ABSTRACT:
A solar battery cell of a serial stacked structure, increasing scattering of light, exhibiting good power-generating efficiency per unit area, and ensuring high reliability and a large yield in the manufacturing process, is provided. The solar battery cell includes a plurality of power-generating regions connected in series, each having insulative transparent semiconductor, front electrode, intermediate transparent conductive film, photoelectric conversion layer formed of stacked semiconductor films, and back electrode, and a contact line electrically connecting the front electrode and the back electrode of the neighboring respective power-generating regions. One power-generating region has at least two photoelectric conversion layers with the intermediate transparent conductive films sandwiched therebetween. At least one member of nonconductor and/or semiconductor is provided between the intermediate transparent conductive film and the contact line to prevent direct contact thereof.
