Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a substrate with a transparent conductive film for a solar cell, a solar cell, and a method of manufacturing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a substrate, a solar cell, and a solar cell with a transparent conductive film for a solar cell which can form a fine texture having a high degree of freedom and a desired roughness in a transparent conductive film containing a ZnO-based material. And other manufacturing methods. The present application is based on and claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-21407, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. [Prior Art] If the energy particles called photons contained in sunlight touch the enamel layer, electrons and holes are generated due to the photovoltaic effect, and the electrons move toward the 11th layer and the holes move toward the P layer. The electrons generated by the photovoltaic effect are taken out by the upper electrode and the back electrode, and the element that converts light energy into electrical energy is a solar cell. Figure 20 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an amorphous germanium solar cell. In the solar cell, the following components are laminated: a glass substrate 构成1 constituting the surface, an upper electrode 1〇3 of a transparent conductive film containing zinc oxide provided on the glass substrate 101, and an upper battery formed of a non-BS 矽1〇5, an intermediate electrode 1〇7 including a transparent conductive film between the upper layer battery 1〇5 and the lower layer battery 109 described below, a lower layer battery 1G9 composed of a microcrystalline stone, and a buffer layer 11 including a transparent conductive film. 〇, and the back electrode lu containing the metal film. The upper battery 105 is constructed by a three-layer structure of a P layer 〇〇5p) 'i layer (10〇5i) and an η layer (105η), wherein the i layer (105i) is formed by amorphous austenite. The lower layer battery 109 is also the same as the upper layer battery 1Q5, and is composed of a p layer ((10)p), a layer ((10) 〇, a layer 153816.doc 201133889 (109η), and the i layer (i〇9i) is microcrystal. In the solar cell 100, sunlight incident from the side of the glass substrate 101 passes through the upper electrode 103, the upper battery 105 (pin layer), and the buffer layer 11〇, and is reflected by the back electrode 111. In order to improve the conversion efficiency of light energy, it is called to use the back electrode 11 1 to reflect sunlight, or to set the upper electrode 101 to extend the effect of the light path of the incident sunlight and the light blocking effect. The structure of the texture, etc. The buffer layer 11 is designed to prevent the diffusion of the metal film used for the back surface electrode 111. The component structure of the solar cell is different, 'the wavelength band used for the photovoltaic effect is different' but is transparent to the upper electrode. In the case of a conductive film, the nature of transmitted light and the electrical conductivity of electrons generated by photovoltaics are required. Therefore, FTO or ZnO-based oxide semiconductor thin film in which fluorine is added as an impurity in Sn02 has been used. For the buffer layer, the properties and electrical conductivity of the transmitted light are also required. The characteristics required for the transparent conductive film used in solar cells are roughly classified into three factors: conductivity, optical properties, and texture structure. Regarding the conductivity of the first element, In order to take out the generated electricity, a lower resistance is required. Generally, the FTO used for a transparent conductive film for a solar cell is in a transparent conductive film produced by CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) in Sn 〇 2 F is added to obtain conductivity by replacing yttrium with F. Further, a ZnO-based material which is highly regarded as post ITO can be formed by sputtering, by adding an oxygen-deficient or material containing A1 or Ga to Conductivity is obtained in ZnO. Secondly, since the transparent conductive film for solar cells is mainly applied to the incident light side, the optical characteristics of the wavelength band absorbed by the power generation layer are required. In order to utilize the power generation layer to efficiently absorb sunlight, it is necessary to scatter the texture of the light. Generally, the Zn-based film produced by the sputtering process has a flat surface state. It is necessary to form a texture on the transparent substrate or to form a texture on the transparent electrode. The substrate with the transparent conductive film formed by disposing the textured transparent conductive film on the transparent substrate has been used by various glass manufacturers and the like. Development (for example, refer to Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, the substrate of the transparent conductive film generally sold in advance defines the texture shape of the surface of the transparent conductive film, and the degree of freedom of selection is low, and it is difficult to obtain a desired roughness. A substrate having a transparent conductive film with a fine texture.

