20150027513 | SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE FOR A PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER MODULE - A semiconductor substrate and a photovoltaic power module incorporating the semiconductor substrate. The substrate includes one or more bypass diodes formed integrally in the semiconductor substrate, each bypass diode corresponding to a respective one or more photovoltaic cells, and metallised zones being electrically and thermally coupled to the bypass diodes. The substrate enables photovoltaic cells to be placed close together, and has low thermal resistance. Methods of manufacturing the substrate and module are provided. | 01-29-2015 |
20140352759 | REFLECTOR FOR A PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER MODULE - A photovoltaic power module including a reflector, and methods for manufacturing the reflector. The photovoltaic power module includes a plurality of photovoltaic cells arranged in an array, including a photon source facing surface having a plurality of active areas that convert photons to electrical energy and a plurality of inactive areas that do not convert photons to electrical energy. The reflector covers at least one inactive area of a photon source facing surface, for reflecting photons that would otherwise have fallen on the inactive area onto an active area. The output of the photovoltaic power module may therefore be increased. | 12-04-2014 |
20110100427 | BYPASS DIODE FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS - A photovoltaic power module, comprising a substrate provided with a circuit, one or more photovoltaic cells mounted to the substrate and electrically connected to the circuit, and one or more bypass diodes, each corresponding to a respective one or more of the cells, wherein each of the diodes is located between the substrate and the cells and between conducting portions of the circuit. | 05-05-2011 |
