Abstract
A process of manufacturing a crystalline silicon solar cell includes forming a rough surface on a surface of the crystalline silicon wafer and an Al2O3 film is coated on a non-rough surface thereof. A single-sided n diffusion layer and phosphosilicate glass film are formed. An anti-reflection layer SiNx film is formed on a top surface of the phosphosilicate glass film. An Al metallic film is formed as a back ohmic electrode on the Al2O3 film. The local area of the anti-reflection layer SiNx film and the phosphosilicate glass film is melted and removed to form a local area of n+-Si layer. Then, an Al—Si back ohmic contact electrode is formed between the Al metallic film and the crystalline silicon wafer. A front ohmic contact electrode is formed on the molten and removed area of the antireflection layer SiNx film and the phosphosilicate film by light-induced plating.
