  • Patent number: 8344245
    Abstract: A thin film solar cell module of see-through type having cells connected in series and disposed on an opaque substrate with holes is provided. The thin film solar cell module includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a photoelectric conversion layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The first electrode is disposed on the opaque substrate and is composed of a first comb electrode and block-like first electrodes. The second electrode is disposed above the first electrode and is composed of a second comb electrode and block-like second electrodes. A portion of the block-like first electrodes, a portion of the opaque substrate, and the holes are exposed between the second comb electrode and the block-like second electrodes. The second comb electrode and the first comb electrode are disposed symmetrically, and the block-like first electrodes and the block-like second electrodes are disposed by parallel displacement.

  • Patent number: 7982127
    Abstract: A thin film solar cell module of see-through type and method of fabricating the same is provided. The method includes forming scribe lines in two directions in a first electrode material layer disposed on an opaque substrate so as to avoid short circuit caused by a high-temperature laser scribing process and reduction of the process yield. Moreover, the thin film solar cell module of see-through type has holes through the opaque substrate so that the cell module increases the transmittance of the cells.
