Abstract: A device and a method for forming a structure on a workpiece by processing radiation while the workpiece is moved by a transport device, in which correction data of the workpiece are acquired by optical sensors. The correction data includes movement data of the workpiece and/or position data of a structure created on the workpiece by the processing radiation, and, dependent on the correction data, the deflection of processing radiation brought about by a deflection unit is determined, in particular corrected.

Abstract: A method for producing a solar cell string includes: providing a solar cell stack having at least five solar cells which each have a front side and a rear side, the solar cells are arranged in overlapping fashion; and forming electrically conductive connections between the solar cells by: arranging an electrically conductive first connecting element on the solar cell stack and forming electrically conductive connections; dividing the first connecting element into a first group of cell connectors; arranging an electrically conductive second connecting element on the solar cell stack and forming electrically conductive connections; and dividing the second connecting element into a second group of cell connectors.
