摘要： The present invention provides a method of producing a zinc oxide film, which comprises applying current between a conductive base member immersed in an electrodepositing bath and a counter electrode immersed in the electrodepositing bath to form a zinc oxide film on the conductive base member, wherein the electrodepositing bath is maintained at a temperature of 50° C. or more and has a temperature profile such that the temperature of the electrodepositing bath is lower in the final stage of electrodeposition than in the initial of electrodeposition. By the present method, a zinc oxide film with the excellent effect of light containment is stably produced in a short time, thereby producing a solar cell with a high efficiency at low a cost.
