Problems solved by technology

However, using conventional technology to directly use metallurgical polysilicon (UMG-Si) to prepare batteries, it was found that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery is very low, because the material itself contains more metal impurities and defects, and the content of boron and phosphorus is also higher.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of metallurgy-prepared polysilicon solar cell, relates to a solar cell, and provides a preparation method of the metallurgy-prepared polysilicon solar cell, which can adopt silicon material with lower purity (5-6N) and greatly reduce the production cost. The method comprises the steps of adding a phosphorus source to the metallurgy-prepared polysiliconchip to be treated for a phosphorus gettering treatment and removing the gettering layer; leading oxygen with water vapour into the metallurgy-prepared polysilicon chip treated with phosphorus gettering and gettering layer removing for wet-oxygen oxidation, and removing the oxidation layer; and preparing the metallurgy-prepared polysilicon chips treated with the wet-oxygen oxidation and the oxidation layer removing into the cells according to a conventional process, and annealing the prepared cell chip.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell, in particular to a method for preparing a low-cost silicon solar cell (especially a silicon chip with a relatively low substrate resistivity). Background technique [0002] Because solar photovoltaic power generation has the characteristics of mature technology, inexhaustible resources, no pollution and no noise, solar cells are considered to be the most important new energy in the 21st century. Solar cells are mainly based on the semiconductor material silicon. Because the material cost of polycrystalline silicon solar cells is lower than that of monocrystalline silicon solar cells, the efficiency is higher than that of thin film cells, and it is easy to prepare square shapes, the proportion of polycrystalline silicon solar cells is gradually increasing. [0003] At present, solar-grade silicon, the raw material of solar cells, mainly comes from scraps in the production process of monocrystalline silicon or mater...
