Abstract
In a method for manufacturing a solar cell, a photoelectric conversion element, which has a surface whose outer periphery is surrounded by a plurality of sides, and a coating having light diffusivity are prepared. The coating is applied to an outer peripheral area of the surface by screen printing in a direction from a lower side, which is one of the sides, toward an upper side, which is one of the sides and which is opposed to the lower side such that an application amount of the coating to be applied along the lower side is smaller than an application amount of the coating to be applied along the upper side.
