Abstract
A method for manufacturing a solar cell electrode, comprising the steps of: (a) applying a conductive paste for bus electrode to a wafer in order to form a bus electrode pattern; (b) depositing onto the wafer a photocurable conductive paste for finger electrode from a discharge slot of a dispenser nozzle to thereby form an uncured finger electrode pattern on the wafer, wherein the nozzle moves parallel to the wafer; and (c) curing the uncured finger electrode pattern by exposing the uncured finger electrode pattern to UV light either after forming the uncured finger electrode pattern on the wafer in the step (b), or concurrent with the step (b).
