  • Systems and methods for shingling cells using an adhesive film
    Patent number: 11107939
    Abstract: This disclosure describes various structures, devices, and arrangements that replace a PSA used to hold shingled cells together with an adhesive film. For example, in an aspect, the present disclosure is directed to a shingled arrangement of photovoltaic (PV) cells. In some aspects, the shingled arrangement of PV cells may include a first PV cell, a second PV cell, and an adhesive film placed between a backside the first PV cell and a front side of the second PV cell. The adhesive film may be thermally bonded to the first PV cell and to the second PV cell after the application of localized heat and pressure and holds the first PV cell and the second PV cell together. Additionally, a bus bar of the second PV cell may be electrically connected to the first PV cell by a conductive via formed through the adhesive film.
    Type: Grant

  • Method to fabricate quantum dot field-effect transistors without bias-stress effect
    Patent number: 10224422
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a method to form quantum dot field-effect transistors (QD FETs) having little to no bias-stress effect. Bias-stress effect can be reduced or eliminated through, as an example, the use of a gas or liquid to remove ligands and/or reduce charge trapping on the QD FETs, followed by deposition of an inorganic or organic matrix around the QDs in the FET.
