<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method capable of producing a hydrogen-impregnated crystalline semiconductor particle through a simple and safe process, and also to provide a method for producing a photoelectric conversion device having high photoelectric conversion efficiency by using the crystalline semiconductor particle obtained by the above production method. <P>SOLUTION: The crystalline silicon particles 3 are produced by discharging and dropping in a granular state, a silicon melt 11 which is a raw material of the particles 3 and cooling the melt 11 during its drop to coagulate. In this case, the silicon melt 11 is dropped in the atmosphere containing the hydrogen compounds, and is cooled during its drop and coagulated. Thereby, hydrogen is bonded to a dangling bond in a crystal, thus producing the crystalline silicon particle 3 whose crystal defect is inactivated. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
