  • Publication number: 20230290894
    Abstract: A photovoltaic cell may include a substrate configured as a single light absorption region. The cell may include at least one first semiconductor region and at least one second semiconductor region arranged on or in the substrate. The cell may include a plurality of first conductive contacts arranged on the substrate and physically separated from one another and a plurality of second conductive contacts arranged on the substrate and physically separated from one another. Each first conductive contact may be configured to facilitate electrical connection with the at least one first semiconductor region. Each second semiconductor conductive contact may be configured to facilitate electrical connection with the at least one second semiconductor region. Each of the first conductive contacts may form at least one separate cell partition with at least one of the second conductive contacts, thereby forming a plurality of cell partitions on or in the substrate.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20190371950
    Abstract: A photovoltaic cell may include a substrate configured as a single light absorption region. The photovoltaic cell may include a plurality of first semiconductor regions arranged on or in the substrate and physically separated from one another. Each first semiconductor region may form one of a plurality of collecting junctions with the single light absorbing region. The photovoltaic cell may include a plurality of second semiconductor regions arranged on or in the substrate and physically separated from one another. Each second semiconductor region forming one of a plurality of high-low junctions with the single light absorbing region. Each of the first semiconductor regions may form at least one separate cell partition with at least one of the second semiconductor regions, thereby forming a plurality of cell partitions on or in the substrate.
