Abstract

A solar cell includes: a first electrode layer formed on a substrate; a generating layer formed on the first electrode layer; and a second electrode layer formed on the generating layer, at least one of the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer being a metal electrode layer having optical transparency, the metal electrode layer having a plurality of openings that penetrate through the metal electrode layer. The metal electrode layer includes metal parts, any two metal parts of the metal electrode layer continues to each other without a cut portion, the metal electrode layer has a film thickness in the range of 10 nm to 200 nm, and sizes of the openings are equal to or smaller than 1/2 of the wavelength of light to be used for generating electricity.
