Description
Manufacturing method of back contact heterojunction solar cell with low laser damage Technical Field The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a back contact heterojunction solar cell with low laser damage. Background The SunPower in the United states is firstly to internationally push out the production of back contact batteries and components, and based on the unique advantages of the back contact technology in terms of power generation efficiency and appearance, the Panasonic heterojunction department starts from 2014 and sequentially inputs the development of heterojunction low-temperature back contact technology, but so far, the back contact technology has a complex process route, frequent battery surface contact damages the surface passivation, which is unfavorable for reducing the production cost of the batteries and improving the mass production efficiency, and the absolute efficiency of the batteries is estimated to be lower by 0.2 percent when one printing technology is added, and the technology of opening a back electrode is mainly based on ink printing and chemical etching, so that the space for reducing the cost is limited. The key of the back contact technology in mass production popularization is to reduce production steps and efficiency damage caused by mechanical contact, and a large number of applications of laser openings can achieve the purpose. However, since the heterojunction based on amorphous silicon is a low temperature process (lower than 200 degrees), the grown film is more sensitive to the thermal effect of laser, and how to reduce the thermal attenuation effect caused by the laser opening is one of the important development problems of the back contact technology.

The aim of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme: A method for manufacturing a back contact heterojunction solar cell with low laser damage comprises the following steps of A, arranging a first conductive type film layer with a surface covered by an insulating film layer on a part of a first main surface of a semiconductor substrate to form a first conductive region of a first conductive type; the specific method of the step A is that, A1, sequentially forming a first conductive film layer, a first insulating layer and a laser absorption sacrificial layer on a first main surface of a semiconductor substrate; a2, removing the laser absorption sacrificial layer in the area except the first conductive area by adopting a laser etching mode; and a3, removing the first insulating layer and the first conductive type film layer which are not covered by the laser absorption sacrificial layer in a chemical etching mode so as to form a first conductive area with the insulating film layer attached to the surface. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that: (1) Through setting up laser absorption sacrificial layer, not only can absorb laser, reduce the damage of laser to first conductive region rete, can regard as the etching mask moreover to get rid of the first conductive type rete beyond the first conductive region, and protect the first insulating layer of first conductive region. (2) The second conductive film layer covering the first conductive area is only subjected to laser opening as low as possible, so that the conductive contact between the first conductive area and the electrode is ensured, the working procedures can be reduced, the laser damage is controlled, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is improved. (3) The N-type conductive film layer adopts an oxygen-doped or non-oxygen-doped microcrystalline layer, and the carrier mobility and the effective doping of the N-type conductive microcrystalline layer are obviously changed relative to those of the N-type amorphous film layer, so that the transverse collecting capability of electrons of the N-type collecting electrode can be greatly improved, and the aperture opening ratio of the N-type electrode can be greatly reduced.
