Wire wound electronic component

An amorphous semiconductor solar cell which comprises a glass substrate and a transparent electrode coated on the substrate. The device also comprises an amorphous semiconductor layer on the transparent electrode, and a rear electrode on the amorphous layer, wherein the average grain diameter of the surface of the transparent electrode ranges from 0.1 .mu.m to 2.5 .mu.m.

Amorphous semiconductor solar cell having a grained transparent electrode

In the deposition of a hydrogen-containing semiconductor film on a metal substrate, the electric contact characteristic between the metal substrate and the semiconductor film is improved by preparatorily exposing to hydrogen plasma the surface of the metal substrate on which the semiconductor film is to be deposited.
