The electrode pattern on the light-receiving surface of a conventional solar cell element is as shown in FIGS.
It has a structure in which an n + layer 13 is formed, and an antireflection film 4 and a current collecting electrode 2 are formed thereon by a printing method or a vapor deposition method. The pattern of the current collecting electrode 2 is the first
As shown in Figures a and b, bus bar electrodes 7 are formed in the shape of parallel lines or hexagonal meshes, and are used to connect elements in series through interconnector leads. However, with the comb pattern and honeycomb pattern electrodes shown in FIG. 1, it is difficult to make the solder thickness uniform when forming the bus bar electrodes by a solder dipping method or the like. That is, in the solder dipping method, the solder tends to flow downward and become thicker in the pulling direction. For this reason, there is a problem that good adhesion cannot be obtained when interconnector leads are connected. In addition, in consideration of positional misalignment when interconnector leads are connected, it is necessary to make the width of the busbar electrodes larger than the lead width, but doing so increases the area of light shielding and causes a reduction in electrical output. be.

う欠点がある。 FIGS. 2a and 2b show a structure in which the busbar electrode 7 is divided into small pieces to compensate for the above drawback, but since the bonding area between the electrode 7 and the lead is small, the bonding strength is weak.

An n + layer 13 is formed on one main surface (light-receiving surface) 11 of a 0.3 to 0.4 mm p-type single crystal or polycrystalline Si substrate 1 by thermal diffusion or ion implantation, and in contact with this, light is reflected. Ti, Sn, to reduce the rate
A collector electrode 2 is formed on the light-receiving surface by an anti-reflection film 4 such as an oxide and a printing method or a vapor deposition method, and a p + layer 14 and an electrode 3 are further formed on the other main surface (back surface) 12 by an Al printing method or the like. has been done. Fig. 3a shows the case where the electrode 2 has a comb-shaped pattern, and Fig. 3b shows the case where the electrode 2 has a honeycomb pattern. A first pad portion 71 having a width larger than the width of the connector lead, and a second pad electrode 7 located between the first pad portions 71 and having a smaller width than the first pad portion 71.
2 are provided. FIG. 3d is a plan view showing a state in which interconnector leads 9 are connected. The interconnector leads 9 are connected to a first pad section 71 and a second pad section 72, respectively.

ある。 With this structure, since the bus bar electrode 7 is divided into a large number of first and second pad parts 71 and 72, the solder wettability and uniformity are good.
Further, the bonding area between the busbar electrode 7 and the interconnector lead 9 becomes larger due to the addition of the area of the second pad portion 72 to the area of the first pad portion 71, which improves the bonding strength and makes it possible to withstand harsh conditions during the day and night. It is possible to realize a solar cell module that is highly reliable even in cold and hot cycles. Furthermore, in consideration of positional deviation when interconnector lead 9 is connected to busbar electrode 7, the width of busbar electrode 7 is made larger than the width of interconnector lead 9 only in first pad part 71; Since the width of the pad portion 72 is smaller than the width of the interconnector lead 9, there is an effect that shadow loss of light can be reduced.
