Abstract: A method of making a monolithic photovoltaic module having a flexible substrate is described. The method includes the following steps. First, a flexible substrate is provided, and a first adhesive layer, a metal layer, and a second adhesive layer are formed thereon. The second adhesive layer, the metal layer and the first adhesive layer are etched with at least one etching paste. In addition, a patterned semiconductor body layer patterned by an etching paste or a laser scribing is formed thereon. Furthermore, transparent top electrodes patterned by an etching paste or a cold laser scribing are formed on the patterned semiconductor body layer.

Abstract: A solar module with a bypass diode integrated therein, fabricated on the basis of the standard thin film solar module. By connecting a series of p-n junction to a non-functional p-n junction in anti-parallel, the non-functional p-n junction in the standard thin film solar module is used as the bypass diode. Hence no additional bypass diode is needed in the design.
