MANUFACTURE OF PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE

Japanese Patent JPS6059786

A

PURPOSE:To obtain a photovoltaic device which uses a curved surface insulating surface such as a roof tiles having solar cells as a substrate by patterning a filmy photoelectric converting region covered directly on the nonplane insulating surface of the substrate in parallel with the edge line of the curved surface by emitting an energy beam to divide into a plurality of photoelectric converting regions. CONSTITUTION:A transparent conductive film 3 made of laminated structure of oxidized indium tin and oxidized tin covered directly by electron beam deposition on the entire surface of a curved surface insulating surface which includes a plurality of photoelectric converting regions 2, 2,... in the state that the peripheral edge of a substrate 1 is covered with a mask is divided into the regions 2, 2,... by emitting the energy beam 8 such as a laser beam. In this case, the X- axis direction of an X-Y-Z stage 6 which moves in X-axis, Y-AXIS AND Z-axis directions for placing the substrate 1 is allowed to coincide with the direction of the edge line 7 on the surface of the substrate 1, and the beam 8 is emitted in the step of moving in the X-axis direction. After transparent conductive films 3, 3,... are patterned in parallel with the edge line 7 of the curved surface, it is moved to the step of covering an amorphous semiconductor film 4.
