Abstract

L'invention concerne une structure de cellules photovoltaïques interconnectées sur un même substrat, comportant un empilement de couches incluant une première couche de métal conducteur (M1), une couche conductrice transparente (TCO), et une couche active (Pile), à propriétés photovoltaïques, entre la première couche de métal (M1) et la couche transparente (TCO), ainsi qu'une deuxième couche de métal conducteur (M2), et une couche isolante (ISL) entre les première (M1) et deuxième (M2) couche de métal conducteur. La structure comporte en outre, pour une séparation en au moins deux cellules (Cel n, Cel n+1) et assurer des interconnexions entre les deux cellules, une première gravure (P1) à travers la première couche de métal (M1), la couche active (Pile) et la couche transparente (TCO), une deuxième gravure (P2) à travers la couche isolante (ISL) et une troisième gravure (P3) dans la deuxième couche métallique (M2). On réalise en outre au moins un trou (T) dans chaque cellule, à travers la couche active (Pile), la première couche de métal (M1) et la couche d'isolant (ISL), comblé par une excroissance de la deuxième couche métallique (M2) et/ou par une excroissance de la couche conductrice transparente (TCO) pour assurer un transfert de charges de la couche conductrice transparente (TCO) vers la deuxième couche de métal (M2).
