Technical field
The present invention relates to crystal silicon and film composite type solar cell, crystal silicon and germanium particularly with transition layer structure The structure design and its manufacture method of the compound unijunction PIN solar cells of silicon thin film.
Background technology
Since French scientist AE.Becquerel 1839 find opto-electronic conversion phenomenon after, 1883 first with Semiconductor selenium is born for the solar cell of substrate.Nineteen forty-six RuSSell obtains the patent of first solar cell (US.2,402,662), its photoelectric transformation efficiency is only 1%.Until 1954, the research of AT&T Labs was just found that doping Silica-base material there is high photoelectric transformation efficiency.This research is laid a good foundation for modern sun energy battery industry.1958 Year, Haffman Utilities Electric Co.s of the U.S. have loaded onto first piece of solar panel for the satellite in the U.S., and its photoelectric transformation efficiency is about 6%.From this, the solar cell research and production of monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon substrate have quick development, solar energy in 2006 The yield of battery has reached 2000 megawatts, and the photoelectric transformation efficiency of monocrystaline silicon solar cell reaches 24.7%, commercial product 22.7% is reached, the photoelectric transformation efficiency of polysilicon solar cell reaches 20.3%, and commercial product reaches 15.3%.
On the other hand, the Zhores Alferov of the Soviet Union in 1970 have developed the race of high efficiency III-V of first GaAs base Solar cell.Due to prepare III-V race's thin-film material key technology MOCVD (metal organic chemical vapor deposition) until Just successfully researched and developed within 1980 or so, the applied solar energy Battery Company in the U.S. was successfully applied to the technology in 1988 and prepared Photoelectric transformation efficiency is III-V race's solar cell of 17% GaAs bases.Thereafter, III-V race's material by substrate of GaAs Doping techniques, the technology of preparing of plural serial stage solar cell obtained extensive research and development, its photoelectric transformation efficiency 19% was reached in 1993,24% is reached within 2000,26% is reached within 2002, reaches within 2005 28%, reach 30% within 2007. 2007, big III-V race solar cell company Emcore and SpectroLab in the U.S. two produced the race's sun of high efficiency III-V Energy commercial product, its photoelectric conversion rate is up to 38%, and this two company occupies the 95% of global III-V race's solar cell market, American National Energy Research Institute announces that they successfully have developed its photoelectric transformation efficiency is up to 50% plural serial stage III-V Race's solar cell.Because the substrate of this kind of solar cell is expensive, equipment and process costs are high, are mainly used in aviation, boat My god, the field such as national defence and military project.
External solar cell research and production, can substantially be divided into three phases, that is, have three generations's solar cell.
First generation solar cell, substantially using the solar cell of monocrystalline silicon and the single constituent element of polycrystalline silicon substrate as generation Table.Only pay attention to improve photoelectric transformation efficiency and large-scale production, there is high energy consumption, labour intensive, unfriendly to environment The problems such as with high cost, its price for producing electricity is about 5~6 times of coal electricity;Until, the production of first generation solar cell in 2007 Amount still accounts for the 89% of global solar battery total amount, expert, it is expected that first generation solar cell will progressively be eliminated after 10 years And as history.
Second generation solar cell is thin-film solar cells, is the new technology grown up in recent years, it pays attention to The energy consumption and process costs in production process are reduced, brainstrust is called green photovoltaic industry.With monocrystalline silicon and the polysilicon sun Energy battery is compared, and the consumption of its film HIGH-PURITY SILICON is its 1%, meanwhile, low-temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition deposition Technology, electroplating technology, printing technology is extensively studied and is applied to the production of thin-film solar cells.Due to using low cost Glass, stainless steel thin slice, macromolecule substrate greatly reduces production cost as baseplate material, and is conducive to large-scale Production.The material of the successful thin-film solar cells researched and developed is at present:CdTe, its photoelectric transformation efficiency is 16.5%, and business Industry product is about 7%;CulnSe, its photoelectric transformation efficiency is 19.5%, and commercial product is 11%;Non-crystalline silicon and microcrystal silicon, its Photoelectric transformation efficiency is 8.3~15%, and commercial product is 7~13.3%, in recent years, due to the thin film transistor (TFT) of LCD TV Research and development, non-crystalline silicon and microcrystalline silicon film technology have significant progress, and have been applied to silicon-based film solar cells.Brainstrust , it is expected that because thin-film solar cells has low cost, high efficiency, the ability of large-scale production, following 5~10 Year, thin-film solar cells is by the main product as global solar battery.
