A solar cell includes a first n type layer (2a) formed on the upper surface of a p type silicon substrate (1), a p type layer (7) formed on the back surface of the substrate (1) and having an impurity concentration higher than that of the substrate (1), and a second n type layer (2b, 2c, 2d) formed at least on the side face of the substrate (1) so as to connect the first n type layer (2a) and the p type layer (7). The second n type layer (2b, 2c, 2d) has an impurity concentration lower than that of the first n type layer (2a) around the region in contact with the p type layer (7). <IMAGE> |
