摘要:
The method of manufacturing a semiconductor apparatus can solve problems in that a semiconductor film is not separated completely from a substrate and a great quantity of etchant is required. Ammonium fluoride is added to a hydrofluoric acid solution, so as to improve the etching rate and promote separation of the semiconductor film from the substrate. A manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention is provided with a re-liquefying function capable of again liquefying vapor of hydrofluoric acid solution so as to use liquefied vapor as the etchant so that the etchant is saved.

A method for producing a thin-film solar cell includes successively depositing a lower anti-reflection film having a relatively large etching rate in a prescribed etchant and an upper anti-reflection film having a relatively small etching rate in the prescribed etchant on a photosensitive surface of a semiconductor substrate; patterning the upper anti-reflection film to form an aperture; and etching the lower anti-reflection film using the patterned upper anti-reflection film as a mask.

A process of forming electrodes is simplified during modularizing of a solar battery. According to the manufacturing method and the manufacturing apparatus, a thin solar battery is manufactured at a reduced cost and with a better yield. Using a robot which includes a suction chip which can handle a semiconductor film 2 without any damage which is separated from a particular substrate 1, the semiconductor films 2 are each accurately placed through a transparent resin 3 onto a glass substrate 7 which serves as a window of a solar battery, and p-type and n-type electrodes are printed at a time on the semiconductor films 2 which are arranged. Further, since a monolithic tab electrode is soldered to connect the electrodes, the manufacturing processes of the solar battery are simplified.

A method for producing a thin film solar cell includes preparing a substrate of a low purity material and having opposed front and rear surfaces; forming an insulating film on the front surface of the substrate; forming a second conductivity type active layer of a high purity material on the insulating film with a front surface exposed; forming a second conductivity type semiconductor region within the active layer, reaching the front surface, to produce a p-n junction for light-to-electricity conversion; forming an anti-reflection film on the front surface of the active layer, the anti-reflection film reducing reflection of incident light; forming a surface electrode in contact with the front surface of the active layer; adhering the front surface side of the active layer to a supporting plate and selectively etching the low purity substrate from the rear surface to form a supporting substrate supporting the active layer; and forming a rear electrode on the rear surface of the supporting substrate contacting the active layer.
摘要:
A thin-film solar cell includes a thin active layer of high purity material having opposed front and rear surfaces for light-to-electricity conversion, a structure for supporting the thin active layer, and a rear electrode in contact with the rear surface of the active layer. The supporting structure includes a supporting substrate of a low purity material having opposed front and rear surfaces, on the front surface of which the rear surface of the active layer is disposed, and an insulating barrier layer interposed between the front surface of the supporting substrate and the rear surface of the active layer. The barrier layer prevents impurities in the supporting substrate from diffusing into the active layer. Since the supporting substrate comprises a low purity material, the quantity of the expensive high purity material can be reduced by reducing the thickness of the active layer, resulting in low production costs. Since the supporting substrate is present on the rear surface of the active layer, a surface electrode disposed on the front surface of the active layer is exposed. Therefore, when a solar cell module is fabricated using a plurality of the solar cells, a wire bonding process for connecting adjacent solar cells is easily carried out.

A solar battery cell, solar battery module, and solar battery module group achieving high product value by enabling the display of surface patterns without reducing the power generating efficiency of the solar battery cells are provided. The direction and/or reflectance of reflected light incident to the surface of the solar battery cell are varied by controlling the distribution of the rough surface structure imparted to the solar battery cell surface. The direction or reflectance of reflected light incident to the surface of the solar battery cell is changed in part depending upon the part of the semiconductor solar battery cell surface to which the light is incident. Semiconductor solar battery cells with high product value can therefore be achieved because patterns with strong visual impact can be displayed and easily recognized without reducing the power generation efficiency of the solar battery cell.

A trajectory interpolation apparatus is disclosed. The first storage part stores first time and first location information of a movable body at the first time. The second storage stores second time and second location information of the movable body at the second time. The calculation part calculates a first moving distance from the first time and a second moving distance from the second time based on a relationship between the time and the speed stored in the second storage part, regarding third time between the first time and the second time. The determination part determines, as the interpolation point, one of intersection points for a circle in which the first location is set as its center and the first moving distance is set as its radius, and another circle in which the second location is set as its center and the second moving distance is set as its radius.

An apparatus includes a unit dividing a region into blocks having a predetermined bit length and generating addition data having the predetermined bit length corresponding to coordinate data, a unit storing storage data having the predetermined bit length, a unit generating composite data having a bit length twice the length of the predetermined bit length by connecting the addition data to the storage data, and storing the composite data, and a unit repeating an operation of designating the bit length of the composite data as the predetermined bit length, instructing to generate the addition data, and instructing to generate and store the composite data. The number of different bits between a bit string of a location corresponding to the input coordinate data and a bit string of a reference location tends to increase as a distance between the location corresponding to the coordinate data and the reference location increases.
