Using first-principles calculations within density functional theory, we study the atomic structures and electronic properties of the perfect and defective （2VCu＋ Incu） CulnGaSe2/CdS interfaces theoretically, especially the interface states. We find that the local lattice structure of （2VCu＋ InCu） interface is somewhat disorganized. By analyzing the local density of states projected on several atomic layers of the two interfaces models, we find that for the （2VCu＋InCu） interface the interface states near the Fermi level in CulnGaSe2 and CdS band gap regions are mainly composed of interracial Se-4p, Cu-3d and S-3p orbitals, while for the perfect interface there are no clear interface states in the CulnGaSe2 region but only some interface states which are mainly composed of S-3p orbitals in the valance band of CdS region.
