Thin-film solar cells are a type of solar cell made by depositing one or more thin layers (thin films or TFs) of photovoltaic material onto a substrate, such as glass, plastic or metal. Thin-film solar cells are typically a few nanometers (nm) to a few microns (μm) thick–much thinner than the wafers used in conventional.

Thin film solar cells are an integral part of the photovoltaic (PV) technology base, whose main goals are to deliver electricity at 12¢/kWh in the year 1995 and 6¢/kWh by the year 2000.
In the recent years, electricity production from renewable energy sources especially solar energy has progressed a great deal. Solar energy is a locally available renewable resource which is the most plentiful, unfailing and clean of all the renewable energy resources till date. A solar cell also called photovoltaic cell or PV is the technology used to convert energy
Solar cells are the electrical devices that directly convert solar energy (sunlight) into electric energy. This conversion is based on the principle of photovoltaic effect in which DC voltage is generated due to flow of electric current between two layers of semiconducting materials (having opposite conductivities) upon exposure to the sunlight [].
Thin films play a critical role in PV in Si and thin film solar cells and solar modules. They can be used as an absorber layer, buffer layer, hole/electron transportation layer, passivation layer, transparent conductive oxide and antireflection coating on
At present, the global photovoltaic (PV) market is dominated by crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell technology, and silicon heterojunction solar (SHJ) cells have been developed rapidly after the concept was proposed, which is one of the most promising technologies for the next generation of passivating contact solar cells, using a c-Si substrate
