一种太阳能电池正面栅线电极的制备方法  Method for preparing solar cell front gate line electrode
技术领域 Technical field
本发明涉及晶硅太阳能电池制备技术领域, 特别涉及一种太阳能电池正面 栅线电极的制备方法。 背景技术  The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of a crystalline silicon solar cell, and in particular to a method for preparing a front gate electrode of a solar cell. Background technique
太阳能电池是通过光电效应或者光化学效应直接把光能转化成电能的装 置。 太阳能光伏发电在不远的将来会占据世界能源消费的重要席位, 不但要替 代部分常规能源, 而且将会成为世界能源供应的主体。 高效、 低成本已成为太 阳能电池发展的重要目标。 为了获得高效太阳能电池, 正面栅线的遮光面积要 减小, 同时又要具备高效的电荷收集能力, 因此太阳能电池正面栅线的制备显 得尤其重要。  A solar cell is a device that directly converts light energy into electrical energy through a photoelectric effect or a photochemical effect. Solar photovoltaic power generation will occupy an important seat in the world's energy consumption in the near future, not only to replace some of the conventional energy, but also to become the main body of the world's energy supply. Efficient and low cost has become an important goal for the development of solar cells. In order to obtain a high-efficiency solar cell, the front gate line has a reduced light-shielding area and an efficient charge collection capability, so the preparation of the front gate line of the solar cell is particularly important.
目前, 晶硅太阳能电池正面栅线电极的制备一般采用丝网印刷工艺, 制备 的栅线宽度在 80微米以上, 高度为 5 ~ 30微米, 较宽的栅线遮光面积大, 影响 光吸收; 但是栅线变细后, 栅线的高度会降低, 电池的欧姆接触电阻大, 限制 了电流的收集能力, 降低了太阳能电池的转化效率。 所以, 要获得高转化效率 的电池, 必须减小栅线宽度, 提高栅线的高宽比, 传统的丝网印刷工艺已经很 难做到。  At present, the preparation of the front gate electrode of the crystalline silicon solar cell generally adopts a screen printing process, and the prepared gate line has a width of more than 80 micrometers and a height of 5 to 30 micrometers, and a wide grid line has a large light-shielding area, which affects light absorption; After the gate line is thinned, the height of the gate line is lowered, and the ohmic contact resistance of the battery is large, which limits the current collecting ability and reduces the conversion efficiency of the solar cell. Therefore, in order to obtain a battery with high conversion efficiency, the width of the gate line must be reduced, and the aspect ratio of the gate line must be increased. The conventional screen printing process has been difficult to achieve.
另外, 丝网印刷工艺中使用的银浆主要由银粉颗粒、 无机相和有机载体组 成, 经过丝网印刷后的硅片, 需要经过烧结炉快速烧结才能形成银电极。 当银 电极与硅达到共晶温度时, 晶体硅原子就会以一定的比例融入到银电极中, 形 成欧姆接触。 由于银浆中的银粉颗粒大小、 成分配比以及烧结工艺都会对欧姆 电阻有较大影响, 因此质量差的银浆或者不合适的烧结工艺都会增加电极的串 联电阻, 降低太阳能电池的转换效率。 发明内容 In addition, the silver paste used in the screen printing process is mainly composed of silver powder particles, an inorganic phase and an organic carrier. After the screen printing, the silicon wafer needs to be rapidly sintered in a sintering furnace to form a silver electrode. When the silver electrode and the silicon reach the eutectic temperature, the crystalline silicon atoms are incorporated into the silver electrode in a certain ratio to form an ohmic contact. Because the size, distribution ratio and sintering process of the silver powder in the silver paste will be ohmic The resistance has a large influence, so poor quality silver paste or improper sintering process will increase the series resistance of the electrode and reduce the conversion efficiency of the solar cell.
