A solar cell is provided as one capable of increasing the open voltage when compared with the conventional solar cells. A solar cell according to the present invention has a p-type semiconductor layer containing a group Ib element, a group IIIb element, and a group VIb element, and an n-type semiconductor layer containing a group Ib element, a group IIIb element, a group VIb element, and Zn and formed on the p-type semiconductor layer. A content of the group Ib element in the n-type semiconductor layer is from 15 to 21 at. % to the total number of atoms of the group Ib element, the group IIIb element, the group VIb element, and Zn in the n-type semiconductor layer, and a content of Zn in the n-type semiconductor layer is from 0.005 to 1.0 at. % to the total number of atoms of the group Ib element, the group IIIb element, the group VIb element, and Zn in the n-type semiconductor layer.
