Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a low-cost (C0St) and highly reliable photoelectric conversion device, and more particularly to a method for using a good conductor portion of a substrate for an electrode Photoelectric conversion device. [Prior Art] At present, research on solar cells is widely prevalent. A solar cell module constituting a solar cell includes a solar cell sub-module in which a plurality of photovoltaic elements having a laminated structure are connected in series on a substrate. The photoelectric conversion element of the laminated structure is a back surface. The electrode (lower electrode) and the transparent electrode (upper electrode) sandwich a photoelectric conversion layer of a semiconductor that generates a current due to light absorption. For example, a solar cell sub-module as shown below has been proposed. As shown in FIG. 10, in the solar cell module, a glass substrate 1〇4 is disposed on the back surface of the solar cell sub-module 102 on the opposite side of the glass substrate 104 of the solar cell sub-module 102. A cover glass 108 is attached by an Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) resin layer (ethylene vinyl acetate resin layer) 1〇6 which functions as a sealing adhesive layer. Further, a back sheet 110 is attached to the back side of the glass substrate 1〇4 by the EVA resin layer 106. Further, on the back cover sheet 110, a power box 112 for connecting internal wiring drawn from the solar battery sub-module 102 is attached. A cable 114 is disposed on the power box 112, whereby the solar battery module 201119064 100 can be connected to the outside. Further, in a state where the cover glass 108 and the back cover sheet 110 are attached to the solar cell sub-module 102 and the glass substrate 1 4, the cover glass 108 and the back cover sheet 110 are fixed to a frame 118 via a seal material 116. Further, in the solar battery module 1A, there is also a solar battery module in which the glass substrate 104 is not provided and a protective layer is provided instead of the cover glass 108. For example, the solar battery module 100 is manufactured in the manner shown in Figs. 11(a) to 11(d). First, as shown in FIG. 11(a), a solar cell sub-module 102 in which a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements having a laminated structure are connected in series on a surface of a substrate is prepared, and the photoelectric conversion element of the laminated structure is a back electrode. A photoelectric conversion layer of a semiconductor that generates a current due to light absorption is sandwiched between the transparent electrodes. Next, as shown in Fig. 11 (b), for example, wirings 120 using copper foil are provided at the terminals of the respective electrodes at both end portions of the solar cell sub-module 1〇2. Next, a wiring 122 is provided which is folded back from the wirings 120 at both ends to the back surface 102b of the solar battery sub-module 1A2 and extends to the substantially central portion of the solar battery sub-module 102. This wiring 122 is composed of, for example, a ribbon. Next, as shown in FIG. 11(c), the EVA resin layer 1〇6 and the cover layer 124 are disposed on the surface 1〇2a side of the solar cell sub-module 1 ,2, and the EVA resin layer 106 and the back cover sheet 11 are placed. It is disposed on the side of the back surface 102b of the solar cell sub-module 1〇2. At this time, the wiring 122 protrudes from the hole (not shown) of the EVA tree 201119064 grease layer 106 and the back cover sheet 110 provided on the back side. In this state, the above members are integrated by a vacuum lamination method. Then, trimming processing is performed, and then the wiring 122 protruding from the back cover sheet 110 is folded back, and the wiring 122 is connected to the power box Π2 as shown in (1), and then an adhesive or the like is used. In addition to the solar cell sub-module, various solar cell sub-modules have been proposed in addition to the above-described solar cell sub-module (see Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2). In the solar cell module, a surface protective member containing Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene 'ETFE and an adhesive resin containing EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) are superposed, and the solar cell is placed thereon. a power transmission terminal is mounted on the solar cell, and the power transmission terminal is connected to the wire by soldering. The wire is provided with an adhesive resin containing EVA and a slit-processed back surface protection member. The wire is drawn out to the non-light-receiving surface side of the back surface protection member via the side surface of the back surface protection member through the notch portion of the back surface protection member. The lead wire of the non-light-receiving surface of the protective