Definitions
- the present invention relates to a crystalline silicon solar cell having a heterojunction on the surface of a single crystal silicon substrate.
- Crystalline silicon solar cells using a crystalline silicon substrate have high photoelectric conversion efficiency and have already been widely put into practical use as photovoltaic power generation systems.
- a crystalline silicon solar cell in which a conductive amorphous silicon thin film having a band gap different from that of a single crystal silicon substrate is formed on a single crystal silicon substrate is a heterojunction. It is called a solar cell.
- a solar cell having an intrinsic amorphous silicon thin film between a conductive amorphous silicon thin film and a single crystal silicon substrate for forming a diffusion potential has the highest conversion efficiency. This is known as one of the forms of crystalline silicon solar cells.
- an intrinsic amorphous silicon thin film between the single crystal silicon substrate and the conductive amorphous silicon thin film By forming an intrinsic amorphous silicon thin film between the single crystal silicon substrate and the conductive amorphous silicon thin film, the generation of new defect levels is reduced and the surface of the single crystal silicon is formed. Existing defects (mainly silicon dangling bonds) can be terminated with hydrogen.
- an intrinsic amorphous silicon thin film it is possible to prevent diffusion of carrier-introduced impurities to the single crystal silicon surface when forming a conductive amorphous silicon thin film.

- the electrical conductivity between the conductive amorphous silicon thin film (one conductive silicon thin film 41 or the reverse conductive silicon thin film 42 in the above embodiment) and the transparent electrode layer is electrically connected.
- the bonding state is very important from the viewpoint of the extraction efficiency of photoinduced carriers. For example, when a junction interface between a p-type silicon thin film and a transparent electrode layer is formed, the thermal equilibrium state is such that the Fermi level of the p-type silicon thin film and the Fermi level of the transparent electrode layer are at the same level. It is formed. In general, since the p-type silicon thin film has a lower carrier density than the transparent electrode layer, the band on the p-type silicon thin film side tends to bend when a thermal equilibrium state is formed at the bonding interface.
- the direction in which the band bends when the bonding interface is formed is determined by the Fermi level height of each layer. For example, when the Fermi level of the p-type silicon thin film is lower than the Fermi level of the transparent electrode layer (when the work function of the p-type silicon thin film is larger than the work function of the transparent electrode layer), the p-type silicon The band of the system thin film bends upward to form a thermal equilibrium state at the bonding interface.

- the origin of these conductivity is generally due to free electron drift or diffusion. According to the classic Drude law, a substance having free electrons has reflection / absorption caused by free electrons at a wavelength of 1000 nm or more. Therefore, if the resistivity is too low, the transmittance on the long wavelength side of the transparent electrode layer is remarkably reduced, which may lead to a reduction in conversion efficiency.
- the resistivity of the transparent electrode layer is high, it is necessary to increase the number of collector electrodes or increase the film thickness of the transparent electrode layer.

