Abstract
A photovoltaic element capable of improving weather resistance is obtained. This photovoltaic element includes a photoelectric conversion layer, a first transparent conductive film formed on a surface of the photoelectric conversion layer closer to an incidence side and including a first indium oxide layer having (222) orientation and two X-ray diffraction peaks, and a second transparent conductive film formed on a surface of the photoelectric conversion layer opposite to the incidence side and including a second indium oxide layer having (222) orientation and one X-ray diffraction peak.
