<p>A solar cell includes a rear surface electrode layer (5), a semiconductor layer (3) formed on a surface of rear surface electrode layer (5), a front surface electrode layer (7) formed on a surface of semiconductor layer (3), and a support layer (8) on a surface of rear surface electrode layer (5) at a side opposite the side where semiconductor layer (3) is formed. Semiconductor layer (3) includes at least one p-n junction. A plurality of through holes (16) are provided, which through holes (16) are cavities connecting support layer openings (6c) provided on a surface of support layer (8) at a side opposite the side where rear surface electrode layer (5) is formed with semiconductor layer openings (6b) provided on a surface of semiconductor layer (3) at a side opposite the side where rear surface electrode layer (5) is formed. Front surface electrode layer (7) is formed in a region where semiconductor layer openings (6b) are not provided. A method of manufacturing the solar cell is also disclosed.</p> |
