An integrated photovoltaic generator 10 comprises a plurality of identical photovoltaic cells connected in series, the generator capable of producing a voltage greater than that generated by a single photovoltaic cell of comparable chemical composition. The generator comprises a wafer 12 of semiconductor material having two major surfaces 14, 16, at least one of the major surfaces 14 including a plurality of discrete areas 18 containing an impurity of one type of conductivity, at least the portion 20 of the remainder of the wafer contiguous to the areas containing an impurity of an opposite conductivity type, and electrical conductor means 24 between at least one area and the portion of the wafer containing the impurity of the opposite conductivity type. <IMAGE> |
