  • PARTITION FOR A COMMERCIAL OR TRANSPORT VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20240042749
    Abstract: A method for producing a partition for the interior of a commercial or transport vehicle for separating a passenger compartment from a cargo compartment. The partition is designed as a multilayer composite component made of a renewable raw material, in particular a wood-based material, which is produced by a forming process in a forming die.

  • Crystalline solar cell comprising a transparent, conductive layer between the front-side contacts and method for producing such a solar cell
    Patent number: 11444211
    Abstract: A monofacial or bifacial crystalline solar cell, on the front face of which over the entire area a first surface passivation layer is arranged directly on the semiconductor interface and above this a first optically opaque, electrically conductive material is arranged in first lateral regions as a front face contact, and a first optically transparent, electrically conductive material is arranged exclusively in second lateral regions. The first optically transparent, electrically conductive material is electrically conductively connected to the front face contact and to a first region of the semiconductor material of the solar cell. The method provides for application of the first optically transparent, electrically conductive material only after the first optically opaque, electrically conductive material has been applied, in such a way that firing of the front face contact is avoided.
    Type: Grant
