Abstract

The invention discloses a method for detecting microdefects of quasi monocrystalline silicon sheets. The method includes a manually and mechanically polishing step of manually and mechanically polishing aquasi monocrystalline silicon sheet to be etched and flushing the quasi monocrystalline silicon sheet with deionized water; a chemical etch polishing step of chemically etching and polishing the silicon sheet subjected to the mechanical polishing and rinsing the silicon sheet with deionized water; a preferential microdefect etching step of carrying out preferential microdefect etching on the silicon sheet subjected to the chemically etching and polishing, rinsing the silicon sheet with deionized water and drying the silicon sheet in a baking oven; and a microdefect observation process of carrying out minority carrier lifetime and iron-boron opposite scanning for the etched silicon chip, observing the minority carrier lifetime scanning color distribution by a metallographic microscope, accurately positioning the microdefect positions, classifying the defect types, positioning and cutting the silicon chip into pieces, and marking the pieces. The method is rapid, accurate, energy-saving, environmental-friendly, pollution-free and highly practical.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of production and quality control of photovoltaic quasi-single-crystal silicon wafers, in particular to a detection method for micro-defects of quasi-single-crystal silicon wafers. Background technique [0002] With the continuous update of photovoltaic technology, casting quasi-single crystal technology, as a new technology, takes into account the advantages of casting polycrystalline silicon and Czochralski single crystal silicon technology. On the basis of casting polysilicon equipment, seed crystals can be laid through the bottom of the crucible, and quasi-single crystals can be grown by directional solidification, and then quasi-single crystals can be wire-cut into quasi-single crystal silicon wafers. At present, the efficiency of solar cells made of high-purity, low-defect quasi-single crystal silicon wafers produced in mass production is 1-2% higher than that of cast polycrystalline silicon cells on average, wh...
