Abstract

A method for manufacturing thin film solar cells, includes forming a light permeable first electrode layer in the back light surface of a glass substrate, and formed in the first electrode layer a plurality of first openings for exposing a part of the back light surface therefrom; forming a photoelectric conversion layer on the first electrode layer and the exposed back light surface, and forming a plurality of second openings in the photoelectric conversion layer for exposing a part of the first electrode layer therefrom; and forming a glistening second electrode layer having a plurality of third openings formed therein, wherein the second electrode layer comprises a conductive colloid comprised of non-diffractive fillings and polymeric base material.
