Problems solved by technology

The technical route is difficult and the process is lengthy and complicated; in addition, on a thin flexible crystalline silicon substrate, the technical process of making the battery structure is incompatible with conventional non-flexible crystalline silicon batteries, resulting in high manufacturing costs
[0004] The thickness of flexible crystalline silicon is relatively thin (5-50um), and the absorption of long-wavelength photons in the solar spectrum is relatively weak, resulting in a relatively low short-circuit current density, and its conversion efficiency, open-circuit voltage, etc. are compared with conventional thickness ( >180um) crystalline silicon cells have declined

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of a flexible high-light-trapping-property radial-junction heterojunction efficient crystalline silicon solar cell. The method comprises the following steps: (1) preparing a crystalline silicon chip of which the thickness is 80-500 microns and the resistivity is 0.1-1,000 ohm.cm for serving as a substrate; (2) making a solar cell front side structure or semi-finished product front side structure on the crystalline silicon substrate; (3) protecting the made front side structure, and thinning the substrate from the back side: making a protective layer of 100 nanometers to 100 microns on the made solar cell front side structure or semi-finished product front side structure or making a border on the back side at the same time for protecting, thinning the crystalline silicon substrate from the back side by 5-50 microns; removing the protective layer or removing the protective layer together with a back side border protective layer; (4) making a back side structure: depositing a heterojunction silicon-based passivation layer of 2-100 nanometers and a back side field of 2-50 nanometers on the back side. By adopting a heterojunction structure, the conversion efficiency, open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current and the like of the cell are increased greatly; since the crystalline silicon with excellent photoelectric performance is taken as an adsorption base region of a flexible cell, high conversion efficiency is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a flexible high-light trapping radial junction heterojunction high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cell and a preparation method thereof. technical background [0002] Flexible solar cells based on amorphous silicon have low conversion efficiency due to the constraints of material quality and their own photoelectric properties. [0003] The technical route of flexible solar cells based on crystalline silicon is to first use methods such as epitaxial growth to prepare flexible crystalline silicon substrates, and then complete the preparation of cells on it. As a result, the technical route is difficult and the process is lengthy and complicated; in addition, on a thin flexible crystalline silicon substrate, the technical process of making the battery structure is incompatible with conventional non-flexible crystalline silicon batteries, resulting in high manufa...
