A photovoltaic cell manufacturing method includes: forming a photoelectric converter which has a plurality of compartment elements that are separated by a scribing line and in which adjacent compartment elements are electrically connected; detecting a structural defect existing in the compartment element; specifying a position in which the structural defect exists, as distance data indicating a distance between the structural defect and the scribing line that is closest to the structural defect; and removing a region in which the structural defect exists based on the distance data. |
