As the antireflection film of solar cells, a nitride film was used which was conventionally formed by reduced pressure plasma CVD. However, reducing solar cell production costs has been difficult due to high equipment costs and processing costs involved in reduced pressure treatment. By means of a plasma head comprising multiple plasma head unit members which, arranged in rows, apply an electric or magnetic field via a dielectric member and generate plasma, this CVD film production method forms a nitride film with atmospheric pressure plasma CVD using dielectric-barrier discharge. The dielectric discharge is capable of forming a glow discharge plasma stable even at atmospheric pressure, and, by generating and reacting different plasmas from neighboring plasma outlets, it is possible to form a nitride film in atmospheric pressure, making it possible to produce low-cost solar cells.
