Problems solved by technology

[0008] In order to solve the problems of high doping concentration on the surface of the existing PERC+LDSE cells, weak regional diffusion controllability, poor blue light response of the cell, and low minority carrier lifetime, the present invention provides a regional layered deposition and diffusion process. The diffusion process adopts regional layered diffusion control, so that there is a uniform phosphosilicate glass layer on the surface of the silicon wafer, which is conducive to the heavy doping of laser SE, thereby improving the ohmic contact and good contact performance of the cell, and making the emitter region have a Low doping concentration and high-quality PN junction, so that the cell has the characteristics of excellent blue light response and high minority carrier lifetime, and finally improves the conversion efficiency of the cell

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of crystalline silicon solar cells, and provides a regional layered deposition diffusion process in order to solve the problems of over-high surface dopingconcentration, weak regional diffusion controllability, poor cell blue light response and short minority carrier lifetime of an existing PERC+LDSE cell sheet. The process comprises the following steps: (1) pretreatment of a silicon wafer; (2) pre-oxidizing; (3) low-temperature low-concentration phosphorus source deposition; (4) high-temperature medium-concentration phosphorus source deposition; (5) forming of a PN junction; (6) depositing of a low-temperature high-concentration phosphorus source; (7) cooling, pushing of a quartz boat, and taking-out of the silicon wafer. Regional layered diffusion control is adopted in the process, so that a uniform phosphorosilicate glass layer is formed on the surface of a silicon wafer, the laser SE heavy doping is facilitated, and the ohmic contact and good contact performance of a battery piece are improved; and the emitter region has low doping concentration and high-quality PN junctions, so that the battery piece has the characteristics of excellent blue light response and long minority carrier lifetime, and finally, the conversion efficiency of the battery piece is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crystalline silicon solar cells, in particular to a regional layered deposition and diffusion process. Background technique [0002] The cost reduction brought about by the iteration of crystalline silicon solar cell technology has gradually become the main driving force for the development of the industry. In the past two years, the photovoltaic industry cell technology has undergone a transformation from conventional BSF cells → PERC cells → PERC+LDSE cells, of which PERC+LDSE cells The process flow is: texturing→diffusion→laser SE→etching→back passivation→front PECVD→back PECVD→laser slotting→screen printingsintering→testing. Only one laser SE process is added before the process, and the rest of the process remains unchanged. [0003] The laser SE process uses the phosphosilicate glass layer produced by the diffusion process as the dopant source, and uses the thermal effect of the laser to melt the s...
