Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, when using N-type crystalline silicon as a substrate to make heterojunction solar cell devices, the intrinsic type (intrinsic) amorphous silicon film (a-Si:H) is generally used to passivate the upper and lower sides of crystalline silicon (substrate). surface, while adding heavily doped p+-a-Si:H to form the emitter and n+-a-Si:H to form the back field (BSF), but because the uniform emitter requires higher doping concentration and thicker The thickness of the emitter, due to the existence of defects formed by boron atoms in the emitter, the recombination of carriers in the emitter region reduces the passivation effect, resulting in a reduction in the open circuit voltage and short circuit current, which in turn reduces the conversion efficiency of the overall battery

Abstract

The invention discloses a heterojunction solar cell with a selective emitting electrode and a manufacturing method of the heterojunction solar cell. The heterojunction solar cell comprises an N-type crystalline silicon substrate, a front-face intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, a light doped P-type amorphous silicon layer, a front-face transparent conducting film layer, a front-face silver grid electrode, a heavy doped P-type amorphous silicon layer, a back-face intrinsic amorphous silicon layer, a heavy doped N-type amorphous silicon layer, a back-face transparent conducting film layer and a back-face silver grid electrode, and the N-type crystalline silicon substrate is provided with a front face and a back face. The heavy doped P-type amorphous silicon layer is adopted as the selective emitting electrode, is arranged at the contact position of the front-face transparent conducting film layer and the light doped P-type amorphous silicon layer and is provided with a plurality of heavy doped P-type amorphous silicon monomers, and the heavy doped P-type amorphous silicon monomers correspond to grid wires of the front-face silver grid electrode one to one and are located under the corresponding grid wires respectively. The heavy doped N-type amorphous silicon layer is deposited on the lower surface of the back-face intrinsic amorphous silicon layer. According to the solar cell and the manufacturing method, recombination of current carriers can be reduced, absorption of the emitting electrode on the current carriers is reduced, and therefore open-circuit voltages and short-circuit currents are improved, and the efficiency of the heterojunction cell is improved.
