A stack including a first electrode, a first impurity semiconductor layer having one conductivity type, an intrinsic semiconductor layer, a second impurity semiconductor layer having an opposite conductivity type to the one conductivity type, and a light-transmitting second electrode is formed over an insulator. The light-transmitting second electrode and the second impurity semiconductor layer have one or more openings. The shortest distance between one portion of the wall of one opening and an opposite portion of the wall of the same opening at the level of the interface between the second impurity semiconductor layer and the intrinsic semiconductor layer is made smaller than the diffusion length of holes in the intrinsic semiconductor layer. Thus, recombination is suppressed, so that more photocarriers are generated due to the openings and taken out as current, whereby conversion efficiency is increased.

The present invention provides a substrate holding method capable of contributing to improvement in performance of an electronic part. A plastic film is adhered to a holding frame by using an adhesive tape having a proper gas releasing characteristic such that total quantity of gas detected when analysis using gas chromatograph mass spectrometry (dynamic HS-GC-MS) is conducted under test conditions of 180° C. and 10 minutes is 100.5 μg/g or less in n-tetradecane. In the case where the plastic film held by the holding frame is subjected to a process of manufacturing an electronic part (for example, a solar battery), even when a process accompanying generation of heat during the manufacturing process (for example, a film forming process such as plasma CVD) is performed on the plastic film, a release amount of unnecessary gas released from the adhesive tape due to the influence of the heat is suppressed, so that deterioration in the performance of the electronic part caused by the unnecessary gas is suppressed.
