By analogy, the present application is therefore not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

正如背景技术部分所述,提供一种能够有效降低发电量损失的薄膜太阳能电池,成为了本领域技术人员的研究重点。As mentioned in the background section, providing a thin-film solar cell that can effectively reduce the loss of power generation has become a research focus of those skilled in the art.
目前,太阳能电池主要包括硅太阳能电池和薄膜太阳能电池两大类,其中,所述薄膜太阳能电池包括多个电池组件,每个电池组件又包括多个子电池,所述多个子电池之间串联,所述多个电池组件串联,并且薄膜太阳能电池中的电池组件的电流由电池组件中的子电池的最小电流决定,薄膜太阳能电池的电流由各个电池组件的最小电流决定。因此而当电池组件中的子电池产生缺陷或发生遮挡时,导致子电池电流减小时,会导致电池组件电流减小,进而导致薄膜太阳能电池组件电流减小,导致薄膜太阳能电池的发电量降低,使得薄膜太阳能电池发电量损失较大。At present, solar cells mainly include silicon solar cells and thin-film solar cells, wherein the thin-film solar cells include multiple battery components, and each battery component includes multiple sub-cells, and the multiple sub-cells are connected in series, so The plurality of battery components are connected in series, and the current of the battery components in the thin film solar cell is determined by the minimum current of the sub-cells in the battery component, and the current of the thin film solar cell is determined by the minimum current of each battery component. Therefore, when the sub-cells in the battery module are defective or blocked, the current of the sub-cells decreases, which will lead to a decrease in the current of the battery component, which in turn will lead to a decrease in the current of the thin-film solar cell module, resulting in a decrease in the power generation of the thin-film solar cell. Make the thin film solar cell power generation loss larger.
现有薄膜太阳能电池为了抑制由于电池组件中的子电池电流减小,导致的薄膜太阳能电池的电流减小,在各电池组件正负极内置二极管的接线盒,当电池组件中的子电池由于产生缺陷或发生遮挡,导致电流减小,进而导致电池组件电流减小时,位于接线盒内的二极管将会导通,使得传输到此电池组件的电流流经二极管,不流经电池组件,旁路掉整个电池组件。然而,由于现有薄膜太阳能电池当某个电池组件中的一个或多个子电池电流减小,即电池组件发生异常时,会旁路掉整个电池组件,包括电池组件中能够正常工作的子电池,使得现有薄膜太阳能电池当电池组件发生异常,解决异常问题时,会对薄膜太阳能电池的发电量产生较大影响,使得薄膜太阳能电池的发电量损失较大。In order to suppress the current reduction of the thin-film solar cells due to the reduction of the current of the sub-cells in the battery components, the existing thin-film solar cells have junction boxes with built-in diodes in the positive and negative electrodes of each battery component. When defects or shading occurs, resulting in a decrease in current, which in turn leads to a decrease in the current of the battery pack, the diode located in the junction box will be turned on, so that the current transmitted to the battery pack will flow through the diode instead of the battery pack, bypassing the battery pack. entire battery pack. However, due to the existing thin-film solar cells, when the current of one or more sub-cells in a battery component decreases, that is, when the battery component is abnormal, the entire battery component will be bypassed, including the sub-cells that can work normally in the battery component. Therefore, when the battery components of the existing thin-film solar cells are abnormal and the abnormal problem is solved, the power generation of the thin-film solar cells will be greatly affected, and the power generation of the thin-film solar cells will be greatly lost.

需要说明的是,通常情况下,薄膜太阳能电池中各子电池串联,并且串联电流取决于各子电池中的最小电流,当薄膜太阳能电池中的子电池的一个或多个由于产生缺陷或发生遮挡导致子电池电流减小时,会使得薄膜太阳能电池中各子电池的串联电流减小,从而使得薄膜太阳能电池整体电流减小。本申请实 施例所提供的薄膜太阳能电池各个子电池均均反向并联了一个旁路二极管,使得各子电池正常工作,没有由于产生缺陷或发生遮挡导致电流变小时,则与各子电池对应旁路二极管处于截止状态,不发挥旁路作用;若各子电池中一个或多个子电池产生缺陷或发生遮挡,使得该一个或多个子电池电流减小时,会使得子电池两端电压变小,在与电流变小的子电池相对应的旁路二极管两端的产生正向偏压,使得所述旁路二极管的耗尽层变窄,促使所述旁路二极管导通,起到旁路作用。It should be noted that, usually, the sub-cells in a thin-film solar cell are connected in series, and the series current depends on the minimum current in each sub-cell. When the current of the sub-cells is reduced, the series current of each sub-cell in the thin-film solar cell is reduced, thereby reducing the overall current of the thin-film solar cell. Each sub-cell of the thin-film solar cell provided in the embodiment of the present application is connected with a bypass diode in reverse parallel, so that each sub-cell can work normally, and the current becomes smaller due to defects or shading. The circuit diode is in the cut-off state and does not play a bypass role; if one or more sub-batteries in each sub-battery are defective or blocked, the current of the one or more sub-batteries decreases, the voltage at both ends of the sub-battery will decrease, and the A forward bias voltage is generated at both ends of the bypass diode corresponding to the sub-battery with reduced current, so that the depletion layer of the bypass diode is narrowed, and the bypass diode is turned on to play a bypass role.

When the current of the i-th sub-battery decreases and the current of other sub-batteries remains unchanged, the voltage difference between the negative pole of the i+1-th sub-battery and the positive pole of the i-1-th sub-battery will be greater than the voltage difference between the two ends of the i-th sub-battery. A forward bias voltage is generated across the i-th bypass diode. Similarly, if one or more sub-batteries in each sub-battery are defective or blocked, so that when the current of the one or more sub-batteries decreases, a positive current will be generated at both ends of the bypass diode connected in antiparallel with the sub-battery with reduced current. The bias voltage makes the depletion layer of the bypass diode narrow, prompts the bypass diode to conduct, and acts as a bypass, so that the series current of each sub-cell in the thin-film solar cell is transmitted to generate defects or occur When the sub-battery is shaded, it does not flow through the sub-cell that produces defects or shades, but flows through the bypass diodes that are connected in reverse parallel with the sub-cells that generate defects or shade, so as to avoid the series current of each sub-cell in the thin film solar cell Flow through the sub-cells that generate defects or shading, thereby avoiding the series current of multiple cells in the thin-film solar cell from becoming smaller, and helping to improve the thin-film solar cells due to defects or shading of one sub-cell or multiple sub-cells , resulting in the reduction of the overall current of the thin-film solar cell, thereby effectively reducing the loss of power generation of the thin-film solar cell and ensuring the power generation of the thin-film solar cell.
