  • Patent number: 9647161
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a photovoltaic device comprising a photovoltaic cell or a plurality of photovoltaic cells (PV cells) connected to an electronic integrated circuit having at least one electrical contact area. A stack comprising the PV cell(s) is produced separately from the electronic integrated circuit, the electronic integrated circuit is then transferred to said stack comprising the PV cell(s). During this transfer, connection areas carried by the PV cell(s) are brought into contact with matching connection areas carried by the electronic integrated circuit.

  • Patent number: 9028138
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a heat source, a heat-absorbing cold point, a thermally insulating material for insulating the heat source from the cold point with a conductivity at a use-temperature of electronic device, that is below a thermal-conductivity threshold, and a thermal bridge having first and second ends connected by pads to the heat source and the cold point, and a thermal switch. The thermal bridge extends between the two ends and switches reversibly between conductive and non-conductive states. It includes material of variable thermal conductivity capable of switching over, in response to an addition of energy, between a conductive phase and a resistive phase, and a control module for causing the thermal switch to switch between the conductive state and the resistive state.
