摘要： Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a thin-film solar cell using plasma between a couple of parallel electrodes. In the method, a base member is placed in a chamber between a first electrode and a second electrode facing each other. A hydrogen gas is heated, and thus heated hydrogen gas and a silicon-based gas are introduced into a space between the first electrode and the second electrode. A ratio of a flow rate of the heated hydrogen gas to that of the silicon-based gas is at least 25 and no more than 58. A plasma is generated between the first electrode and the second electrode by applying high-frequency power to the second electrode while a pressure in the chamber is 1000 Pa or higher, and an optically active layer containing crystalline silicon is deposited on the base material.

摘要： Provided is a superstrate type a-Si:H thin film solar cell of which the device characteristics are improved as compared with conventional ones. The solar cell device is manufactured by a process comprising depositing phosphorus on a transparent conductive film formed on a transparent substrate and sequentially forming a p-type layer, an i-type layer, and an n-type layer which are formed of a-Si:H on the transparent conductive film by a plasma CVD method. The phosphorus is deposited, for example, by plasmatization of phosphorus-containing gas. Alternatively, the phosphorus is deposited by etching a phosphorus source provided in a margin region where a plasma excitation voltage is applied but no transparent substrate is placed, with hydrogen plasma at the start of the formation of the p-type layer by the plasma CVD method. Preferably, the deposition of phosphorus is controlled so that the arithmetic average value (ΔCav) of the concentration difference between boron and phosphorus within a range of diffusion of boron in the i-type layer may be 1.1×1017(cm−3)≦ΔCav≦1.6×1017(cm−3) or less.
