Abstract

See full text

Provided is: a process for producing safely at low cost a semiconductor substrate excellent in photoelectric transduction efficiency, in which a fine uneven structure suitable for a solar cell can be formed uniformly with desired size on the surface of the semiconductor substrate; a semiconductor substrate for solar application in which a uniform and fine pyramid-shaped uneven structure is provided uniformly within the surface thereof; and an etching solution for forming a semiconductor substrate having a uniform and fine uneven structure. A semiconductor substrate is etched with the use of an alkali etching solution containing at least one kind selected from the group consisting of carboxylic acids having a carbon number of 1 to 12 and having at least one carboxyl group in a molecule, and salts thereof, to thereby form an uneven structure on the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
