Problems solved by technology

Since the application of the layers usually takes place under vacuum conditions, whereas the construction of the separation lines takes place spatially separated therefrom under air conditions, the production process according to the prior art requires a complex process (Prozessfuehrung)
Furthermore, during the usual introduction into and out of vacuum there is the risk of introducing contaminants between the layers of the solar cell

Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 The layer structure of a thin-film solar cell module according to the prior art is shown schematically. A first electrode 2 , a photosensitive layer sequence 3 and a second electrode 4 are applied to the substrate 1 . The first electrode 2 , the photoactive layer sequence 3 and the second electrode 4 are interrupted laterally by separating lines 10 , 11 , 12 . Three separation lines 10, 11, 12 are laterally spaced from each other on their sides and divide the shown part of the thin-film solar cell module into a first segment 5 to the left of the separation line 10, a second segment 7 to the right of the separation line 12, and a The contact area 6 in between.

[0028] Usually, the electrodes 2 , 4 and the photoactive layer sequence 3 in thin-film solar cell modules are applied in a vacuum process. For this, PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) processes such as plasma sputtering or electrode beam evaporation, or CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) processes such as L...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for production of a thin-film solar cell module having a multiplicity of segments (5, 7) which are arranged on a common substrate (1) and are connected electrically in series. The invention also relates to corresponding thin-film solar cell modules and to a production line which is suitable for carrying out the production method. The method has steps for application of layers to the substrate (1) in order to form at least one electrode (2, 4), and a photo-active layer sequence (3), and has steps for structuring of applied layers and / or layers to be applied, in order to form the multiplicity of segments (5, 7). At least one electrode (2, 4) and one photo-active layer sequence (3) are applied before carrying out steps for structuring.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the patent application with the application number 200880024175.9 entitled "Thin Film Solar Cell Module and Manufacturing Method" submitted to the China Patent Office on January 11, 2010. technical field [0002] The invention relates to a method for producing a thin-film solar cell module with a plurality of segments arranged on a common substrate and electrically connected in series. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding thin-film solar cell module and a production line suitable for carrying out the production method. Background technique [0003] Thin-film solar cell modules (also called thin-film photovoltaic modules) have photosensitive layers with layer thicknesses in the order of micrometers. Here, the semiconductor material used in the photosensitive layer can be amorphous or microcrystalline. For example, in the case of so-called tandem cells and so-called triple-junction cells, combinations of ...
