Abstract
A photovoltaic device capable of obtaining a high open circuit voltage, in which crystallization of a semiconductor is accelerated from the first stage of formation thereof such that a thin layer of the semiconductor is crystallized, by doping an electrode disposed between the semiconductor and a substrate with an element which reacts with an element in the semiconductor to accelerate crystallization of the semiconductor or by disposing a film made from a compound doped with said element between the semiconductor and the substrate.
