Abstract

A solar cell includes a substrate; a back electrode layer on the substrate; a light absorbing layer on the back electrode layer; and an impurity doping layer between the light absorbing layer and the transparent electrode layer. In the solar cell, contact resistance during contact of the transparent electrode layer with the back electrode layer is reduced by making an impurity doping amount of the impurity doping layer greater than that of the transparent electrode layer.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments relate to a solar cell and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, embodiments relate to a solar cell with improved efficiency and a method of manufacturing the same. Background technique [0002] Generally, solar cells convert solar energy into electrical energy. Recently, with the increase in energy consumption, solar cells have been widely used commercially. [0003] A solar cell may be formed by laminating a back electrode layer, a light absorbing layer, and a transparent electrode layer on a transparent glass substrate so that the back electrode layer can be electrically connected to the transparent electrode layer. [0004] However, when the back electrode layer is connected to the transparent electrode layer, the contact resistance between the back electrode layer and the transparent electrode layer increases, thereby reducing the efficiency of the solar cell.
