- solar cells when solar cells are classified based on their substrate materials, they can be broadly divided into three types: silicon crystal solar cells, amorphous (amorphous) silicon solar cells, and compound semiconductor solar cells. Silicon crystal solar cells are further classified into single crystal solar cells and polycrystalline solar cells. Since silicon crystal substrates for solar cells can be manufactured relatively easily, silicon crystal solar cells are most popular.

- Patent Document 1 exemplifies the processing conditions of an oxidation process for transforming a boron silicide layer into a boron silicate glass layer.
- FIG. 5 of Patent Document 1 and paragraph [0033] of the specification the boron silicide layer remains and cannot be removed under the processing conditions.
- the boron silicate glass layer formed by oxidizing the boron silicide layer is formed by the phosphorous diffusion to the boron diffusion layer on the silicon substrate surface in the next phosphorus diffusion step. It may function as a barrier layer that prevents diffusion.
- a boron silicate glass layer having a thin film thickness and low density is formed, and the function as a barrier layer cannot be sufficiently exhibited. For this reason, in the prior art, a boron silicate glass layer as a high-quality barrier layer may not be obtained, and phosphorus may diffuse into the boron diffusion layer on the silicon substrate surface.

- FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining a temperature and an atmosphere in a boron diffusion process of Comparative Example 3.
- FIG. It is a figure which shows the relationship between the time in 900 degreeC or more in a 2nd step, and the conversion efficiency of a photovoltaic cell. It is a figure which shows the relationship between the process temperature of a 1st step, and the sheet resistance value of a photovoltaic cell.
- FIGS. 1 (a) to 1 (h) and FIGS. 2 (a) to (d) are explanatory diagrams of the manufacturing process of the solar battery cell.
- 1A to 1H show the manufacturing process from texture structure formation to etching of the silicate glass layer
- FIGS. 2A to 2D show the manufacturing process from antireflection film formation to PN junction separation.
- FIG. 1 (a) for example, a crystalline orientation (100) produced by the CZ method, a 15.6 cm square, a thickness of 100 to 300 ⁇ m, and a specific resistance of 1 to 14.0 ⁇ ⁇ cm.
- a type silicon single crystal substrate W is prepared.
- the substrate W is immersed in a high concentration (eg, 10 wt%) sodium hydroxide aqueous solution to remove the damaged layer. Thereafter, wet etching is performed by immersing the substrate W in a solution obtained by adding isopropyl alcohol to a low concentration (for example, 2 wt%) aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Thereby, a texture structure is formed on the entire surface of the substrate W. Thereafter, the substrate W is cleaned.
- the size of each mountain of the texture structure is about 0.3 to 20 ⁇ m.
- acid etching or reactive ion etching may be performed in order to form the texture structure.
- the boron diffusion process includes a first step of diffusing boron on the surface S of the substrate W and a second step of oxidizing the boron silicide layer formed on the substrate W.
- boron diffusion process-first step As shown in FIG. 3, a state in which the back surfaces BS of the two substrates W are in contact with each other is set as a set of substrate groups WG, and a plurality of sets of substrate groups WG are placed on predetermined positions of the wafer boat 1. Then, the wafer boat 1 is carried into the diffusion furnace, and the diffusion furnace is sealed. Thereafter, the temperature in the diffusion furnace is heated to 950 ° C. Then, boron tribromide (BBr 3 ) is introduced into the diffusion furnace using a mixed gas of nitrogen and oxygen as a carrier gas. At this time, the carrier gas is adjusted so that the flow ratio of nitrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere in the diffusion furnace is within the range of 99.5: 0.5 to 95: 5. By maintaining such a state for 5 to 120 minutes, boron diffusion is performed (boron diffusion step—first step).
- the boron diffusion layer 2 is formed on the surface S of the substrate W as shown in FIG.
- a boron silicide layer 3 and a boron silicate glass layer 4 are also formed on the boron diffusion layer of the substrate W.
- the diffusion process is performed in a state where the back surfaces BS of the two substrates W are in contact with each other, but there is a slight gap between the back surfaces BS of the two substrates W. Exists. For this reason, boron tribromide (BBr 3 ) gas enters the gap between the back surfaces BS of the substrate W, and as shown in FIG. 1B, the boron diffusion layer extends not only to the front surface S of the substrate W but also to the back surface BS. 2 and a boron silicide layer 3 and a boron silicate glass layer 4 are formed.
- the temperature during boron diffusion is preferably 920 to 1050 ° C. This is because boron diffusion to the substrate W is insufficient when the temperature during boron diffusion is lower than 920 ° C., and boron diffusion to the substrate W is excessive when it exceeds 1050 ° C. In such a case, a boron diffusion layer having a desired sheet resistance cannot be obtained. From the viewpoint of further improving the conversion efficiency of the solar cell, the sheet resistance value is preferably 30 to 150 ⁇ / ⁇ .
- the flow ratio of nitrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere in the diffusion furnace is outside the range of 99.5: 0.5 to 95: 5, that is, the flow ratio of nitrogen and oxygen is 99.5: 0.5.
- Boron having a desired sheet resistance is obtained when the flow rate of nitrogen is further increased as compared with the case where the flow rate of nitrogen and oxygen is further decreased as compared with the flow rate ratio of nitrogen and oxygen being 95: 5.
- a diffusion layer cannot be obtained.
- a boron diffusion layer having a desired sheet resistance cannot be obtained when the diffusion treatment time is less than 5 minutes or more than 120 minutes.
- boron diffusion process-second step After completion of the boron diffusion treatment (first step), the atmosphere in the diffusion furnace is exhausted and an oxidizing gas (for example, oxygen, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, etc.) is introduced into the diffusion furnace. At this time, the temperature in the diffusion furnace is adjusted to maintain the temperature of boron diffusion treatment (first step) (950 ° C. in the present embodiment). After making the inside of the diffusion furnace an oxidizing atmosphere, for example, it is held for 15 minutes, and then the temperature is lowered and taken out from the diffusion furnace. During this holding time and temperature drop, the boron silicide layer 3 formed on the substrate W is oxidized (boron diffusion step—second step).
- an oxidizing gas for example, oxygen, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, etc.
- the minimum of the temperature of an oxidation process is 900 degreeC.
- the boron silicide layer 3 can be more reliably oxidized, thereby obtaining a dense boron silicate glass layer 4. Can do.
- the temperature of the oxidation treatment becomes higher than the treatment temperature of the boron diffusion treatment (first step)
- boron diffusion proceeds to the substrate W even during the oxidation treatment, and the boron diffusion layer becomes thick, and the desired temperature is reached. Sheet resistance cannot be obtained.
- the upper limit of the temperature of an oxidation process is made into the process temperature of a boron diffusion process (1st step).
- the oxidation treatment temperature is 900 ° C. or more and the boron diffusion treatment (first step) temperature or less, if the oxidation treatment time is short, the boron silicide layer 3 can be sufficiently oxidized. Can not.
- the inventors of the present application can sufficiently form the boron silicide layer 3 if the time during which the processing temperature is within the above temperature range is secured for 15 minutes or more in the oxidation processing step (second step). It was found that it can be oxidized.
- the time during which the furnace temperature is within the above temperature range under an oxidizing atmosphere is 15 minutes or longer. If secured, the boron silicide layer 3 can be sufficiently oxidized even if the furnace temperature subsequently falls outside the above temperature range or the furnace atmosphere becomes a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
- the oxidation treatment time is more preferably 20 minutes or longer.
- the upper limit of the oxidation treatment time is preferably 120 minutes.

