Therefore, development of a selective electrode is essential to improve the short-wave response of the non-electrode region, reduce the recombination rate, and form a good ohmic contact in the electrode region, thereby improving the fill factor.

In the prior art, a laser doping mode is also provided, and laser is directly adopted for doping on a boron-silicon glass (BSG) layer after boron diffusion is performed on a silicon wafer, but due to the limitation of the existing laser doping technology, the difference between a doping region and a non-laser doping region is small, so that the improvement of the cell efficiency is not obvious.

In one example, the size of the positive electrode pattern mask needs to be determined according to the requirements of the grid lines of the battery.
And secondly, removing the natural oxide layer of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10 by using the first solution.
In one example, the first solution is a hydrogen fluoride solution.
And thirdly, corroding the boron diffusion layer 20 in the non-electrode area on the front surface of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10 by using the first mixed solution to form a P + + doped area 80 in the electrode area on the front surface of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10 and a P + doped area 90 in the non-electrode area.
In one example, the sheet resistance of the P + + doped region 80 ranges from 65 Ω · sq to 80 Ω · sq, and the sheet resistance of the P + doped region 90 ranges from 160 Ω · sq to 180 Ω · sq.

the hydrochloric acid solution is used for removing metal ions remained on the surface of the substrate by the potassium hydroxide solution, and the hydrochloric acid solution is used for completely removing the BSG layer on the front surface of the substrate, so that the passivation layer 100 and the anti-reflection layer 110 are formed on the front surface of the substrate in the following process.

By spraying a positive electrode pattern mask in the electrode area on the front surface of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10, the electrode area can be effectively protected from corrosion to form a high-concentration boron-doped P + + doped area 80, and the high-concentration boron doping in the electrode area is beneficial to reducing the square resistance to form good ohmic contact and improving the filling factor of the cell; the non-electrode area is corroded by the mixed solution of hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride due to the fact that no spraying mask is arranged, so that a low-concentration boron-doped P + doped area 90 is formed, low-concentration boron doping of the non-electrode area is beneficial to improving blue light response of a short wave area, reducing defect density of an emitting electrode and reducing recombination rate, and further photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell is improved.
In step S160, a passivation layer 100 and an anti-reflection layer 110 are sequentially formed on the front surface of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10.
In one example, the passivation layer 90 is an aluminum oxide layer, the passivation layer 100 has a thickness of 1nm to 2nm, the anti-reflection layer 110 is a silicon nitride layer, and the anti-reflection layer 110 has a thickness of 75nm to 80 nm.
In step S170, a front electrode 120 and a back electrode 130 are respectively formed on the front surface and the back surface of the N-type silicon wafer substrate 10 to obtain the N-type selective emitter solar cell, which specifically includes: and screen-printing front electrode 120 slurry and back electrode 130 slurry, and sintering at a high temperature to form the front electrode 120 in ohmic contact with the P + + doped region 80 and the back electrode 130 in ohmic contact with the N + doped layer to obtain the N-type selective emitter solar cell.
In one example, the front electrode 120 paste is silver-aluminum paste, the back electrode 130 paste is silver paste, and the sintering temperature is 750 ℃ to 800 ℃.
Fig. 3 is a structural diagram of an N-type selective emitter solar cell according to an embodiment of the present invention. The N-type selective emitter solar cell shown in fig. 3 is an N-type selective emitter solar cell prepared by the above-described preparation method (i.e., the preparation methods shown in fig. 1 and 2). Referring to fig. 3, the N-type selective emitter solar cell sequentially includes: a front electrode 120, an anti-reflection layer 110, a passivation layer 100, a P + doped region 90, a P + + doped region 80, an N-type silicon substrate 10, a tunnel oxide layer 30, a polysilicon layer 40, a silicon nitride layer 50, and a back electrode 130.
The front electrode 120 respectively penetrates through the anti-reflection layer 110 and the passivation layer 100, and forms ohmic contact with the P + + doped region 80; the back electrode 130 passes through the silicon nitride layer 50 to form an ohmic contact with the polysilicon layer 40(N + doped layer).
In summary, according to the N-type selective emitter solar cell and the manufacturing method thereof in the embodiments of the invention, after the N-type silicon wafer substrate having the front surface subjected to the boron diffusion treatment and the back surface formed with the polysilicon layer and the silicon nitride protective layer is subjected to the alkali treatment to remove the boron diffusion layer in the non-electrode region on the front surface of the substrate by the spray mask protection and the chemical corrosion method, the high-concentration boron doping in the electrode region and the low-concentration boron doping in the non-electrode region are realized to form the P + +/P + selective emitter structure, so that the front surface of the cell with the structure can be ensured to realize the selective emitter doping without affecting the back surface structural effect. The doping concentration of boron in a non-electrode contact area is low, so that the defect density of an emitting electrode is reduced, the recombination rate is reduced, and the blue light effect of a short wave zone is increased; the doping concentration of boron in the electrode area is high, so that good ohmic contact is realized, the filling factor of the cell is improved, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell is improved. And the preparation of the P + +/P + selective emitter structure is completed after the polysilicon layer is formed, so that the influence on the square resistance of the P + +/P + selective emitter structure when the polysilicon is removed by subsequent cleaning and plating 60 is avoided.
In addition, the preparation method of the N-type selective emitter solar cell provided by the invention does not need high raw material cost, has a simple preparation process, and is easy to control boron doping concentration, namely sheet resistance difference, between the P + + doping area and the P + doping area 20, so that the P + + doping area and the P + doping area with large sheet resistance difference are obtained, and the efficiency of the solar cell is further improved. Therefore, the preparation method of the N-type selective emitter solar cell provided by the invention has the advantages of simple preparation process and low cost, can effectively improve the efficiency and performance of the solar cell, and is suitable for mass production and stable production of the cell.
