发明名称 PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
摘要 A photovoltaic device is presented that comprises a stack of layers including a first electrode layer (40), a second electrode layer (60), and a photo-active layer (50) arranged between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. The first electrode layer (40) comprises at least an electric support layer (41) with a first structure of electrically conductive electrode lines (42A, 42B) and with a second structure of electrically conductive collector lines (44A, 44B) that are relatively wide with respect to said electrode lines (42A, 42B). The electrode lines (42A, 42B) and the collector lines (44A, 44B) are arranged in the plane of the electric support layer. The photovoltaic device has a plurality of photovoltaic modules (A, B, ...) that each comprise a respective lateral portion of said stack of layers. A lateral portion comprises a first electrode layer portion (40A, 40B) with an electric support layer portion (41A, 41B) of the first electrode layer (40), comprises a second electrode layer portion (60A, 60B) of the second electrode layer (60), and comprises a photo-active layer portion (50A, 50B) of the photo-active layer (50). The electric support layer portions (41A, 41B) have a respective portion of the first structure and a respective portion of the second structure electrically connected to said respective portion of the first structure. The photovoltaic modules are arranged in a series connection wherein mutually subsequent photovoltaic modules are coupled by an electric connection from a collector line (44A) of a first electrode layer portion (40A) of a first one of said mutually subsequent photovoltaic modules (A) to a second electrode layer portion (60B) of a second one (B) of said mutually subsequent photovoltaic modules. At least one conditional electric bypass element (30) is mounted against the electric support layer (41). The conditional electric bypass element has a first and a second terminal (31, 32) that are respectively connected to a respective collector line (44A, 44B) of mutually different, neighbouring electric support layer portions (41A, 41B). The conditional electric bypass element (30) has a conditionally electrically conductive channel (35) between said first and said second terminal.
