Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the simplification of the process by unnecessitating the guide of photoelectromotive force to the back by means of leads, by a method wherein the photoelectromotive force of the titled element formed on a flexible insulation substrate is led out to the substrate back opposite to the photo receiving surface. CONSTITUTION:An amorphous Si layer 3 shown by a one-dot chain line is kept on metallic electrodes 2 formed on the flexible insulation substrate 1. Further, clear electrodes 4 shown by broken lines are formed so as to oppose the metallic electrodes 2. It is possible to lead the photoelectromotive force out of the substrate back by bending the projecting terminals 5 of the electrodes 2 and 4 together with the substrate to the substrate back opposite to the photo receiving surface.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, thin-film solar cells have been widely used as built-in power sources for electronic devices such as calculators and wristwatches, but solar cells with glass substrates have generally been used. In the case of a thin film solar cell having a glass substrate e, as shown in FIG. 6, since light was incident from the glass substrate 6 side, the photovoltaic force could be taken out from the back side of the light-receiving surface. Generally, the circuit section 9 of an electronic device is installed on the back side of the light-receiving surface, so that the circuit section and the output terminal A can be easily connected by crimping using the leaf spring 8 or the like.

However, as electronic devices become thinner, solar cells are required to be thinner and more flexible, and the substrate is now made of a thin metal plate insulated with heat-resistant resin or a heat-resistant resin film. However, as shown in Figure 7, the element light-receiving surface and the output terminal are on the same plane, so
It was not possible to extract the photovoltaic force from the back side of the light-receiving surface, and all lead wires had to be connected to guide it.
