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide (26), and is sulphurized in aqueous solution of hydrogenated hydrogen (HCL) (16), followed by deionized water. After the cleaning (18) process, etching is carried out in a hydrogen acid (HF) buffer (30). This is done in a hydrofluoric acid (HF) buffer in the absence of the first cutting damage etching process ( 30) can be applied, can indeed remove very serious pollution on the germanium wafer. Use buffer to treat 'can guarantee if necessary' partial removal of corrosion in hydrofluoric acid (HF) buffer (30) form The ruthenium oxide layer. The residual rate of yttrium oxide to be selected when using the buffer is &lt;25 nm per minute. Here, it can also be achieved by using a buffer of a sufficiently diluted hydrofluoric acid which is often selected. Obviously It is also necessary to match the appropriate etching time to avoid complete removal of the yttrium oxide layer. After the etching (30) process in hydrofluoric acid (HF) buffer, additional deionized water cleaning (32) is required to remove Residual hydrofluoric acid buffer. The embodiment shown in the second figure does not use the subsequent dehydration treatment (28) process in the example shown in the second figure, but is blQwing (34). Instead of the method, the water is mechanically blown off the silicon wafer by a gas stream. Next is the drying process (2〇) of the tantalum wafer. The method used in the embodiment shown in the fourth figure is substantially the same as that shown in the second figure. Only the hetero (10) in the aqueous (10)) aqueous solution was replaced with a hetero (10) in a hydrofluoric acid buffer. As explained in the brief description of the third figure, it is necessary to select the appropriate buffer, side rate and rot, so that the previously formed oxidized dream layer is spoiled in the sulphonic acid (HF) buffer. 4 injuries can be removed. Here, the etch rate of the suitable ruthenium oxide layer is nm° per minute. (10) Only a sufficiently diluted hydrofluoric acid buffer, especially hydrolose chlorpyrifos buffer, is left behind so that the solution can often be used. To choose to act as a hydrofluoric acid buffer. The use of a hydrofluoric acid buffer or an etch treatment with a suitably diluted hydrofluoric acid buffer, for example in the case of having to switch to another alkaline retentate, has advantages. The other processes are the same as the other processes of the embodiment shown in the second figure. Please refer to the above related description.第一 ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® ® BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FOURTH EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION [Description of Main Components] [Invention] (10) Removal of a dicing damage layer by etching (12) is produced on the surface of a ruthenium wafer by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD).
