Abstract

A substrate for amorphous silicon solar cells comprises an aluminum or aluminum alloy plate which is formed on at least one surface thereof with an oxalic acid anodized film in an unsealed state and having a thickness of 1 to 20 .mu.m. A plurality of amorphous silicon solar cells provided on the substrate include lower electrodes of chrominum or the like which are formed on the anodized film. The lower electrodes are electrically insulated from one another by the anodized film.
