Description

太陽能電池串及其製造方法    Solar cell string and manufacturing method thereof   

本發明是有關於一種太陽能電池串及其製造方法,且特別是有關於一種太陽能電池串,在其之匯流電極與導電焊帶之間加入一單面金屬膠帶。 The invention relates to a solar cell string and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a solar cell string. A single-sided metal tape is added between a bus electrode and a conductive ribbon.

請參考圖1,習知太陽能電池模組9包括許多材料,例如正面玻璃板91、多個太陽能電池90、封裝材93、導電焊帶(ribbon)92、背面板材94等。目前該些太陽能電池90是以導電焊帶92作為串焊連接之用。為了焊接製程,在該些太陽能電池90之正面903及背面904都需設計有匯流電極(busbar)9031、9041,該導電焊帶92分別焊接於該正面903及背面904之匯流電極9031、9041的區域。焊接完該太陽能電池90之正面903後,須將該導電焊帶92轉折,焊接下一片太陽能電池90之背面904,重複數次,才算完成一串太陽能電池90的串焊製程。 Referring to FIG. 1, the conventional solar cell module 9 includes many materials, such as a front glass plate 91, a plurality of solar cells 90, a packaging material 93, a conductive ribbon 92, and a back plate 94. Currently, these solar cells 90 use conductive welding tapes 92 for serial welding connection. For the welding process, busbars 9031 and 9041 need to be designed on the front side 903 and the back side 904 of the solar cells 90. The conductive welding tape 92 is welded to the bus electrodes 9031 and 9041 of the front side 903 and the back side 904, respectively. region. After welding the front surface 903 of the solar cell 90, the conductive welding tape 92 must be turned, and the back surface 904 of the next solar cell 90 should be welded and repeated several times to complete the string welding process of a string of solar cells 90.

然而,當該導電焊帶92焊接於該匯流電極的區域時,該匯流電極9031、9041上的銅與該導電焊帶92上的錫焊料(solder)會形成金屬共晶。由於形成金屬共晶的反應過於劇烈,因此可能導致該太陽能電池90之矽基板破裂的發生,進而降低該匯流電極9031、9041與該導電焊帶92之間的附著力。 However, when the conductive solder tape 92 is soldered to the area of the bus electrode, the copper on the bus electrode 9031, 9041 and the tin solder on the conductive solder tape 92 will form a metal eutectic. Because the reaction of forming the metal eutectic is too violent, it may cause the silicon substrate of the solar cell 90 to crack, thereby reducing the adhesion between the bus electrodes 9031, 9041 and the conductive bonding tape 92.

因此,便有需要一種太陽能電池串及其製造方法,能克服上述問題。 Therefore, there is a need for a solar cell string and a method for manufacturing the same that can overcome the above problems.

本發明之一目的是提供一種太陽能電池串,在其之匯流電極與導電焊帶之間加入一單面金屬膠帶。 It is an object of the present invention to provide a solar cell string in which a single-sided metal tape is added between a bus electrode and a conductive bonding tape.

在該匯流電極與該導電焊帶之間加入本發明之單面金屬膠帶仍具有下列功能:應用在太陽能電池片之導電金屬線為銅電鍍製程時,可防止該匯流電極上的銅與該導電焊帶上的錫焊料在形成金屬共晶時,因反應過於劇烈而導致矽基板破裂的發生。因此,本發明之單面金屬膠帶可作為該匯流電極與該導電焊帶之間焊接時的緩衝,以提升該匯流電極與該導電焊帶之間較大的附著力。 Adding the single-sided metal tape of the present invention between the bus electrode and the conductive solder tape still has the following functions: When the conductive metal wire applied to the solar cell is a copper plating process, the copper on the bus electrode and the conductive material can be prevented. When the solder on the solder ribbon forms a metal eutectic, the silicon substrate cracks due to the reaction being too violent. Therefore, the single-sided metal tape of the present invention can be used as a buffer when welding between the bus electrode and the conductive welding tape, so as to improve the larger adhesion between the bus electrode and the conductive welding tape.

在該匯流電極1031與該導電焊帶11之間加入本發明之單面金屬膠帶12具有下列功能:第一、應用在太陽能電池片之導電金屬線以銅電鍍製程形成時,可防止該匯流電極1031上的銅與該導電焊帶11上的錫焊料在形成金屬共晶時,因反應過於劇烈而導致矽基板破裂的發生。因此,本發明之單面金屬膠帶12可作為該匯流電極1031與該導電焊帶11之間焊接時的緩衝,以提升該匯流電極1031與該導電焊帶11之間較大的附著力。第二、應用在導電金屬線為以網印銀漿再燒結而形成時,在該匯流電極1031與該導電焊帶11之間加入該單面金屬膠帶12,搭配使用具有較細銀線的匯流電極,不但可以維持該匯流電極1031與該導電焊帶11之間的拉力(亦即附著力),同時可以減少銀漿的使用。 Adding the single-sided metal tape 12 of the present invention between the bus electrode 1031 and the conductive solder tape 11 has the following functions: First, the bus electrode can be prevented when the conductive metal wire applied to a solar cell is formed by a copper plating process. When the copper on 1031 and the tin solder on the conductive bonding tape 11 form a metal eutectic, the silicon substrate is cracked due to the reaction being too violent. Therefore, the single-sided metal tape 12 of the present invention can be used as a buffer during welding between the bus electrode 1031 and the conductive welding tape 11, so as to improve the larger adhesion between the bus electrode 1031 and the conductive welding tape 11. Second, when the conductive metal wire is formed by re-sintering the screen-printed silver paste, the single-sided metal tape 12 is added between the bus electrode 1031 and the conductive solder tape 11, and the bus with a thinner silver wire is used in combination.

The single-sided metal tape 12 is divided into a plurality of sections attached to different regions of the bus electrode 1031.

The second solar cell 10 b includes a second electrode layer 104 on the second surface 102. The conductive bonding tape 11 is directly contacted and attached (eg, welded) to the second electrode layer 104. The single-sided metal tape 12 of the present invention can be used only on a side with poor adhesion, such as a bus electrode on a back surface having a polished surface. When the bus electrode on the front side with the roughened surface meets the adhesion, the single-sided metal tape 12 of the present invention may not be used to ensure the process efficiency, thereby avoiding an increase in cost.

前述說明是以具有粗糙化正面及拋光化背面的單面受光式太陽能電池為例,但本發明亦可用於雙面都是粗糙化或雙面都是拋光表面的太陽能電池結構,更進一步而言,這些結構的太陽能電池亦可能因為電極材料、製程或其他因素而使正面及背面兩個表面對導電焊帶的附著力不同,同樣可只使用單面金屬膠帶於附著力較差的一面,提高整個電池串的可靠度而避免增加太多成本,或者,利用本發明的焊接結構,業者可選擇原本因附著力不佳而無法用於量產的電極製程或導電漿料配方,可提高設計的彈性,以及進一步減少成本。 The foregoing description is an example of a single-sided light-receiving solar cell having a roughened front surface and a polished back surface, but the present invention can also be applied to a solar cell structure with both roughened sides or polished surfaces on both sides, and more specifically The solar cells of these structures may also have different adhesion to the conductive tape on the front and back surfaces due to electrode materials, manufacturing processes, or other factors. It is also possible to use only single-sided metal tape on the side with poor adhesion to improve the overall The reliability of the battery string avoids adding too much cost, or, with the welding structure of the present invention, the industry can choose an electrode process or a conductive paste formulation that could not be used for mass production due to poor adhesion, which can improve the flexibility of the design , And further reduce costs.
