摘要
为进一步提高晶硅太阳能电池发射极的性能,本文提出了一种新的发射极制备技术-低温CVD法沉积固态薄膜扩散源并进行高温扩散。采用热丝化学气相沉积法(HWCVD)在单晶硅片上沉积重掺杂硅基薄膜作为固态扩散源,然后在空气氛围下的管式炉中进行高温扩散,最后用稀HF溶液去除表面的BSG/PSG。通过掺磷薄膜扩散在P型单晶硅片上制备了方阻在50~250Ω/□范围内可控的n+型发射极;通过掺硼薄膜扩散在N型硅片上制备了方阻在150~600Ω/□范围内可控的p+型发射极。并且通过在源气体中加入CO2作为氧源,实现了扩散后硅片表面残留扩散源层的彻底去除。
A novel solid-phase diffusion method is mentioned in this paper to make the emitters of the crystalline silicon solar cells.The solid diffusion source films are heavily doped amorphous silicon-based films deposited by Hot Wire Chemical-vapor Deposition(HWCVD) at low substrate temperature.The films are doped by B_2H_6 for p-type and PH_3 for n-type.After the films deposition,the wafers are thermaltreated in a tube furnace at air atmosphere.The Borosilicate glass(BSG) and Phosphorus silicon glass(PSG) are removed by diluted HF solution.With phosphorous source diffusion,the sheet resistance of n+emitter in the range of 50-250 Ω/□ is achieved on p-type monocrystalline silicon wafer.The sheet resistance of p+emitter in the range of 150-600 Ω/□ is achieved on n-type monocrystalline silicon.CO_2 as oxygen source added to the precursor gases during the deposition process by HWCVD is succeeded to thoroughly remove the source layer after diffusion.
