Abstract
A solar cell is made which has a first conduction-type crystalline silicon substrate having a texture provided on the surface, and an i-type amorphous silicon layer located on the surface of the crystalline silicon substrate, wherein the texture has a larger radius of curvature Rof root parts thereof than the radius of curvature Rof peak parts thereof. The crystalline silicon substrate has a first conduction-type highly-doped region containing a first conduction-type dopant on the surface thereof, and the dopant concentration in the first conduction-type highly-doped region is higher than that in the center in the thickness direction of the crystalline silicon substrate.
