摘要:
A method for encapsulating photovoltaic cells into single functional units is described. These units share the mechanical and electric properties of the encapsulation layers and allow for flexible module architecture to be implemented at the cell level. This enables cost reduction and improved performance of photovoltaic power generation.

摘要:
A template for growth of an anticipated semiconductor film has a deformation textured substrate. The template also has an intermediate epitaxial film coupled to the deformation textured substrate, the intermediate epitaxial film being chemically compatible and substantially lattice matched with the anticipated semiconductor film. A method of manufacturing a template for the growth of an anticipated semiconductor is also disclosed. A substrate is deformed to produce a textured surface. An intermediate epitaxial film, chemically compatible and substantially lattice matched with the anticipated semiconductor film, is deposited. A further disclosed photovoltaic device has a semiconductor layer, a deformation textured substrate, and an intermediate epitaxial film coupled to the deformation textured substrate. The intermediate epitaxial film is chemically compatible and substantially lattice matched with the semiconductor layer. The semiconductor layer is epitaxially grown on the intermediate epitaxial film.
