Abstract:
There is provided a silver-coated copper powder which can improve the conversion efficiency of a solar cell in comparison with conventional silver-coated copper powders when it is used in an electrically conductive paste used for forming the busbar electrodes of the solar cell, the silver-coated copper powder being capable of producing a solar cell having a high conversion efficiency which is the same degree as that of a solar cell using silver powder, and a method for producing the same. A silver-coated copper powder obtained by coating the surface of a copper powder, which is obtained by the atomizing method or the like, with 5 wt % or more (with respect to the silver-coated copper powder) of a silver containing layer of silver or a silver compound, is added to a cyanide solution, such as a potassium silver cyanide solution, a potassium gold cyanide solution, a potassium cyanide solution or a sodium cyanide solution, to cause the copper powder coated with the silver containing layer to contain 3 to 3000 ppm of cyanogen.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for producing a silver-coated copper powder as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein a surface treating agent is caused to adhere to the surface of the copper powder coated with the silver containing layer, after the copper powder coated with the silver containing layer is caused to contain cyanogen.
