<p>A photovoltaic element which directly converts an optical energy such as solar light into an electric energy. After many uneven sections are formed on the surface of an n-type crystalline silicon substrate (1), the surface of the substrate (1) is isotropically etched. Then the bottoms (b) of the recessed sections are rounded and a p-type amorphous silicon layer (3) is formed on the surface of the substrate (1) through an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer (2). The shape of the surface of the substrate (1) after isotropic etching is such that the bottoms of the recessed sections are slightly rounded and therefore the amorphous silicon layer can be deposited in a uniform thickness.</p> |
