Description

钝化接触电池及制备方法和钝化接触结构制备方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及太阳能电池技术领域,具体涉及一种钝化接触电池及制备方法和钝化接触结构制备方法及装置。
背景技术
由于晶体硅电池基片厚度的不断降低,且对于一定厚度的电池片而言,当少数载流子的扩散长度大于基片厚度时,表面的复合速率对太阳能电池的效率影响特别明显。因此,现行的技术多是对晶体硅表面进行钝化处理。目前比较主流的钝化技术是在电池正背面沉积氮化硅钝化膜,改善复合问题。一种较为先进的技术是采用隧穿氧化层钝化接触技术(TOPCon);钝化隧穿技术在基片表面先沉积一层隧穿层;然后再覆盖一层掺杂的多晶硅层;从而形成隧穿氧化层钝化接触。隧穿氧化层钝化技术能在电极与基底之间形成隧穿薄膜,隔绝金属电极与基底接触,减少接触复合损失,因此电池的开路电压可以做到很高,并且电子能隧穿薄膜不会影响电流传递。
目前工业化生产中制备该隧穿钝化接触结构通常采用的方法为:1、先用热氧化生长氧化层,2、再通过CVD法(化学气相沉积)沉积本征非晶硅层,3、最后再通过离子注入或者扩散的方法,形成掺杂的多晶硅层。这种方式有如下缺点:
1、需要3台设备分别单独完成上述3道工序;虽然热氧化生长氧化层和CVD沉积非晶硅层可以在同一个管式炉里实现,但由于工艺温度不一致,需要花费更长的升温、降温等待时间,导致产能偏低;
2、第3步掺杂,如果采用离子注入的方法,机台比较昂贵;如果采用磷扩的方法需要使用掩模来实现单面掺杂,工序比较复杂;
3、热氧化跟CVD的方法工艺温度在550℃以上,高温会造成片子弯曲度大,影响产品良率,同时反应的气体会蔓延到衬底的背面,发生反应并沉积成膜,形成绕镀,需增加去绕镀步骤,增加成本。

具体实施方式
下面结合具体的实施例对本发明进行详细的说明。
具体实施例仅仅是对本发明的解释,并不是对本发明的限制,本领域技术人员在阅读完本说明书后可以根据需要对本实施例做出没有创造性贡献的修改,但只要在本发明的权利要求范围内都受到保护。
本发明提供一种钝化接触结构的制备方法,包括以下步骤:
S1、先将基片置于PECVD工艺腔内沉积隧穿氧化层,然后置于PVD工艺腔内沉积掺杂非晶硅层;所述PECVD工艺腔内设置有第一气体,所述PVD工艺腔内设置有第二气体和靶材;
所述靶材中包含至少一个含掺杂源的靶材,第二气体中不包含掺杂源气体;或,
所述靶材中包含至少一个含掺杂源的靶材,第二气体中包含掺杂源气体;或,
所述靶材中不包含含掺杂源的靶材,第二气体中包含掺杂源气体;
所述掺杂非晶硅层包括n层薄膜,n≥2,所述n层薄膜中至少包含一层掺杂层和一层非掺杂层;
S2、对基片进行退火处理,以激活所述掺杂非晶硅层,形成掺杂多晶硅层,完成钝化接触结构的制备。
本实施例实质上包含三种并列的技术方案:(1)、PVD工艺腔中的靶材为纯硅柱靶材,PVD工艺腔中的第二气体包含掺杂源气体,此时,PVD工艺腔中的基片的掺杂源仅为掺杂源气体,这种掺杂方法掺杂源更容易与基片反应形成掺杂非晶硅层,同时气体掺杂均匀性好,整面的掺杂方阻均匀,且气体掺杂更容易做到高浓度非晶硅层的掺杂;(2)、PVD工艺腔中的靶材为含掺杂源的靶 材,PVD工艺腔中的第二气体不包含掺杂源气体,此时,PVD工艺腔中的基片的掺杂源仅为含掺杂源的靶材,这种掺杂方式不需要使用到掺杂源气体,安全性能高,同时固体掺杂成本相对较低,节约成本,且固体掺杂更容易实现定量控制掺杂剂量,通过控制含掺杂源靶材的掺杂剂量来控制基片掺杂非晶硅薄膜的掺杂浓度;(3)、PVD工艺腔中的靶材为含掺杂源的靶材,PVD工艺腔中的气体包含掺杂源气体,此时,PVD工艺腔中的基片的掺杂源为含掺杂源的靶材和掺杂源气体,两者结合的这种掺杂方式,集合了气体掺杂和固体掺杂的优势,掺杂均匀,掺杂浓度可以做到更高,提升钝化接触结构的钝化水平,同时更高的掺杂浓度可以降低该钝化接触结构的接触电阻率和金属复合。