Focus around thin-film solar cells research is to develop efficient, inexpensive, long-life photovoltaic solar electricity Pond.They should have following feature:Low cost, high efficiency, long-life, material source are abundant, nontoxic, and scientists are relatively had an optimistic view of Amorphous silicon thin-film solar cell.
The thin-film solar cells for accounting for lion's share at present is non-crystal silicon solar cell, usually pin structure batteries, window Mouthful layer is the P-type non-crystalline silicon of boron-doping, then deposit one layer undoped with i layers, the N-type non-crystalline silicon of one layer of p-doped of redeposition, and plating Electrode.
Amorphous silicon battery typically uses PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition --- plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) method make the gases such as high purity silane decompose deposition. Such a manufacture craft, continuous in production can be completed in multiple vacuum deposition chamber, to realize production in enormous quantities.Due to deposition point Solve temperature it is low, can on glass, stainless steel plate, ceramic wafer, flexible plastic sheet deposition film, it is easy to large area metaplasia produce, cost It is relatively low.The structure of the amorphous silica-based solar cell prepared on a glass substrate is:Glass/TCO/p-a-SiC:H/i-a-Si: H/n-a-Si:H/Al, the structure of the amorphous silica-based solar cell prepared on stainless steel lining bottom is:SS/ZnO/n-a-Si:H/ i-a-Si(Ge):H/p-na-Si:H/ITO/Al.
Improve the efficiency of light absorption that the maximally effective approach of battery efficiency is to try to improve battery.For silica-base film, adopt It is inevitable approach with low bandgap material.The low bandgap material used such as Uni-Solar companies for a-SiGe (amorphous silicon germanium) alloy, Their a-Si/a-SiGe/a-SiGe three-knot laminated batteries, small area battery (0.25cm2) efficiency reaches 15.2%, stable effect Rate is up to 13%, 900cm2Component efficiency is up to 11.4%, and stabilization efficiency is up to 10.2%, and product efficiency reaches 7%-8%.
Internationally recognized amorphous silicon/microcrystalline silicon tandem solar cell is the next-generation technology of silicon-base thin-film battery, is to realize The important technology approach of high efficiency, low cost thin-film solar cells, is the new industrialization direction of hull cell.Japan three in 2005 Water chestnut heavy industry and the amorphous silicon/microcrystalline silicon tandem battery component sample efficiencies of Zhong Yuan chemical companies respectively reach 11.1% (40cm × 50cm) with 13.5% (91cm × 45cm).Japanese Sharp company in September, 2007 realizes amorphous silicon/microcrystalline silicon tandem solar-electricity Pond industrialization production (25MW, efficiency 8%-8.5%), European Oerlikon (Ao Likang) company, the U.S. AppliedMaterials (Applied Materials), it is also positive to research and develop Product-level non-crystalline silicon/micro-crystalline silicon cell key manufacture.
The country, Nankai University is carried out using national " 15 ", the project of Eleventh Five-Year Plan 973 and the project of Eleventh Five-Year Plan 863 to rely on Microcrystalline silicon materials and the research of amorphous silicon/microcrystalline silicon tandem battery.Small area micro-crystalline silicon cell efficiency is up to 9.36%, non-crystalline silicon/micro- Crystal silicon laminated cell efficiency is up to 11.8%, 10cm × 10cm component efficiencies up to 9.7%.Now just closed with Fujian Jun Shi energy companies Make, carry out the research and development of square meter level amorphous silicon/microcrystalline silicon tandem battery key equipment and cell manufacturing techniques.
