Abstract: A configuration for electrically coupling photovoltaic roof tiles together is described herein. Specific embodiments for describing redundant connections between the photovoltaic roof tiles are described. In particular, a junction box on each photovoltaic roof tile includes a two cable terminals that are electrically coupled together by a diode. One of the cable terminals is electrically coupled to two cables that run in parallel to a junction box on another photovoltaic roof tile and is also coupled to internal circuitry of the photovoltaic roof tile. The diode allows the internal circuitry to be bypassed through a bypass cable for safety purposes.

Abstract: One embodiment can provide a photovoltaic roof tile (200). The photovoltaic roof tile can include a transparent front cover (204), a transparent back cover (206), and a plurality of polycrystalline-Si- based photovoltaic structures (202) positioned between the front cover and the back cover. A respective polycrystalline-Si-based photovoltaic structure has a front surface facing the front cover and a back surface facing the back cover. The photovoltaic roof tile further includes a paint layer (212) positioned on a back surface of the back cover facing away from the front cover. A color of the paint layer substantially matches a color of the front surface of the respective polycrystalline-Si-based photovoltaic structure.

Abstract: Energy harvesting devices and methods for converting the mechanical energy of a flowing ionic solution, such as rainwater or seawater, into electric energy are provided. The energy harvesting devices include an electric current generating device that includes a metal layer and an amphoteric metal oxide film disposed over a surface of the metal layer. By moving an electric double layer across the surface of the amphoteric metal oxide film, an electric current is generated in the metal layer.
