Abstract
A sun light electricity generator comprising an amorphous sun light battery, which comprises: a conductive substrate which also constitutes an output electrode; amorphous semiconductor layers provided on the substrate, said layers constituting a p-i-n junction structure for a sun battery element and for a protection diode; an electrode for the sun battery element and an electrode for the protection diode, both provided on the light incident amorphous layer but separated from each other; and an electrode for connection to another generator provided on a region of the substrate where the amorphous layers are not provided.
