Abstract

The invention provides a silicon wafer, a cleaning method thereof and a solar cell, and the cleaning method comprises the following steps: (1) oxidizing a silicon wafer with greasy dirt on the surface to obtain an oxidized silicon wafer; (2) introducing etching gas, and etching the oxidized silicon wafer obtained in the step (1) to obtain an etched silicon wafer; and (3) pickling the etched silicon wafer obtained in the step (2) to complete cleaning of the silicon wafer. According to the method, organic matter on the surface of the silicon wafer is effectively removed through the technological methods of oxidation, etching and pickling solution cleaning, the yield of manufactured silicon wafers is increased, and the rework proportion is reduced. Through the etching process, the organic matters on the surface of the silicon wafer are selectively oxidized and removed, and other parts on the surface of the silicon wafer are not influenced, so that the quality of the silicon wafer is ensured, and the loss is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and relates to a method for cleaning a silicon wafer, in particular to a silicon wafer, its cleaning method and a solar cell. Background technique [0002] In the production and manufacture of solar cells, one of the biggest ways to generate benefits is to increase the pass rate and high-quality rate of products and reduce costs; reducing production costs can be accomplished by improving material costs, increasing production capacity, and reducing single-chip costs. To improve the high-quality rate, it is necessary to improve the process method and improve the quality. One of the common problems in solar production lines is that organic substances such as fingerprints and oil stains adhere to the surface of silicon wafers. The normal cleaning process cannot clean the organic matter, and the phenomenon becomes more and more obvious after cleaning, which affects the quality of the product. In...
