Abstract
An i-type amorphous silicon film and an anti-reflection film made of amorphous silicon nitride or the like are formed in this order on a main surface of an n-type single-crystalline silicon substrate. On a back surface of the n-type single-crystalline silicon substrate are provided a positive electrode and a negative electrode next to each other. The positive electrode includes an i-type amorphous silicon film, a p-type amorphous silicon film, a back electrode, and a collector electrode formed in this order on the back surface of the n-type single-crystalline silicon substrate. The negative electrode includes an i-type amorphous silicon film, an n-type amorphous silicon film, a back electrode, and a collector electrode formed in this order on the back surface of the n-type single-crystalline silicon substrate.
