Abstract: A frame profile (1) for a solar cell laminate (10) includes a laminate clamping section (2), which comprises two parallel clamping feet (2a, 2b) configured plane and mutually spaced apart for clamped mounting of the solar cell laminate (10); and a profile section (3) adjoining the laminate clamping section (2), which includes a portion formed—by sides (3a, 3b)—for the solar cell laminate (10). Therefore, the sides (3a, 3b) are formed such that the portion includes an undercut at least partially. A solar module (100) with at least one such frame profile (1) has a panel-shaped solar cell laminate (10), which is inserted between the clamping feet (2a, 2b) of the laminate clamping section (2) right up to the portion and is connected to the frame profile (1) of an at least partially framed solar module (100).

Abstract: A photovoltaic apparatus may have a solar panel with at least one bifacial solar cell. The apparatus may include a solar panel, a support structure, a mounting member, and at least one reflector. A first location of the support structure may be configured to rotatably attach to the solar panel. A first location of the mounting membermounting member may be configured to rotatably attach to a first location of the support structure. At least one reflector may be configured to attach to a second location of the mounting member. The reflector(s) may reflect light onto a first side and/or a second side of the solar panel, and the reflector(s) may be fixed relative to the solar panel; the reflector(s) and the solar panel may be configured to rotate together about an axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a solar cell module by the steps of: providing at least two bifacial solar cells; adjoining arrangement of the solar cells, wherein a gap is provided between the solar cells; providing a diffuse reflector in the gap area. The present invention also relates to such a solar cell module, wherein the diffuse reflector is disposed and configured such that it diffusely reflects the incident light and a portion of the diffusely reflected lights strikes on the solar cell through total reflection at the front boundary layer of the solar cell module.

Abstract: Photovoltaic module including a module laminate with several electrically interconnected partially or completely bifacial photovoltaic cells, which are embedded in an encapsulation material, wherein photovoltaic cells are adjacently disposed such that there is a cell gap between two respective mutually adjoining photovoltaic cells, wherein module laminate includes a front and rear-side surfaces which are opposite front-side surface; module frame, which encircles module laminate; module rear-wall disposed at distance from rear-side surface of module laminate and fixed on module frame, which covers at least one portion of rear-side surface of module laminate; wherein at least one portion of module rear-wall which is facing rear-side surface of module laminate, forms a diffuse backside reflector; wherein diffuse backside reflector is disposed such that at least one portion of light which penetrates through at least one cell gap of several cell gaps, is reflected on rear-side surface of module laminate.

Abstract: Implementations of the present invention relate to a scanning probe microscope, which includes a base frame to which a probe holder with a probe as well as a probe support are, or can be fixed. The probe and the sample mount can be moved relative to one another in order to obtain information about the surface of the sample by scanning a sample which is arranged on the sample mount. Furthermore, a reaction chamber can be attached to the base frame of the scanning probe microscope, with the sample mount arranged therein. The reaction chamber has an opening on its side facing the probe, through which the probe can enter the reaction chamber. The reaction chamber can enable treatment of the sample's surface by the specific influence of fluids within the reaction chamber when the reaction chamber is closed.
