  • Publication number: 20220203359
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a near-field acoustic platform capable of synthesizing high resolution, arbitrarily shaped energy potential wells. A thin and viscoelastic membrane is utilized to modulate acoustic wavefront on a deep, sub-wavelength scale by suppressing the structural vibration selectively on the platform. This new acoustic wavefront modulation mechanism is powerful for manufacturing complex biologic products.

  • Publication number: 20140332057
    Abstract: A solar module is disclosed. The solar module includes a back sheet, a transparent substrate, a plurality of solar cells disposed between the back sheet and the transparent substrate, and an encapsulant for fastening the solar cells therebetween. The back sheet includes a light-receiving surface facing the solar cells, and a back surface opposite to the light-receiving surface. The reflectivity of the light-receiving surface is greater than 90%, and the reflectivity of the back surface is less than 10%. Therefore, the back sheet can have high reflectivity and high thermal radiation rate.

  • Publication number: 20140048306
    Abstract: An apparatus for patterning a ribbon includes a holding device, a heating device, and an embossing device. The holding device is utilized for positioning the ribbon on a surface of a solar cell. The first solder layer contacts the solar cell. The heating device is utilized for melting the ribbon for string tabbing on the solar cell. The embossing device is utilized for contacting the melted ribbon to form a pattern on the ribbon. A surface energy between the ribbon and the solar cell is greater than a surface energy between the ribbon and the embossing device.

  • Publication number: 20140007918
    Abstract: A photovoltaic device provided in the present disclosure includes a superstrate, a lower substrate, a plurality of photovoltaic cells and a package structure. The superstrate is light-transmissive, and arranged in parallel with the substrate. The photovoltaic cells are disposed side-by-side at intervals with each other between the superstrate and the substrate, and a gap zone is defined by two facing lateral surfaces of every two of the neighboring photovoltaic cells. The package structure is sandwiched between the superstrate and the substrate, and encapsulates the photovoltaic cells between the superstrate and the substrate in which a reflection portion is provided in the package structure, and located in the gap zone for reflecting lights from the superstrate back to the photovoltaic cells.
