Crystalline silicon solar cells solar energy is an inexhaustible source of renewable energy. It is also a clean energy source that does not produce any environmental pollution. Among the effective use of solar energy, solar energy utilization is one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic research areas in recent years. It is one of the most highly anticipated projects. For this reason, people have developed and developed solar cells.
One of the most critical steps in the production of crystalline silicon solar cells is to make very fine circuits on the front and back of the silicon wafer, and to export the photoelectrons out of the cell. This metal coating process is usually done by screen printing technology.
Crystal silicon solar cell screen printing technology
The crystalline silicon solar cell screen printing technology is the process that the conductive paste containing metal is imprinted on the silicon wafer to form a circuit or an electrode through the screen mesh hole. Typical crystalline silicon solar cells require multiple screen printing steps throughout the entire production process. In general, there are two different processes for screen printing on the front (contact line and busbar) and backside (electrode/passivation and busbars) of the battery. Solar cells are a symbolic product for the development and utilization of new energy and low-carbon environmental protection. Screen printing plays a very important role in the fabrication process of the solar cell's front, back, and back electric fields. The screen-printed solar electrode process is now quite mature and has become the mainstream process screen printing method.
Crystal silicon solar cell printing process
The printing process starts with the placement of the silicon wafers on the printing table. A very fine screen printing plate is fixed on the frame and placed above the silicon plate. The screen encloses other areas than the grid lines so that the conductive paste can pass through. The distance between the silicon wafer and the screen must be strictly controlled (referred to as print gap, or net distance). Due to the need for a more slender metal wire on the front side, the mesh of the screen used for frontal printing is usually much smaller than that used for backside printing. The appropriate amount of slurry was placed on the wire mesh, and the slurry was coated with a spatula so that it was uniformly filled in the mesh. The slurry was squeezed onto the silicon wafer through the mesh screen mesh during the movement of the blade.
The temperature, pressure, speed and other variables of this process must be strictly controlled. After each printing is completed, the silicon wafer is placed in a drying oven to solidify the conductive paste. The wafers are then fed into a different press and more lines are printed on the front or back. After all the printing steps are completed, the silicon wafer is sintered in a high-temperature furnace.
Print on the front and back of the wafer
Each solar cell has screen-printed wires on the front and back, and their functions are different. The front line is thinner than the back side; some manufacturers print the back side of the conductive line first, then flip the silicon side over and print the front side of the line, minimizing possible damage during processing. On the front side (facing the sun), most crystalline silicon solar cells are designed with very fine circuitry (“finger lineâ€), which transfers the photogenerated electrons collected in the active area to the larger acquisition wire – “busbarsâ€. Then, it is passed on to the circuit system of the component. The front finger line is much thinner than the back line (narrow to 80 μm), and because of this, the frontal printing step requires greater precision and accuracy. The printing requirements for the backside and frontside of the wafers are different and technically less stringent. The first step in the backside printing process is to print a layer of aluminum-based conductive material instead of a very fine conductive grid. At the same time, light that is not captured can be reflected back to the battery. This layer can also "passivate" the solar cells, blocking the excess molecular pathways and preventing the flow of electrons from being trapped by these voids. The second step in the backside printing is to make busbars that are connected to external circuitry.

In order to increase the conversion rate of solar cells and reduce the shielding of the silver wires and the battery board, the width of the grid lines on the screen plate should be as narrow as possible, and too thin grid lines may cause the thickness of the conductive silver paste to be too thin, even It may be broken. Therefore, the grid width on the screen plate is generally between 80 and 120 μm. Due to the increased width of the conductive silver paste after printing, the printed silver paste has a width of 110-150 μm after sintering. In order to reduce the series resistance, the total weight of the silver wire printed on the battery board should be as low as possible, basically 0.01 ~ 0.02g. Printing pressure is 75 to 80 Newtons. The stretching tension of the screen is generally 28±2N. The life of the back electrode screen should be greater than 15,000 times, the life of the back electric field screen should be greater than 15,000 times, and the life of the positive electrode screen should be greater than 10,000 times.
Crystal silicon solar cell wire mesh storage requirements
Wire mesh should be stored in a constant temperature and humidity condition. Rapid temperature changes will cause the tension to drop. The excessive humidity will cause the degeneration of the latex, which will affect the use effect and even scrap. Specific storage conditions are: temperature 22±3°C, humidity 50%±10%.
Before the production workshop, the screens should be led out in advance and kept in the factory for more than 24 hours. When it is urgently needed, it should be ensured that the plant is left standing for more than 2 hours. Screens are always stored in a clean environment before leaving the factory, so they should be kept clean before use. The quality inspection process should be performed in a relatively clean environment. After the quality inspection, it should be sealed in the original plastic bag and stored in the warehouse. Avoid dust contamination before use.
The screen is very sensitive to vibrations. Any collision will cause the tension to drop or the net to be scrapped. Therefore, it should be handled gently during the movement and use to avoid any collision.
The surface of the wire mesh is very fragile, and any blunt object may cause damage to the mesh yarn portion, causing the tension to drop, the pattern to be damaged, the lifespan to be shortened, or even to be scrapped. Therefore, during the movement and use, the surface of the mesh should be prevented from coming into contact with any blunt object.
Therefore, the best way to store the screen is to use a dedicated shelf for vertical storage. If it is laid flat, it should not exceed 5 layers. The layers should be separated by a soft pad at the frame.
