Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a photoelectric conversion device comprising:preparing a common substrate having a front surface and a rear surface wherein said substrate comprises an organic material; preparing a plurality of series connected photovoltaic elements integrated on said common substrate, each of said photovoltaic elements comprising a first electrode formed on the front surface of the common substrate, a photoelectric conversion semiconductor layer provided on the first electrode, and a second electrode formed on the photoelectric conversion semiconductor layer; opening at least one hole through said common substrate and through a semiconductor layer which is formed from a same layer as said photoelectric conversion semiconductor layer; forming an output terminal on the rear surface of said common substrate; and forming a conductive layer over said semiconductor layer and into said hole, wherein said output terminal is electrically connected with the second electrode of one of said series connected photovoltaic elements through said conductive layer.
