Abstract
A solar cell module is provided with: a plurality of solar cells, each of which comprises a first electrode and a second electrode that are formed on a photoelectric conversion unit; and a wiring material that is fitted on the first electrode and the second electrode using an adhesive and connects the solar cells with each other. The adhesive is provided so as to extend beyond a region (R) directly below the wiring material and to adhere to a lateral surface of the wiring material. The solar cell module has a pore in the region (R) directly below the wiring material.
Claims7
A solar cell module, comprising:
- a plurality of solar cells each including a photoelectric conversion unit and an electrode formed on the photoelectric conversion unit;
- and
- a wiring member mounted on the electrode by using an adhesive for connecting between the solar cells,
- the adhesive being provided to extend beyond a region immediately below the wiring member and to adhere to a side surface of the wiring member, and
- the region immediately below the wiring member including a void.
A method of manufacturing a solar cell module, comprising the step of:
- providing a plurality of solar cells each including an electrode formed on a photoelectric conversion unit and thermocompression bonding a wiring member onto the electrode of the solar cells by using an adhesive for connecting between the solar cells,
- wherein
- the above step comprises, after providing the adhesive in a region immediately below the wiring region and introducing a void, thermocompression bonding the wiring member to thereby extrude the adhesive beyond the region immediately below the wiring member and form a fillet.
