  • Publication number: 20230335658
    Abstract: Provided is a solar cell. The solar cell may include a semiconductor layer and a passivation film stack provided on a back surface of the semiconductor layer. The passivation film stack may include a first passivation layer provided on the back surface of the semiconductor layer and including a silicon-rich layer with a silicon atom concentration ranging from 5×1021/cm3 to 2.5×1022/cm3; a second passivation layer provided on a surface of the first passivation layer and including an oxygen-rich and nitrogen-rich layer; and a third passivation layer provided on a surface of the second passivation layer and including at least one silicon nitride film with a gradient-varied refractive index. A first refractive index of the first passivation layer may be greater than a second refractive index of the second passivation layer and smaller than a third refractive index of the third passivation layer.

  • Publication number: 20220059718
    Abstract: Provided is a method for passivating a silicon-based semiconductor device and a silicon-based semiconductor device. The method includes the following steps: cutting, by using a cutting process, a preset region of the silicon-based semiconductor device, to form a first surface associated with the preset region; smoothing the first surface to adjust a surface appearance of the first surface, so that a height difference between a protrusion and a recess of a non-marginal region on the first surface is less than 20 nm; and passivating the smoothed first surface to form a first passivation layer on the first surface. The present application can reduce or avoid the problem of efficiency reduction caused by cutting a silicon-based semiconductor device and help to obtain a more efficient silicon-based semiconductor device.
