Abstract
A solar cell includes: a cell main body part including a back electrode and a photoelectric conversion section, the back electrode being arranged on a back surface of the photoelectric conversion section; and a metal film disposed in contact with the back electrode of the cell main body part. The back electrode includes a plurality of projections or recesses with an arithmetic mean roughness of more than 0.1 μm. The metal film has an arithmetic mean roughness of more than 0.1 μm on a surface contacting the back electrode. The metal film covers at least 10% of a back surface of the cell main body part.
