Abstract
Disclosed herein are a solar cell module and a method for manufacturing the same. The solar cell module comprises: a substrate; and a plurality of solar cells located on the substrate, each solar cell comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and a photoactive layer located between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein at least a portion of a second electrode is located on a photoactive layer of a neighboring solar cell, and a conductive channel is located between the second electrode and a first electrode of the neighboring solar cell. Therefore, a solar cell module having a structure in which every layer except for electrodes is entirely formed as a thin film may be provided. In addition, a solar cell module the module efficiency of which is improved by increasing the active area of each solar cell may be provided.
