SOLAR CELL WITH HIGH PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION EFFICIENCY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SOLAR CELL WITH HIGH PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION EFFICIENCY

摘要

A method for manufacturing a solar cell, including the steps of: forming unevenness on both of main surfaces of a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type; forming a base layer on a first main surface of the semiconductor substrate; forming a diffusion mask on the base layer; removing the diffusion mask in a pattern; forming an emitter layer on the portion of the first main surface where the diffusion mask have been removed; removing the remaining diffusion mask; forming a dielectric film on the first main surface; forming a base electrode on the base layer; and forming an emitter electrode on the emitter layer. This provides a method for manufacturing a solar cell that can bring high photoelectric conversion efficiency while decreasing the number of steps.
