摘要

An improved large area photovoltaic device includes a plurality of electrically interconnected smaller area cells. The smaller area cells each have a laterally disposed bus bar and are disposed in overlapping relationships so that the bus bar of a given cell is beneath the substrate of the adjacent overlapping cell. In this manner the surface of the resulting large area device available for photovoltaic power generation is maximized. Also disclosed herein are methods for the manufacture of the improved device.
