    Abstract: In a photovoltaic device (1), first amorphous semiconductor portions (102n) and second amorphous semiconductor portions (102p) are provided alternately on one of faces of a semiconductor substrate (101). Each first amorphous semiconductor portion (102n) has at least one first amorphous semiconductor strip (1020n), and each second amorphous semiconductor portion (102p) has at least one second amorphous semiconductor strip (1020p). A plurality of first electrodes (103n) are provided spaced apart from each other on each first amorphous semiconductor strip (1020n), and a plurality of second electrodes (103p) are provided spaced apart from each other on each second amorphous semiconductor strip (1020p).

    Abstract: There is provided a photoelectric conversion element which includes an n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1). The n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1) includes a central region (11) and an end-portion region (12). The central region (11) is a region which has the same central point as the central point of the n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1) and is surrounded by a circle. The diameter of the circle is set to be a length which is 40% of a length of the shortest side among four sides of the n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1). The central region (11) has a thickness t1. The end-portion region (12) is a region of being within 5 mm from an edge of the n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1). The end-portion region (12) is disposed on an outside of the central region (11) in an in-plane direction of the n-type single crystal silicon substrate (1), and has a thickness t2 which is thinner than the thickness t1. The end-portion region (12) has average surface roughness which is smaller than average surface roughness of the central region (11).

    Abstract: Provided is a photoelectric conversion device capable of suppressing diffusion of a dopant in a p layer or n layer into an adjacent layer. A photoelectric conversion device is provided with a silicon substrate, a substantially intrinsic amorphous layer formed on one surface of the silicon substrate, and a first conductive amorphous layer that is formed on the intrinsic amorphous layer. The first conductive amorphous layer includes a first concentration layer and a second concentration layer that is stacked on the first concentration layer. The dopant concentration of the second concentration layer is 8×1017 cm−3 or more, and is lower than the dopant concentration of the first concentration layer.

    Abstract: A film-forming method for forming a thin film on a substrate includes a contact step, an external force removal step, and a film-forming step. At the contact step (step B), the substrate 30 and a member 31 in contact with one surface of the substrate is stacked, and the substrate 30 and the member 31 in contact with one surface of the substrate are placed under vacuum while an external force is applied in a direction in which the substrate 30 and the member 31 in contact with one surface of the substrate are stacked. At the external force removal step (step C), the external force is removed at atmospheric pressure or under vacuum. At a film-forming step (step E), a thin film is formed on the one surface or the other surface of the substrate 30.