[Embodiment] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the solar cell of the present invention and a method for producing the same will be described based on the drawings. It is to be noted that the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the gist of the invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto unless otherwise specified. (Solar cell) &lt;First Embodiment&gt; The solar cell 1A(1) of the first embodiment of the present invention uses an amorphous germanium type solar cell as the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 (upper (four) cell), and uses a microcrystalline stone type. The solar cell is used as the second photoelectric conversion unit 7 (lower battery), and the stacked solar cells are stacked. First, the solar cell 1 (I) of the present embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1 . Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of the configuration of the solar cell (1). In the solar cell 1A (1), there are laminated members: an insulating transparent substrate 2 including a glass substrate or the like constituting the surface, and a transparent conductive film 4 comprising 153816.doc -11-201133889 zinc oxide based on the transparent substrate 2. The upper electrode 3, one of the photoelectric conversion units 6 made of amorphous germanium, the second photoelectric conversion unit 7 made of microcrystalline germanium, the buffer layer U including the transparent conductive film, and the metal-containing <back surface electrode 12. The transparent substrate 2 and the transparent conductive film 4 provided on the transparent substrate 2 constitute a substrate 1A with a transparent conductive film. The transparent conductive film 4 is formed into a film by the following production method, thereby having a fine texture of a desired roughness. Thereby, the solar cell has a high effect of converting the effect of the enamel effect and the light encapsulation effect obtained by the texture. Further, the solar cell 1 is an a-Si/microcrystalline Si stacked solar cell. In the solar cell 1 of such a stacked structure, the short-wavelength light is absorbed by the first photoelectric conversion unit 6, and the long-wavelength light is absorbed by the second photoelectric conversion unit 7, whereby the power generation efficiency can be improved. Further, the film thickness of the upper electrode 3 is formed by a film thickness of 2,000 Å to 10,000 Å. The first photoelectric conversion unit 6 is configured by a three-layer structure of a p layer (6p), an i layer (6i), and an n layer (6n). The p layers (6p), the i layers (6i), and the n layers (6n) are formed. It is formed by amorphous germanium. Further, the second photoelectric conversion unit 7 is also configured in the same manner as the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 in a three-layer structure of a p layer (7p), an i layer (7i), and an n layer (7n), and the p layers (7p), The i layer (7i) and the η layer (7n) are formed by microcrystalline germanium. In particular, the solar cell 1A (1) of the present embodiment is characterized in that a crystalline film containing a ruthenium film is disposed between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p layer (6p) constituting the photoelectric conversion unit. The p layer (the second p layer) serves as the intermediate layer 5. 153816.doc • 12· 201133889 In the present embodiment, a p-layer containing a crystalline lanthanoid film is disposed between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p-layer (6p) constituting the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 (2p) Since the layer is the intermediate layer 5, the mismatch of the interface between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p layer (6p) containing the amorphous lanthanoid film can be alleviated. Thereby, the fill factor (FF) of the first photoelectric conversion unit can be increased. As a result, the solar cell 1 A(1) of the present embodiment can exhibit a high conversion efficiency. In the solar cell 1A(1) having such a configuration, if the energy particles called photons contained in the sunlight touch the i-layer, electrons and holes are generated by the photovoltaic effect, and the electrons are directed toward the n-layer and the electricity. The hole moves towards the mouth layer. The upper electrode 3 and the back electrode 12 can be used to extract light energy generated by the photovoltaic effect into electrical energy. Further, the sunlight incident from the side of the transparent substrate 2 passes through the respective layers and is reflected by the back surface electrode 12. In order to increase the conversion efficiency of the light energy, the solar cell is used to extend the light path of the sunlight incident on the upper electrode 3. The texture structure for the purpose of the effect and the light blocking effect. As described below, when the transparent conductive film 4 constituting the upper electrode 3 is formed, a material having a composition of ΖηΟ as a base material is used as a base material to form a transparent conductive film on the transparent substrate 2, and then transparent. The conductive film 4 is wet-etched to form a fine texture on the surface. At this time, the shape of the texture can be controlled by changing various conditions of the wet money. Thereby, a fine texture having a high degree of freedom and having a desired thick chain degree can be formed. As a result, in the substrate 10 with a transparent conductive film for solar