Verfahren zum Herstellen einer Solarbatterie

摘要

A method of manufacturing a solar battery by serially connecting a plurality of solar battery elements arranged spaced from each other. A pair of flexible films are used to sandwich the arrangement of the solar battery elements, and each of the flexible films has a plurality of conductive members formed thereon at positions respectively corresponding to the solar battery elements. However, each conductive member has one end portion extended beyond the surface of the corresponding solar battery element in the direction of the alignment of the solar battery elements. Thus, when the pair of flexible films are disposed to sandwich the solar battery elements, the extended end portion of the conductive member on the side of the light receiving surface of one solar battery element is positioned in the space between adjacent solar battery elements opposite the end portion of the conductive member on the side of the back surface of the next solar battery element. By welding both end portions of the conductive members by, for example, a laser beam, the adjacent solar battery elements are successively connected in series.
