The first and the second photovoltaic cells each comprise: a respective photovoltaic conversion region delimited by a respective main front surface and a respective main rear surface opposite to each other; and a respective first electrode structure and a respective second electrode structure, which are formed of conductive material and extend respectively on the first and on the main rear surface. The photovoltaic module is characterised in that the connector is made of a composite material comprising a support matrix and electrically conductive particles, which are dispersed in the thermoplastic polymer matrix.

Abstract: In multijunction photovoltaic cells, such as for example tandem solar cells having a top sub-cell and a crystalline silicon based bottom sub-cell, efficiency of conversion of solar energy into electrical energy is limited mainly by the junction between a top sub-cell and a bottom sub-cell of the multijunction photovoltaic cell. A multijunction photovoltaic cell of this disclosure at least partially overcomes this drawback because it has an intermediate layer of silicon nitride deposited in a conformal manner with a thickness of between 1 and 10 nm so as to define a P-N tunnel junction between the top sub-cell and the bottom sub-cell. A related fabrication process is also disclosed.
