Abstract
A solar cell and a method of manufacturing a solar cell are disclosed. The solar cell includes forming a first doped region of a first conductive type and a second doped region of a second conductive type opposite the first conductive type on a semiconductor substrate of the first conductive type; forming a passivation layer on the semiconductor substrate to expose a portion of each of the first and second doped regions; and forming a first electrode electrically connected to the first doped region and a second electrode electrically connected to the second doped region, wherein the forming of the first and second electrodes includes forming a metal seed layer directly contacting the first doped region and a metal seed layer directly contacting the second doped region, and forming a conductive layer on the metal seed layer of each of the first and second electrodes.
