Description
Printing screen, preparation method thereof and solar cell Technical Field The application relates to the field of photovoltaics, in particular to a printing screen, a preparation method thereof and a solar cell. Background In the manufacture of a solar cell, screen printing is an important link of metallization of a cell, and the screen printing process comprises the following steps of firstly aligning a printing screen onto a silicon wafer to be printed, setting paste to be printed on the surface of the printing screen, enabling the paste to flow to the surface of the silicon wafer through a hollowed-out area of the screen under the pushing of a scraper to form a grid line pattern, and sintering the silicon wafer printed with the grid line pattern to form the grid line. The quality and yield of the metal grid line of the battery piece are directly affected by the printing screen plate used in the screen printing process, and the screen plate is extremely easy to generate problems of local plastic deformation, edge abrasion, opening flaring or microcrack expansion and the like. These physical degradations distort the printed pattern, which is manifested as uneven gate line width, edge burrs, broken lines, or slurry overflow, forming typical defects such as "coarse gate", "jagged line", "false mark", and the like, significantly reducing the battery yield.
