Problems solved by technology

However, if the thickness of the electrode is reduced, the formation of the back surface field effect (BSF) will be affected, especially when there is an uneven suede structure on the surface of the substrate, the conductivity will decrease, and the contact resistance between the aluminum electrode and the substrate will increase. Resulting in a reduction in open circuit voltage and conversion efficiency

Abstract

The invention discloses paste for forming solar battery electrode, which comprises the following components by mass percent: 65 to 75 percent of aluminum powder, 20 to 30 percent of organic carrier, 0.2 to 6 percent of inorganic glass powder and 0.5 to 1 percent of functional additive. The aluminum powder comprises at least two types, the average particle diameter of one type of the aluminum powder is smaller than 2 micro meters and the mass of the type of the aluminum powder is 1 to 10 percent of that of the aluminum powder. The paste can form back surface field effect required by a solar battery with a silicon substrate, and has the advantages that the electrical conductivity is good, the contact resistance is low, the adhering to the silicon substrate is firm, the silicon substrate is slightly bent, and the open-circuit voltage of the solar battery and the photoelectric conversion efficiency are high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a paste for forming solar cell electrodes. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of solar technology, improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells and reducing production costs have become the main goals of research and development in the solar cell industry. The thinning of silicon substrate materials is one of the important means to save materials and reduce costs. However, the thin silicon wafer has poor bending stress resistance, and the substrate bends greatly after the aluminum electrode on the back is sintered, resulting in an increased breakage rate during component production. [0003] In the past, the back electrode paste of silicon solar cells usually uses aluminum powder with an average particle size of 2-10 μm, and the printing thickness is 20-25 μm. If the bending of the thin silicon substrate is to be suppressed, the printing thickness of the aluminum back electrode must be...
