Problems solved by technology

[0003] In order to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells, silicon wafers need to be chemically treated to make the silicon surface into a suede surface with a certain shape. However, according to the prior art, when polycrystalline silicon solar cells are manufactured After velvet, the reflectance of the obtained silicon wafer is high, generally above 25%, and the uniformity of the velvet surface is poor, which is not conducive to improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of polycrystalline silicon solar cells.

Abstract

The invention discloses a texturing process for a polycrystalline silicon solar cell slice. The texturing process comprises the following steps of (1) spraying a layer of silicon dioxide particles on the surface of a silicon wafer; (2) carrying out primary texturing in a mixed solution containing nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid; (3) deacidifying in a sodium hydroxide solution; (4) carrying out secondary texturing in a mixed solution containing nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid; (5) deacidifying again in a sodium hydroxide solution. The solar cell slice produced by using the process is low in reflectivity, uniform in fabric surface and increased in photoelectric conversion efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of making solar cells, in particular to a texturing process for polycrystalline silicon solar cells. Background technique [0002] In recent years, polycrystalline silicon solar cells have been more and more widely used due to their high conversion efficiency, stable performance and moderate cost, and their output has surpassed that of monocrystalline silicon, occupying a dominant position in the market. [0003] In order to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells, silicon wafers need to be chemically treated to make the silicon surface into a suede surface with a certain shape. However, according to the prior art, when polycrystalline silicon solar cells are manufactured After velvet, the reflectance of the obtained silicon wafer is relatively high, generally more than 25%, and the uniformity of the velvet surface is poor, which is not conducive to improving the photoelectric conversion efficie...
