Problems solved by technology

However, up to now, only a-Si:H / MoOx / ITO hole-selective passivation contacts have been successfully applied to the front end of SHJ batteries, and some progress has been made, but the thermal stability of this structure is relatively low. Poor, the passivation contact performance needs to be improved; while the electronically selective passivation contacts developed are all used on the back end of crystalline silicon cells, and usually only a few nanometers are stacked with metal electrodes, due to the near-infrared absorption loss caused by the excitation of surface plasmon elements Larger; a few reported highly transparent electronically selective passivation contacts, such as a-Si:H / TiO2 / ITO, have poor passivation contact performance (especially large contact resistance), Device conversion efficiency is very low

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to an electron selective passivation contact structure, a solar cell and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] The main theme of the development of solar photovoltaic technology is to improve the conversion efficiency and reduce the manufacturing cost, thereby reducing the cost of electricity (LCOE). At present, the mainstream products in the market are PERC cells (Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell) based on high temperature doped homojunction, whose conversion efficiency limit is about 24%, which is mainly limited by the high carrier recombination loss at the crystalline silicon-electrode contact interface. , as well as Auger recombination, band gap narrowing and free carrier absorption induced by heavy doping. Therefore, reducing the carrier recombination loss at the crystalline silicon-electrode contact interface and reducing or removing the doping process are t...