- PN junction separation of the peripheral edge portion 11 of the substrate W is performed using a laser. Thereby, the front surface side and the back surface side of the substrate W are electrically separated. Then, the manufacturing process of a photovoltaic cell is completed through an inspection process.

- Conversion efficiency (Eff.) Is improved. This is because in the example of the present invention, the boron silicide layer formed on the silicon substrate could be completely removed by performing the second step (oxidation treatment), and in Comparative Example 2, it was completely removed. This is probably because it was not done.
- the conversion efficiency of Comparative Example 1 is greatly improved.

It is thought that it was not possible. That is, even if the oxidation treatment is performed for a sufficiently long time as in Comparative Example 3, if the oxidation treatment temperature is lower than 900 ° C., the conversion efficiency cannot be improved.
- the processing conditions other than the processing time of the second step are substantially equal.
- the time in the second step is 900 ° C. or higher is set to at least 15 minutes, the conversion efficiency can be improved as compared with the result in the case of a processing time of about 10 minutes. For this reason, the processing time of the second step needs to be secured for 15 minutes or more. Moreover, if 20 minutes or more are ensured, the conversion efficiency can be further improved.
- Example 2 if the state where the temperature is 900 ° C. or higher and lower than the processing temperature of the first step is maintained for 15 minutes or longer in the second step, the solar cell It turns out that the conversion efficiency of a cell can be improved.
- the processing temperature of the first step was examined.

Therefore, the partial pressure ratio of nitrogen and oxygen in the first step is preferably in the range of 95.5: 0.5 to 95: 5.
- the processing time of the first step was examined. The results are shown in FIG. Note that the processing conditions other than the processing time of the first step are substantially equal. As shown in FIG. 16, if the processing time of the first step is within a range of 5 to 120 minutes, it may fall within a preferable range (30 to 150 ⁇ / ⁇ ) for further improving the conversion efficiency of the solar battery cell.
