    Abstract: A lead-free silver-free solder alloy may comprise tin, copper, bismuth, cobalt, and antimony. Alternatively, the alloy may comprise gallium in lieu of cobalt. The alloy may further comprise nickel, germanium, or both. The copper may be present in an amount from about 0.5% to 0.9% by weight of the solder. The bismuth may be present in an amount from about 1.0% to about 3.5% by weight of the solder. The cobalt may be present in an amount from about 0.02% to about 0.08% by weight of the solder. Where gallium is used in lieu of cobalt, the gallium may be present in an amount from about 0.2% to about 0.8% by weight of the solder. The antimony may be present in an amount between about 0.0% to about 0.09% by weight of the solder. The balance of the solder is tin.

    Abstract: A method of fabricating a solar module by interconnection of a plurality of photovoltaic (PV) cells in which at least a first PV cell is interconnected to a second PV cell using an electrically-conductive adherent comprising or consisting of a solder paste. The solder paste comprises particles of solder alloy dispersed in a solder flux. The solder alloy comprises a Sn-containing solder alloy having a liquidus temperature of less than 225° C.
