| 20110201143 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A THIN FILM SOLAR CELL MODULE - A method for manufacturing a thin film solar cell module including at least a first and a second thin film solar cell, includes the steps of forming a first and a second back contact on a substrate. The active CIGS layer, or the absorber layer, and a window layer that extends over the first and the second back contacts is then deposited in a vacuum equipment. To form solar cells electrically isolated from each other, a first portion of the absorber layer and the window layer is separated from a second portion of the absorber layer the window layer. To connect the thin film solar cells in series, an electrical interconnection between the first portion of the window layer and the second back contact is formed by selectively transforming a third portion of the absorber layer to an electrically conductive compound. | 08-18-2011 |

| 20100233841 | THIN-FILM SOLAR CELL - Thin-film solar cells of the CIGS-type use two integrally formed buffer layers, a first ALD Zn(O,S) buffer layer on top of the CIGS-layer and a second ALD ZnO-buffer layer on top of the first buffer layer. Both buffer layers are deposited in the same process step using ALD (atom layer deposition). The technology also relates to a method of producing the cell and a process line for manufacturing of the cell structure. | 09-16-2010 |
