Abstract
A solar cell can include a substrate of a first conductive type; an emitter region of a second conductive type opposite the first conductive type and which forms a p-n junction along with the substrate; an anti-reflection layer positioned on the emitter region; a front electrode part electrically connected to the emitter region; and a back electrode part electrically connected to the substrate, wherein the substrate including a first area formed of single crystal silicon and a second area formed of polycrystalline silicon, wherein a thickness of the anti-reflection layer positioned on the first area is less than a thickness of the anti-reflection layer positioned on the second area, wherein a roughness of an incident surface of the substrate in the first area is different from a roughness of the incident surface of the substrate in the second area, and wherein the emitter region is entirely formed on the incident surface of the substrate.
