Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a solar cell with a decorative function to be readily manufactured, by fusion-welding a sheet having a decorative function to a solar cell. CONSTITUTION:A first transparent electrically conductive layer 32, an amorphous semidoncuctor layer 33 and a second transparent electrically conductive layer 34 are successively formed on a light-transmitting insulative substrate 31 to produce a solar cell. A plastic film 36 having a desired decorating pattern 35 formed thereon is bonded to the solar cell. Even when the film 36 is bonded to the light-incident side of the substrate 31, the decorating effect is not deteriorated. In such case, light is introduced from the side of the cell which is closer to the layer 34.

In the figure, a transparent conductive layer 2 of a cylinder 1 is sequentially formed on a transparent insulating substrate 1. Amorphous semiconductor layer 3. Decorative electrode that also serves as a collector electrode 5. A state in which the second transparent conductive layer 4 was formed is shown. Then, the light 1o is introduced from the transparent insulating substrate 1, and the generated power 9 is photoelectrically converted. The lead terminals 7 and 8 of the second transparent conductive layer are taken out to the outside. In the above example, since the collector electrode 5 also has a decorative function, there is one aspect that is consistent with the purpose of this invention. However, in this conventional example, Aq, which also has a decorative function,
A metal collector electrode such as AI or Ti is formed on the amorphous semiconductor 3 by vacuum evaporation, plating, or printing, and processes such as heat treatment to give ohmic properties in order to extract the generated power to the outside are required during production. There was a major problem in that the manufacturing process was complicated.

FIG. 3 shows a first transparent conductive layer 32 on a transparent insulating substrate 31 such as a glass plate. Amorphous semiconductor layer 33. 3 is an external perspective view of a solar cell with a decorative function, which is constructed by laminating a plastic film sheet 36 shown in FIG. 2 on a solar cell in which a second transparent conductive layer 34 is sequentially formed. FIG. Here's the first one. A transparent electrode made of indium oxide, tin oxide, or the like is formed as the second transparent conductive layer, and these transparent electrodes can be formed on the upper surface of the semiconductor layer or the insulating layer by electron beam evaporation. As the non-single quality semiconductor, an amorphous St semiconductor formed by decomposing and depositing monosilane by plasma CVD can be conveniently used. The decorative sheet 36 can be laminated onto the second transparent conductive layer by welding the peripheral portion of the decorative sheet 36 using a laser or heat. Note that the plastic film is used as the second transparent conductive layer 34 in the above example.
Although it is pasted on top, the decorative effect is not impaired even if it is pasted on the light incident side of the transparent insulating substrate 31. In this case, light is naturally introduced from the second transparent conductive layer side.
