Abstract

Disclosed is a solar cell, including: a substrate; an emitter, a first passivation film, an antireflection film and a first electrode sequentially disposed on an upper surface of the substrate; a tunneling layer, a retardation layer, a field passivation layer, a second passivation film and a second electrode sequentially disposed on a lower surface of the substrate. The retardation layer is configured to retard a migration of a doped ion in the field passivation layer to the substrate. The retardation layer includes a first retardation sub-layer overlapping with a projection of the second electrode and a second retardation sub-layer misaligning with a projection of the second electrode, and at least the second retardation sub-layer is an intrinsic semiconductor. A thickness of the first retardation sub-layer is smaller than a thickness of the second retardation sub-layer in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate.
