ABSTRACT:
A thin-film solar cell device in which multiple series-connected cell elements are formed in units which can then be readily joined together in either a series or parallel connection. At least two terminal electrodes are provided on the opposite side of the insulating substrate of each unit, connected to the respective end electrodes of the elements at the extreme ends on the obverse surface of the substrate. This may be done either by bending the flexible substrate around at opposite ends at angles of 180.degree., or by forming through-holes in the substrate at opposite ends and filling the through-holes with a conductive material. Units can then be joined merely by overlapping their edge portions and connecting them with a conductive adhesive.
