  • Publication number: 20130213473
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite substrate with high thermal conductivity and applicable to concentrating solar power generating plates. The thermal conducting substrate and the circuit substrate are manufactured, respectively, for separating the light concentrating area and the circuit area so that the material with high thermal conductivity can be used completely to the thermal conducting substrate for guiding heat. Then, the material having common thermal conductivity can be chosen as the material for the circuit substrate, which needs no extra thermal conduction. Thereby, regarding to the selection of substrate material, the present can balance well between thermal conducting efficiency and cost control.

  • Publication number: 20130214376
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus combining bypass diode and wire. According to the present invention, the bypass diode can connect with the wire directly. It is not necessary to reserve an extra region on the substrate of the solar cell as the wire soldering area. Thereby, the required area of the ceramic substrate is reduced, and hence lowering the manufacturing cost of the solar cell substantially.

  • Patent number: 8263852
    Abstract: A heat sink has a number of fixing frames. The fixing frames are soldered with of solar cell devices. And, the fixing frames are defined with insulating ink. Hence, the fixing frames can be used for insulating and locating the of a solar cell devices. Besides, with the insulating ink, solar cells of the solar cell devices are prevented from being contacted with the heat sink. As a result, a good electrical property is obtained on assembling and using the solar cell devices.