cells thus obtained, a fine texture having a high degree of freedom and having a desired rough degree is formed on the surface of the transparent conductive film 4. Thereby, the 153816.doc -13-201133889 substrate ίο with a transparent conductive film for a solar cell can sufficiently obtain the effect of the ruthenium obtained by the texture structure and the sealing effect of light. In particular, in order to appropriately block the light of the wavelength used by the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 and the second photoelectric conversion unit 7, fine texture can be selectively formed. Further, the intermediate electrode 8 may be provided between the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 and the second photoelectric conversion unit 7. By providing the intermediate electrode 8 between the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 and the second photoelectric conversion unit 7, a portion of the light that reaches the second photoelectric conversion unit 7 through the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 is reflected by the intermediate electrode 8, again Incident to the side of the first photoelectric conversion unit 6, the sensitivity characteristic of the battery is improved to contribute to an increase in power generation efficiency. In particular, the intermediate electrode 8 preferably reflects light of a wavelength used in the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 to transmit light of a wavelength used in the second photoelectric conversion unit 7. (Manufacturing Method of Solar Cell) Next, a method of manufacturing the solar cell 1A (1) will be described. The method for producing a solar cell according to the present embodiment is a method for manufacturing a solar cell in which the light-incident-side upper electrode 3 includes a transparent conductive film 4 having a Zn〇 basic structure, and at least sequentially performs the following steps: In the middle of the 'targeting material of the base material of the transparent conductive film 4, a sputtering magnetic field is applied, and a horizontal magnetic field is generated on the surface of the target to perform sputtering, and the transparent conductive film 4 is formed on the transparent substrate 2; The transparent conductive film 4 is wet-engraved to form a fine texture on the surface of the transparent conductive film 4; the intermediate layer 5 is formed on the transparent conductive film 4; and the first photoelectric conversion is sequentially formed on the intermediate layer 5 The p layer (6p), the germanium layer (6i) and the n layer (6n) of the unit 6. At this time, as the above-mentioned base material, a material containing & Zn 〇 as a main component (7 % I53816.doc 201133889 or more) was used. In the method of manufacturing the solar cell 1A (1) of the present embodiment, when the transparent conductive film 4 is formed, a material having Zn0 as a main component is used as a base material for sputtering, thereby forming a transparent conductive film 4 on the transparent substrate 2. Then, the transparent conductive film 4 is wet-etched to form a fine texture on the surface. At this time, the shape of the texture can be controlled by changing various conditions of the wet etching. Thereby, the fine texture having a relatively small degree of freedom and having a desired coarse sugar degree can be obtained, so that the solar cell 1A (1) having the texture structure can be obtained. This texture structure brings about a prism effect and a light blocking effect suitable for the wavelength of light used in the power generation layer. Therefore, the solar cell 1A(1) of the present embodiment can exhibit high conversion efficiency. Further, in the present embodiment, a p-layer (second p-layer) containing a crystalline lanthanoid film is formed as the intermediate layer 5 between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p-layer (6p) constituting the first photoelectric conversion unit 6. In the present embodiment, a p-layer (second p-layer) containing a crystalline lanthanoid film is formed between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p-layer π&quot; which constitutes the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 and includes an amorphous lanthanoid thin film. As the intermediate layer 5, the mismatch of the interface between the transparent conductive film 4 and the p layer (6p) containing the amorphous slab film can be alleviated. Thereby, the fill factor (FF) of the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 can be increased. As described above, in the solar cell 1A(1)f of the present embodiment, by inserting the intermediate layer 5, the FF can be increased, the power generation efficiency of the first photoelectric conversion unit 6 can be improved, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the entire device can be improved. As a result, in the method for producing a solar cell according to the present embodiment, the effect of encapsulation obtained by the texture structure and the effect of blocking light can be obtained by a knife, and the solar cell 1A (1) having high conversion efficiency can be produced. 153816.doc 15 201133889 The thickness of the intermediate layer 5 is, for example, preferably in the range of 5 to 10 nm. For example, it can be set that the thickness of the nm intermediate layer 5 is in the range of 5 to 1 〇 nm2, and the effect of increasing the fill factor (FF) and voltage (voc) and increasing the photoelectric conversion efficiency can be seen.
