Abstract: A method for manufacturing a photovoltaic module having at least one photovoltaic cell includes a step of encapsulating the photovoltaic cell including the formation of a stack having the photovoltaic cell; an encapsulation film based on a polymer material cross-linked at least at its freezing point; and an adhesion layer based on a crosslinkable polymer material. The adhesion layer is configured to adhere the encapsulation film to the photovoltaic cell. The manufacturing method also includes a cross-linking step including cross-linking the crosslinkable polymer material of the adhesion layer.

Abstract: An optical angular filter includes a network of pillars made of a first transparent material, and an array of walls made of a second opaque material, separating the pillars from one another. The refraction index of the second material is different from that of the first material.

Abstract: A method for binding photovoltaic cells to a substrate, each photovoltaic cell comprising a rear face and a front face, comprises: providing the substrate, said substrate being flexible and impregnable; impregnating portions of the substrate with a crosslinkable polymer material, said portions being impregnated along the thickness of the substrate, with a view to bonding the photovoltaic cells to the substrate; bringing the rear faces of the photovoltaic cells into contact with the impregnated portions of the substrate; crosslinking the crosslinkable polymer material.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a concentrating photovoltaic solar sub-module equipped with a reflective face having a concave predefined geometric shape, wherein it includes laminating, in a single step, a multi-layer assembly comprising in succession: a structural element equipped with a reflective first face and a second face, opposite the first; a layer of a material of good thermal conductivity, higher than that of the material from which the structural element is composed, the layer being placed on the second face of the structural element; a layer of encapsulant or of adhesive; a photovoltaic receiver, the layer of encapsulant or of adhesive being placed between the layer of a material of good thermal conductivity and the receiver; a layer made of transparent encapsulating material, covering at least the entire surface of the photovoltaic receiver; and a transparent protective layer covering the layer made of transparent encapsulating material; and during the lamination, the reflective face of the structura
