Abstract
In a photovoltaic element sequentially comprising at least an amorphous semiconductive layer of one conductivity type and an amorphous semiconductive layer of the other conductivity type on a surface of a transparent conductive film, the transparent conductive film includes a surface region having a lower crystalline property on a surface side than that in an inner portion and the amorphous semiconductive layer of one conductivity type is formed on the surface region. An excellent ohmic property is obtained between the transparent conductive film and the amorphous semiconductive layer of one conductivity type.
