The present invention is directed to a semiconductor substrate having at least an electrode formed thereon, in which the electrode has a multilayer structure including two or more layers, of the multilayer structure, at least a first electrode layer directly bonded to the semiconductor substrate contains at least silver and a glass frit, and contains, as an additive, at least one of oxides of Ti, Bi, Zr, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Si, Al, Ge, Sn, Pb, and Zn, and, of an electrode layer formed on the first electrode layer, at least an uppermost electrode layer to be bonded to a wire contains at least silver and a glass frit and does not contain the additive. This makes it possible to form, on a semiconductor substrate, an electrode adhered to the semiconductor substrate with sufficient adhesive strength and adhered to a wire via solder with sufficient adhesive strength by lowering both contact resistance and interconnect resistance.

摘要:
A method of fabricating a solar cell forms a large number of grooves on a first main surface of a p-type silicon single crystal substrate sliced out from a silicon single crystal ingot as described below. First an edge portion of a groove-carving blade is projected out from a flat substrate feeding surface of a working table by a predetermined height. The p-type silicon single crystal substrate is moved along the substrate feeding surface towards the rotating groove-carving blade while keeping a close contact of the first main surface thereof with the substrate feeding surface. Electrodes are then formed on the inner side face of thus-carved grooves only on one side in the width-wise direction thereof.
