The electronic band structure of amorphous silicon is complex due to its disordered structure, which has some similarities and great differences with the crystal band.
View Details
The silicon atoms in amorphous cells are not arranged in crystal lattices, but continuous disordered networks. The atoms are deposited in this arrangement by allowing ionised silicon gas to form a solid

Typically, amorphous silicon thin-film cells use a p-i-n structure. The placement of the p-type layer on top is also due to the lower hole mobility, allowing the holes to traverse a shorter average distance for
