Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semi-finished product for a module having a cell made from a photoactive material, particularly a solar cell, wherein the method has the following steps: providing a substrate (1), arranging a cell (2; 3) made from a photoactive material on the substrate (1) in such a manner that a light-incidence or light-emission side of the cell (2; 3) faces the substrate (1), constructing an adhesive-compound layer (10), into which the cell (2; 3) and a contact connector (7) formed on a connecting lead of the cell (2; 3) are partially or completely embedded, and constructing a contact region (8), which is formed on the rear side of the substrate (1) with the contact connector (7) formed herein, wherein the contact connector (7) is subsequently exposed again to construct the contact region (8), in that a layer composite arranged on the contact connector (7) is removed, and wherein an adhesion between the contact connector (7) and the adhesive-compound layer (10) arrange
