(JP11135817-A)   NOVELTY - A first electrode layer, a semiconductor photoelectric conversion layer and a second electrode layer are formed in this order on a substrate, and a light diffusion layer which has a surface texture including fine unevenness suitable for causing the light diffusion and formed by using a resin including particles, is provided between the substrate and the first electrode layer.    USE - Used in solar cells, especially thin film semiconductor photoelectric converters.    ADVANTAGE - A thin film semiconductor photoelectric converter is provided easily and inexpensively which has a high efficiency of conversion due to light confinement effect.
