Problems solved by technology

It can cause the power of a component to attenuate by more than 50%, thus affecting the power output of the entire power station
[0003] The reason for the potential-induced attenuation is mainly due to the migration of sodium ions in the packaging material of the battery module - glass and the upper surface layer and the lower surface layer under the action of high voltage: the sodium ions inside the glass migrate towards the solar cell, destroying the battery. p-n junction, resulting in attenuation of power
At present, the hot spot of anti-potential-induced decay technology is silicon oxide / silicon nitride laminated composite film technology. However, in the existing silicon oxide / silicon nitride laminated composite film, the refractive index of silicon oxide layer and silicon nitride layer are the same. lower
Thick silicon oxide and silicon nitride layers with low refractive index make the battery less resistant to potential-induced decay
[0004] There are also silicon dioxide films with a refractive index higher than 2.0 in the prior art. However, the optical matching between the silicon dioxide layer and other anti-reflection films is not very good, and the effect of blocking sodium ions is not ideal. Induced decay performance is not very ideal

Abstract

The invention discloses a solar cell resisting potential-induced degradation. The solar cell comprises a back surface Ag electrode, a back surface Al electric field, P-type silicon, an N-type emitting electrode, a silicon oxide layer, a silicon nitride layer and a front surface Ag electrode which are arranged from the bottom to the top in turn. The refractive index of the silicon oxide layer is 2.35-2.45 and thickness is 1-5nm. The refractive index of the silicon nitride layer is 2.10-2.15 and thickness is 75-85nm. With application of the solar cell, potential-induced degradation resisting performance of the cell is greatly enhanced by the superposition structure of high-refractive-index silicon oxide-high-refractive-index silicon nitride under the premise of enhancing cell conversion efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a solar cell capable of resisting potential-induced attenuation and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Potential Induced Degradation PID (Potential Induced Degradation) or HVS (High Voltage Stress) refers to the phenomenon of output power attenuation caused by leakage current caused by high temperature and high humidity environment of photovoltaic power generation system under high voltage bias. The actual use of some power stations shows that the system voltage seems to have a continuous "potential-induced attenuation" effect on crystalline silicon battery components, and the leakage current caused by the circuit formed by the packaging material (usually the upper surface of EVA and glass) to the component frame, identified as the main cause of the above effects. It can cause the power of a component to attenuate by more than 50%, thus affecting the...
