Solar Cell and Method for Manufacturing the Same

Abstract

Disclosed is a solar cell and a method for manufacturing the same, which facilitates to prevent residual matters from remaining between first and second electrodes, to minimize a substrate-sagging problem even though plural layers are deposited on a substrate under high-temperature conditions, and to minimize the number of times of laser-scribing process. The solar cell comprises a substrate including a through-hole; a first electrode on one surface of the substrate, wherein one end of the first electrode is extended to an inner surface of the through-hole; a semiconductor layer on the first electrode; a second electrode on the semiconductor layer, wherein one end of the second electrode is extended to the inner surface of the through-hole; and a connecting portion for electrically connecting the one end of the first electrode with the one end of the second electrode.