Note that even if the crystal grains can be observed by high-resolution observation such as TEM, those in which the X-ray crystal diffraction peak is not observed due to the small crystallite size are included in the amorphous state.
- the first transparent electrode layer is a layer that is not completely crystallized, the warpage of the solar battery cell is suppressed and high conversion efficiency can be maintained.
- the thickness of the conductive single crystal silicon substrate is as small as 250 ⁇ m or less, the solar cell tends to warp after the transparent electrode layer is formed, and the conversion characteristics tend to deteriorate. By being formed, a decrease in conversion efficiency due to such warpage is suppressed.
- an intrinsic silicon-based thin film and a conductive silicon-based thin film are formed on a single crystal silicon substrate with a substantially symmetrical thickness, whereas a transparent electrode layer is formed on a light incident side and a back side.
- the thickness is often different. Therefore, after the transparent electrode layers are formed on both sides, the stress applied to the interface differs between the front and back surfaces of the single crystal silicon substrate, and in the heterojunction solar cell using a single crystal silicon substrate with a small thickness, It is considered that warpage due to is likely to occur.
- the reason why the transparent electrode layers having different thicknesses are formed on the light incident side and the back surface side is that the design concepts of the two are different.
- the thickness of the transparent electrode layer on the light incident side is determined mainly from the viewpoint of optical design for efficiently making sunlight enter the cell (suppressing reflection), whereas the transparent electrode layer on the back surface side
- the thickness of the transparent electrode layer is determined from the viewpoint of electrical design such as a resistance value mainly in order to increase the electricity extraction efficiency.
- the manufacturing process of a photovoltaic cell such as formation of the collection electrode after transparent electrode layer formation, and the measurement of conversion efficiency, is implemented by fixing a photovoltaic cell on a processing stand. At this time, a method (adsorption method) in which the solar battery cell is adsorbed to the processing table by exhausting from a hole formed in the processing table is widely used.
- a crystalline conductive metal oxide has a residual stress.
- a crystalline ITO film generally has a residual compressive stress.
- an amorphous conductive metal oxide has a small residual stress or no residual stress compared to a crystalline one). Therefore, it is estimated that the amorphous film is formed as the transparent electrode layer, thereby reducing the stress difference between the front and back surfaces of the single crystal silicon substrate and suppressing the warpage.
- the second transparent electrode layer is also amorphous in addition to the first transparent electrode layer.
- the crystallinity of the transparent electrode layer can be evaluated, for example, by electron diffraction or X-ray diffraction in the cross-sectional direction.

- the amorphous transparent electrode layer can be formed at room temperature of, for example, about 50 ° C. or lower, which can contribute to improvement of productivity.
- the carrier density and crystallinity of the transparent electrode layer change the material and composition of the conductive oxide and the film forming conditions (film forming method, substrate temperature, introduced gas type and amount, film forming pressure, power density, etc.). Therefore, it can be adjusted appropriately.
- a target having a tin oxide content of 3 to 12% by weight is preferably used.
- a target containing 1.5 to 6% by weight of tin with respect to the total of indium and tin is preferably used.
- the conductive carrier in the transparent electrode is mainly derived from oxygen deficiency when a different element contained as a dopant is activated. For this reason, when the amount of the oxidizing gas such as oxygen is reduced to lower the substrate temperature, the carrier density tends to increase. Also, the carrier density tends to increase by increasing the amount of different elements (for example, tin in ITO). Since the amount of carrier density varies depending on whether the amount of dopant or oxygen deficiency is the dominant factor determining carrier density, the effective manufacturing parameters for carrier density adjustment include the type and amount of dopant, and other factors. There are different tendencies depending on various film forming conditions.
- an amorphous film can be easily obtained.
- damage to the silicon thin film or single crystal silicon substrate that is the base during film formation is reduced, so that the decrease in open-circuit voltage and fill factor are suppressed.

- the annealing temperature is preferably kept in a high temperature region around 100 ° C. from the deposition temperature of the silicon-based thin film. If the annealing temperature is too high, dopant diffusion from the conductive silicon-based thin film to the intrinsic silicon-based thin film, formation of impurity levels due to diffusion of different elements from the transparent electrode layer to the silicon region, defects in the amorphous silicon The characteristics may deteriorate due to the formation of levels.
- the solar cell after the collector electrode is formed can be improved in physical strength by coating a film such as ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) resin to form a protective layer.
- EVA ethylene vinyl acetate
- the protective layer also has a role of preventing deterioration of the silicon-based layer and the electrode layer due to oxygen and moisture. It is also possible to suppress loss of optical characteristics by giving a haze to the surface of the protective layer made of an EVA film or the like by blasting or the like.
- Another layer such as a reflective layer may be formed between the collector electrode and the protective layer.
- Crystallinity of transparent electrode The crystallinity of the transparent conductive layer was evaluated by identifying the presence or absence of a peak by an X-ray diffraction method using a sample in which an ITO film was formed on the same alkali-free glass as the hole measurement sample. X-ray diffraction measurement was performed by the 2 ⁇ / ⁇ method, and the measurement range of 2 ⁇ was 20 to 80 °.

