Reel-to-reel production technology is utilized, and stainless steel with the thickness of 25 microns to 100 microns is taken as a substrate. Firstly, a back electrode molybdenum layer is deposited on the substrate, and secondly, a three-step co-evaporation method is utilized for depositing a CIGS absorbing layer. In the first step, when the temperature of the substrate is 300 DEG C to 400 DEG C, elements of In, Ga and Se are evaporated together; in the second step, when the temperature of the substrate is 550 DEG C to 580 DEG C, elements of Cu and Se are evaporated together till a thin film is rich in copper; in the third step, when the temperature of the substrate is 550 DEG C to 580 DEG C, elements of In, Ga and Se are evaporated together, and a CIGS thin film meeting a chemical measuring ratio is finally obtained. Mass industrialized production of CIGS solar cells is achieved with the reel-to-reel production technology, and the soft CIGS solar cells which are good in conversion efficiency are manufactured with the manufacturing technology of the soft CIGS thin film solar cell absorbing layer.

Description

Flexible CIGS absorption layer of thin film solar cell preparation technology
Technical field
The present invention is a kind of preparation technology of flexible CIGS thin-film solar cell absorbed layer, belongs to the photoelectric cell field, more precisely belongs to the photovoltaic solar field of batteries.
Background technology
As the solar cell of clear energy sources develop rapidly in recent years thin-film solar cells because of have cost low, can be mass-produced and be easy to the developing direction that advantage such as integrated will become following solar cell.Wherein copper-indium-galliun-selenium film solar cell has the high absorption coefficient of light, high transformation efficiency, adjustable energy gap, high stability, stronger advantages such as capability of resistance to radiation, be considered to third generation solar cell main material (first generation monocrystalline silicon, second generation polysilicon, amorphous silicon), and existing procucts enter solar cell market.
The highest transformation efficiency of small sample CIGS thin-film solar cells reaches 19.9% in March, 2008, adopts the evaporation preparation of three steps by U.S. regenerative resource laboratory.At present, the conversion efficiency peak of CIGS class solar cell be German ZSW in August, 2010 announce 20.3% but its area has only 0.5cm 2Because Copper Indium Gallium Selenide solar cell element proportioning is difficult to control, uniformity of film is difficult to characteristics such as realization, large-area CIGS thin film solar cell prepares that difficulty is very big, conversion efficiency is on the low side and manufacturing equipment is expensive.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is a kind of preparation technology of flexible CIGS thin-film solar cell absorbed layer.Utilize the preparation method of volume to volume, can realize the production in enormous quantities of CIGS thin-film solar cell.Adopt described preparation method can improve the stability of large tracts of land CIGS thin film preparation process and the equal and property of film.Adopt the method for winding type, by backrush and rolling combination, utilize the method for three step coevaporations, the rate of finished products height of the film quality height of preparation, good uniformity, battery is the optimal path of industrial mass production.
The present invention is a kind of preparation technology of flexible CIGS thin-film solar cell absorbed layer.At first at the bottom of flexible stainless steel lining, utilize magnetically controlled sputter method sputter separator chromium and bottom electrode layer molybdenum.Adopt the technology of volume to volume then, utilize the method evaporation absorbed layer CIGS of three step coevaporations.
The preparation technology of flexible CIGS thin-film solar cell absorbed layer.Three-step approach may further comprise the steps:
At first, when 300~400 ℃ of underlayer temperatures, coevaporation In, Ga and Se element form (In 1-xGa x) 2Se 3Initialization layer, element ratio is that Se/ (In+Ga) flow-rate ratio is greater than 3 in the preparation process.
(In,Ga)+Se→(In 1-xGa x) 2Se 3
Secondly, when 550~580 ℃ of underlayer temperatures, coevaporation Cu and Se element adopt constant power heated substrate, finish this and go on foot in preparation when substrate temperature has quick decline, can form the CIGS film of rich copper.
(In 1-xGa x) 2Se 3+Cu+Se→Cu(InGa)Se
After the ratio of component of Cu and Se reaches the amount that generates CIGS, continue deposition Cu and Se, when temperature is higher than 523 °, CuxSe exists with liquid form, it has stronger thermal radiation, make the thermal radiation of substrate greater than absorption, cause underlayer temperature to descend fast, therefore can be with substrate fast cooling point as second end point that goes on foot.
At last, keep the temperature that sinks to the bottom in second step, evaporate In, Ga, Se element at the film of rich a little copper, form the film of rich In at film surface, and finally obtain meeting the CuIn of required stoichiometric proportion 1-xGa xSe 2Film.
