To quantitatively characterize the pyramidal texture of monocrystalline silicon cells and to optimize the parameters of the texturing process, the relative standard deviation was proposed to quantitatively characterize the uniformity of the pyramidal texture. Referring to the definition and calculation of the standard deviation in mathematical statistics, was defined as the standard deviation of the pyramid relative height h after normalization of the pyramid height H of monocrystalline silicon wafer surfaces. Six different silicon cells, with different pyramidal textures, were obtained by applying different texturing times. The relationships between and the photoelectric characteristics were analyzed. The feasibility of quantitatively characterizing the uniformity of the pyramidal texture using was verified. By fitting the curve, the feasibility of optimizing the texturing process parameters and predicting the photoelectric characteristics using was verified. The experimental and analytical results indicate that, when the relative standard deviation was smaller, the uniformity of the pyramidal texture obtained by texturing was better. The photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of the silicon cells monotonically increased with decreasing . The silicon cell obtained by texturing with 2% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution for 18.1 min had a textured surface with a minimum of , the reflectivity of the silicon cell reached its minimum value of 2.28%, and the PCE reached its maximum value of 19.76%.