- Examples 2 to 8, Comparative Examples 2 to 5 In the formation of the first transparent electrode layer 61 in Example 1, the film forming conditions of the substrate side ITO layer 61A and the surface side ITO layer 61B (tin oxide content in the target, substrate temperature, pressure, power density, carrier gas introduction) The amount and the film thickness) were changed as shown in Table 1. Otherwise in the same manner as in Example 1, a crystalline silicon solar cell schematically shown in FIG. 1 was produced.
- Example 1 In the formation of the first transparent electrode layer 61 of Example 1, the substrate-side ITO layer 61A was not formed, and only the ITO layer 61B was formed to a thickness of 90 nm. Otherwise in the same manner as in Example 1, a crystalline silicon solar cell was produced.
- Table 1 shows the film forming conditions of the substrate side ITO layer 61A and the surface side ITO layer 61B and the evaluation results of film characteristics (carrier density and crystallinity) in each example and comparative example.
- Table 2 shows the film characteristics of the substrate-side ITO layer 61A and the surface-side ITO layer 61B, the photoelectric conversion characteristics of the crystalline silicon solar cell, and the presence or absence of warpage.
- a solar cell having a high short-circuit current, an open-circuit voltage, and a high fill factor can be produced by providing a transparent electrode layer having a high carrier density at the bonding interface between the silicon-based thin film and the transparent electrode layer.
- the improvement of the fill factor is considered to be due to the improvement of the electrical connection between the silicon-based thin film and the transparent electrode layer. It is considered that the improvement of the open circuit voltage is due to suppression of carrier recombination due to band bending being controlled.
- the improvement of the short circuit current is considered to be derived from the transparency (low carrier density) of the surface-side conductive layer.
- Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 From comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, by providing the substrate-side conductive layer A in contact with the conductive silicon thin film having a relatively high carrier density, the open-end voltage Voc and the fill factor FF are particularly high It can be seen that it has improved. This is because the bonding factor at the interface between the conductive silicon-based thin film and the transparent electrode is improved, the fill factor is improved, and the band bending of the conductive silicon-based thin film is adjusted. This is considered to be because the decrease in the end voltage was suppressed.

(膜厚)
透明電極の膜厚は、SEM(フィールドエミッション型走査型電子顕微鏡S4800、日立ハイテクノロジーズ社製)を用い、10万倍の倍率で観察して求めた。
ホール測定用のサンプルとして、無アルカリガラス(商品名「OA-10」、日本電気硝子社製)上に、各実施例および比較例における基板側ITO層61Aおよび表面側ITO層61Bのそれぞれと同一の製膜条件でITO膜を形成した。このサンプルを1cm四方に折り割りし、その4つの角に金属インジウムを電極として融着した。磁力3500ガウスで、基板の対角方向に1mAの電流を流した際の電位差を基に、van der pauw法によりホール移動度を測定し、キャリア密度を算出した。
上記ホール測定用のサンプルと同一の無アルカリガラス上にITO膜が形成されたサンプルを用いて、X線回折法により、ピークの有無を識別することによって、透明導電層の結晶性を評価した。X線回折測定は、2θ/θ法により行い、2θの測定範囲を20~80°とした。
第1の透明電極層および第2の透明電極層が製膜された後、集電極が形成される前のセルを、第1の透明電極層側(光入射側)が上面となるように、水平な台上に静置し、目視にて反りの有無を確認した。
ソーラーシミュレータにより、結晶質シリコン系薄膜太陽電池にAM1.5の光を100mW/cm2の光量で照射して、開放電圧(Voc)、短絡電流密度(Jsc)、曲線因子(F.F.)および変換効率(Eff)を測定した。

実施例1の第1の透明電極層61の形成において、基板側ITO層61Aおよび表面側ITO層61Bの製膜条件(ターゲット中の酸化錫含有量、基板温度、圧力、パワー密度、キャリアガス導入量、および膜厚)が表1に示すように変更された。それ以外は実施例1と同様にして、図1に模式的に示される結晶シリコン系太陽電池が作製された。
実施例1の第1の透明電極層61の形成において、基板側ITO層61Aが製膜されず、ITO層61Bのみが90nmの膜厚で製膜された。それ以外は実施例1と同様にして、結晶シリコン系太陽電池が作製された。
