ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a solar array with interconnects wherein an array is formed by providing a pair of spaced flexible aluminum foil sheets which are electrically insulated from each other and wherein semiconductor spheres extend through one of the sheets and are electrically coupled to both sheets. A plurality of such arrays are formed in a strip and the individual arrays are separated by placing shims at the scribe locations and scribing thereover so that one of the sheets has an edge extending outwardly for connection to a sheet of another array. In this manner, large solar panels can be formed from a plurality of interconnected arrays in a reel-to-reel embodiment.
