The present disclosure relates to a method for preparing nano-textured surface on single side of a silicon wafer, including the following steps: (1) superimposing two silicon wafers to obtain a first silicon wafer superimposition structure; the side on which the silicon wafers is superimposed is recorded as an attached surface, and the side exposed outside is recorded as an exposed surface; and (2) performing nano-textured surface etching on the first silicon wafer superimposition structure; and providing each silicon wafer with nano-textured surface on the exposed surface and a nano-textured surface etched strip on the edge of the attached surface. In the present disclosure, while the nano-textured surface etching is performed, the edge of the attached surface is etched with nano-textured surface by selecting a specific etching rate, which reduces the pulling force for detaching the wafers and reduces the fragmentation rate during the detaching process.

Texturization method of silicon wafers, product obtained therefrom and preparation method of solar cells

A method for producing a textured structure of a crystalline silicon solar cell is provided, including the following steps: (1) forming a porous layer structure on a surface of a silicon wafer; (2) then cleaning with a first alkaline chemical solution; (3) removing residual metal particles with a cleaning solution; (4) and then etching the surface with a first chemical etching solution to obtain the textured structure of the crystalline silicon solar cell. The method greatly prolongs the lifetime of the mixed solution of hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid and ensures the stability and uniformity of the textured structure.

Method for producing a textured structure of a crystalline silicon solar cell

A process for preparing a passivated emitter rear contact solar cell, which includes the steps as follows: removing the damaged layer on the surface of the silicon wafer and at the same time polishing both surfaces, texturing, forming PN junction, etching, removing the glass impurity, depositing a passivation film on the back surface, depositing a passivating antireflective layer on the front surface, making local openings on the back surface, screen printing of metal paste on both the front surface and the back surface and sintering, in which the texturing step employs a catalytic metal etching approach, and the textured structure is a nanometer-level textured structure. The present invention has combined removing the damaged layer on the surface of the silicon wafer and polishing both the front and back surfaces into one single step, and thus has simplified the production process and reduced the production cost.

Process for preparing passivated emitter rear contact (PERC) solar cells

Light to current converter devices, such as solar cells, are disclosed. The devices may include via holes extending through the cell substrate and may include through-hole electrodes within the via holes. The through-hole electrodes may be made from one or more materials and may be hollow, partially hollow, or fully filled. Front and rear electrodes may also be formed on the device and can be made of the same or different materials as the through-hole electrode. The devices may include emitters located only on the top surface of the cell, located on the top surface and symmetrically or asymmetrically along a portion of the inner surface of the via holes, or located on the top surface and full inner surface of the via holes. Processes for making light to current converter devices are also disclosed.

Light to current converter devices and methods of manufacturing the same

Processes for making light to current converter devices are provided. The processes can be used to make light to current converter devices having P-N junctions located on only the top surface of the cell, located on the top surface and symmetrically or asymmetrically along a portion of the inner surface of the via holes, located on the top surface and full inner surface of the via holes, or located on the top surface, full inner surface of the via holes, and a portion of the bottom surface of the cell. The processes may isolate the desired P-N junction by etching the emitter, forming a via hole after forming the emitter, using a barrier layer to protect portions of the emitter from etching, or using a barrier layer to prevent the emitter from being formed on portions of the substrate.

Methods of manufacturing light to current converter devices
