- the above-mentioned technique 1 requires processing for each silicon substrate that can reduce the reflection of a polycrystalline silicon substrate with high performance, and also removes defects that are formed simultaneously with V-groove formation. Therefore, there is a problem that mass production is inferior because a process such as wet etching is required. Furthermore, since the pitch of the V-groove is limited to the pitch of the rotating blade, the V-groove cannot be formed at minute intervals, and in order to obtain an effective light confinement effect, the V-groove must be formed deeply. Nana! / ⁇ There is an issue. In addition, the above-mentioned technology 2 has a problem that it is inferior in mass productivity because it uses a vacuum process apparatus and thus has a high processing cost for exhaust gas, which has a low processing capacity.

- the quasi-deviation is greater than 1. O / zm.
- the isotropic texturing method is a method of forming a surface uneven structure by chemical etching based on the surface state of a polycrystalline silicon substrate damaged during slicing. Therefore, the substrate from which such a damaged layer has been removed has a problem that the formation of the surface uneven structure is insufficient. In addition, since the state of the damaged layer formed in the slicing process is not constant, when such a polycrystalline silicon substrate is treated by the above-described method, there is a problem that the variation in quality of a product is amplified. .
