摘要:
The present invention provides an improved photovoltaic cell assembly (10) that includes at least plurality of photovoltaic calls (20). The cells include a photoactive portion (24) sandwiched between a top electrically conductive structure (28) on some regions of a top surface (28) of the photoactive portion leaving exposed top surface on other regions; and an opposing conductive substrate layer (22). The improved photovoltaic cell assembly also includes a plurality of conductive elements (80); a first encapsulant layer (40) In contact with the top electrically conductive structure and the exposed fop surface of the photoactive portion; and a second encapsulant layer (50) in contact with the opposing conductive substrate layer, the encapsulants holding the conductive elements to the cell layers.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing electrically interconnected solar cell assemblies, including the steps of: positioning at least a first interconnect element (64) in an alignment feature of a top carrier and facing a top surface of a first photovoltaic cell (60); adhering the first interconnect element to a location on the top surface of the first cell, wherein a length of the first interconnect element extends beyond a trailing edge (68) of the first cell; and adhering a portion of the length of the first interconnect element that extends beyond a trailing edge of the first cell to the bottom surface of a second cell (62). In one aspect, a system is provided for assembling solar cell strings, including cell transfer equipment, a bottom pallet including grooves, multiple top pallets including grooves, an adhesive dispensing system, a ribbon supply mechanism, and a system for moving ribbons and top pallets.