需要说明的是,本实施例中的气体为惰性气体和/或氢气,所述含掺杂源的气体为含磷掺杂气体或含硼掺杂气体,所述不含掺杂源的靶材为纯柱硅靶材。
本发明的制备方法艺简单、操作方便、安全可靠、质量稳定、生产效率高,易于实现大规模工业化生产,对于已存在的生产线易于更新、整合。
在一个实施例中,在步骤S1中,
所述PVD工艺腔包括m个独立腔体,m≥2;
所述m个独立腔体中至少存在一个独立腔体中设置有不含掺杂源的靶材,并通入不含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该腔体内形成本征非晶硅层;
所述m个独立腔体中至少存在一个独立腔体中设置有含掺杂源的靶材,并通入不含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该腔体内形成掺杂非晶硅层;或,所述m个独立腔体中至少存在一个独立腔体中设置不含掺杂源的靶材,并通入含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该腔体内形成掺杂非晶硅层;或,所述m个独立腔体中至少存在一个独立腔体中设置有含掺杂源的靶材,并通入含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该腔体内形成掺杂非晶硅层。
本实施例中,m个腔体的叠加,可以实现叠层掺杂非晶硅薄膜的沉积,最优化的掺杂非晶硅层的浓度为从隧穿氧化层界面向掺杂非晶硅层,掺杂浓度逐渐增加,靠近隧穿氧化层界面的低掺杂浓度可以使钝化接触结构的钝化水平更 高,靠近掺杂非晶硅层界面的高掺杂浓度可以使金属接触复合更低,接触电阻率更低,这种腔体的叠加使这种叠层渐变掺杂浓度的掺杂非晶硅薄膜更容易实现。
在一个实施例中,在步骤S1中,
所述PVD工艺腔包括一个整体腔体,所述整体腔体内按基片的行进方向设置有p个区域,p≥2;
所述p个区域中至少存在一个区域中设置有不含掺杂源的靶材,并通入不含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该区域形成本征非晶硅层;
所述p个区域中至少存在一个区域中设置有含掺杂源的靶材,并通入不含掺杂源的气体,以使硅片在该区域形成掺杂非晶硅层。
在一个实施例中,在步骤S1中,所述掺杂非晶硅层包括n层薄膜,n≥2,所述n层薄膜中至少包含一层掺杂层和一层非掺杂层。
本实施例通过将掺杂非晶硅层设置成包括n层薄膜,以形成多层隧穿结构,进而使金属接触复合与接触电阻率更容易获得最佳效果。
可选地,在步骤S1中,采用等离子体增强化学气相沉积法在PECVD工艺腔内沉积所述隧穿氧化层,所述第一气体至少包括氧气和/或一氧化氮。
可选地,在步骤S1中,采用磁控溅射法在PVD工艺腔内沉积本征非晶硅层,至少包括氩气、氢气或氧气中的一种气体或任几种气体组成的混合气体。可选地,在进行步骤S1之前,所述方法还包括:
S1’、在基片上设置带有图形的掩膜,以局部沉积隧穿氧化层和掺杂多晶硅层。
