Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a solar cell includes forming an emitter layer on a first surface of a substrate, forming a back surface field layer on a second surface opposite the first surface of the substrate, forming a first anti-reflection layer on the emitter layer, forming a second anti-reflection layer on the back surface field layer, and forming a plurality of first electrodes each including a first metal seed layer and a first conductive layer on a plurality of first contact regions of the first anti-reflection film and a plurality of second electrodes each including a second metal seed layer and a second conductive layer on a plurality of second contact regions of the second anti-reflection film, the plurality of first contact regions being partially formed at the first anti-reflection layer and each having a first width.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for manufacturing a solar cell, the method comprising:\n forming an emitter layer on a first surface of a substrate; forming a back surface field layer on a second surface opposite the first surface of the substrate; forming a first anti-reflection layer on the emitter layer; forming a second anti-reflection layer on the back surface field layer; and forming a plurality of first electrodes each including a first metal seed layer and a first conductive layer on a plurality of first contact regions of the first anti-reflection layer and a plurality of second electrodes each including a second metal seed layer and a second conductive layer on a plurality of second contact regions of the second anti-reflection layer, the plurality of first contact regions being partially formed at the first anti-reflection layer and each having a first width, and the plurality of second contact regions being partially formed at the second anti-reflection layer and each having a second width larger than the first width, wherein the forming of the plurality of first electrodes and the plurality of second electrodes includes: forming the first metal seed layer at the plurality of first contact regions and the second metal seed layer at the plurality of second contact regions by a plating method or a vacuum method, such as a sputtering method or an electron beam evaporation method, forming a first copper layer having a first thickness on the first metal seed layer and a second copper layer having a second thickness on the second metal seed layer by a plating method, and forming a first tin layer having a third thickness smaller than the first thickness on the first copper layer and a second tin layer having a fourth thickness on the second copper layer by a plating method, and wherein the first conductive layer includes the first copper layer and the first tin layer, and the second conductive layer includes the second copper layer and the second tin layer.
