Patent ID: 11227961

Abstract:
There is provided a photoelectric conversion device which can prevent the contact resistance between a non-crystalline semiconductor layer containing impurities and an electrode formed on the non-crystalline silicon layer from increasing, and can improve the element characteristics. A photoelectric conversion element (10) includes a silicon substrate (12), a first non-crystalline semiconductor layer (20n), a second non-crystalline semiconductor layer (20p), a first electrode (22n), and a second electrode (22p). One electrode (22n) includes first conductive layers (26n, 26p), and second conductive layers (28n, 28p). The first conductive layers (26n, 26p) have a first metal as a main component. The second conductive layers (28n, 28p) contain a second metal which is more likely to be oxidized than the first metal, are formed to be in contact with the first conductive layers (26n, 26p), and are disposed to be closer to the silicon substrate (12) than the first conductive layers (26n, 26p).
