METHOD OF FORMING ELECTRODE PATTERN FOR SOLAR CELL, ELECTRODE MANUFACTURED USING THE SAME AND SOLAR CELL
Provided are a method of forming an electrode pattern for a solar cell, an electrode manufactured using the same, and a solar cell. The method of forming an electrode pattern for a solar cell includes preparing a composition for forming a solar cell electrode including a conductive powder, a glass frit, an organic binder, and a solvent, and coating the composition for forming a solar cell electrode on a screen mask with an organic layer followed by drying and firing the same, wherein a difference of water contact angles of the composition for forming a solar cell electrode and the screen mask with the organic layer ranges from 40 degrees to 60 degrees.
