止膜jを形成して効率の向上を図ってきた。(Prior Art) A conventional solar cell was configured as shown in FIG. 1, for example. That is, n -Ga having the (100) plane
A p-GaAs layer with a thickness of about 1 μm is grown on the As substrate l by liquid phase epitaxial growth, and p-Ga(1-phantom A/XAs ll(f 3 (
An attempt has been made to improve efficiency by growing a layer 3 (x=0.7 to O0) to a thickness of about SOO to 1000 A, and further forming an electrode layer and an antireflection film on the layer 3.
しかし、反射防止膜Sといえどもすべての太陽光の波長
に対して無反射にすることができる訳ではなく、実際に
は、太陽光の反射による損失を無視し得ない。従って、
いかに素子作製技術の向上が図られようとも、反射損失
はいかんともし難く、効率の改善にも限界があった。However, even the anti-reflection film S cannot make all wavelengths of sunlight non-reflective, and in reality, losses due to reflection of sunlight cannot be ignored. Therefore,
No matter how much the device manufacturing technology was improved, reflection loss was difficult to manage, and there was a limit to the improvement of efficiency.
そこで、従来、この太陽光の太陽電池による反射損失を
減少するために、太陽電池の表面に多数の凹凸を艙底す

った。Therefore, in order to reduce the reflection loss of sunlight by the solar cells, there is a conventional method of creating many unevenness on the surface of the solar cells (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application No. 32-32-1981).
. However, in these methods, for example, to form the desired unevenness, a so-called light exposure technique is used, which involves masking using an appropriate resist and patterning using an etching technique. The problem is that it requires extra steps and complicated processing. In addition, as seven methods for forming unevenness on this surface,
There is also a method of forming irregularities by rough polishing using a mechanical grinding method, but in this case, damage caused by machining may remain and extra steps such as etching are required to remove the damage. There were problems such as the need for

The eight sides are always in a front-back relationship. Moreover,
Normal chemical etching always results in (///)A

Etching is performed using a methanol solution to form pyramid-shaped unevenness on the surface of the substrate A. An np junction InP solar cell was obtained by thermally diffusing S as a donor impurity from this uneven surface at 70° C. for 3 hours to make the surface layer approximately 0°3 μm thick as n-type InP.
