Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a solar battery which has high conversion efficiency by aligning many solar batteries of rod shape in which rodlike articles having good conductivity on the side faces are as one electrodes, light active semiconductor layers are formed on the side faces and transparent conductive layers are laminated thereon, in parallel. CONSTITUTION:A rodlike substrate of good conductivity at least on the front surface is used, and a light active amorphous silicon semiconductor layer 3 is formed substantially on the entire periphery of the side face. A transparent conductive layer 4 is laminated on the layer 3. The solar batteries thus formed are collected in a flat plate shape. In other words, many rodlike solar batteries of basic units in which the semiconductor layer 3, a transparent conductive layer 4 and, as required, a good conductive layer 5 are formed on each substrate 1, are aligned in parallel with each other, and paired electrode layer 7 is formed on one surface (back surface on which no solar light is emitted) so as to electrically contact with the layer 4.

Solar cells that use amorphous silicon semiconductors in their photoelectric conversion layers are seen as promising candidates as low-cost solar cells, and efforts are being made in various fields to improve their conversion efficiency.
・Ru. However, conventional solar cells have a flat plate structure, and due to their shape, there are restrictions on how they can be used.For example, in a flat plate +11J structure, if a large element of about 5 cm square is used, the conversion efficiency is 6 to 4. The disadvantage was that it was only about %.

The reasons for this are that as the size increases, the amorphous silicon film tends to become non-uniform, defects such as pinholes A' and 9- increase, and the resistance of the transparent conductive film increases, increasing the internal resistance of the battery. ). Special +LLc, the current transparent conductive film is what is called a 1'1'0 film based on indium oxide-tin oxide, and its resistance is 10 to 200Ω/1.
The high resistance of d and 1- is a problem that cannot be ignored. As a solution to this problem, a plate-shaped solar cell has been proposed in which a branch-like metal layer is provided on a transparent conductive film, and the metal layer compensates for the low conductivity of the transparent conductive film. However, the branch-like metal layer blocks the incidence of sunlight, which leads to a decrease in conversion efficiency and causes another problem.