member is wired so as to be introduced into a terminal box disposed on the non-light-receiving surface of the back surface protective member, and wired so as to be capable of externally transmitting and discharging. The terminal box is also disposed on the back side of the solar cell module. Further, in the solar cell module disclosed in Patent Document 2, the internal wires are connected by splicing at the connection portion of the back reinforcing plate. The wire is connected to the wire to guide the power generated by the solar cell to the terminal portion of the 201119064 one-to-one terminal, and the cable is used to transmit the power to the outside of the solar cell module. The cable is provided by the back reinforcing plate. The surface is formed by a resin having a cylindrical shape. The resin is used as a terminal portion in the Tai (4) pool model, which is dedicated to the second. It is also disposed on the back side of the solar cell module. [Prior Art Document] [Patent Document] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent No. 3972245 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2〇〇6_2丨〇446 As described above, the electrode transfer of the previous solar cell module 1〇〇 is as shown in FIGS. 11(b) and 11(4), and the metal strip or the like is connected to the terminal portions at both ends of the solar cell sub-module 102 by soldering or the like. It is connected back to the power receiving box 112 via an insulating layer such as the hidden layer 1〇6 and the back cover sheet 11G. Therefore, it is necessary to use the metal strip of the wiring 122 from the terminal portion of the both ends up to the power box 112. The material 'cost increases, and the metal strip will be one of the factors due to invasive moisture, etc. (4) to _. This is not the case. J is not further r, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 (d), when the cover sheet is When 110 or the like is used to cover the above-mentioned wiring 122, it is necessary to cover the entire fabric of the back side of the solar cell, and the cost of the rear cover u module 100 is increased. Battery: As shown in Fig. 11 (1), since the wiring 122 of the solar battery sub-module 102 is folded back on the side of the back surface 1 of the back surface, it is a factor that increases the processing cost. 201119064 According to the thinning of the solar cell module, the folded portion of the wiring 122 and the portion of the electrical box 112 that is usually mounted near the central portion of the rear cover sheet 太阳1〇2 of the solar cell module 100 may result in the thickness of the module. Increases, and the thickness becomes uneven, resulting in a decrease in added value.

In the present embodiment, the second conductive member 34 is connected to the positive-electrode-side photoelectric conversion element 30 of the photoelectric conversion element 30 connected in series via metal. Therefore, the second conductive member 34 is connected to the highest potential electric conversion element among all the photoelectric conversion elements 30 in the optical conversion device 31. Thereby, the potential transmitted from the second conductive member 34 is the most potential. Also in the present embodiment, the metal substrate 12 such as the aluminum layer 16 and the non-mineral steel sheet 14 are used as conductors. The metal substrate 12 is a clad substrate of the non-mineral steel plate 14 and the inlaid layers 16, 17. However, since the electrical conductivity of the stainless steel plate 14 and the aluminum layers 16, 17 are sufficiently high, the solar cell sub-module 1 〇 ^ The generated current is not consumed by the metal substrate 12. As described above, in the present embodiment, since the power generated by the solar cell sub-module 1 传输 can be transmitted from the adjacent i-th conductive member 32 and the second conductive member 34, it is not necessary to make the wiring as before. The terminals provided at both ends of the solar cell sub-module are folded back and pulled to the center, and the wiring length can be shortened. Therefore, the wiring structure can be simplified. Thereby, the material cost for wiring can be suppressed. Further, since the time required for forming the wiring is also saved, the cost of the processing fee and the solar cell module installation work cost can be reduced. Further, according to the present embodiment, since the wiring structure can be simplified, the quality and the sin of the solar battery module including the solar battery sub-module can be improved. Moreover, since the adjacent first conductive member 32 201119064 and the second conductive member 34 can be rotated, the mounting position of the solar battery module can be placed around the corner instead of the previous one. Located in the center of the battery module. Therefore, it is excellent in aesthetics and can realize high added value of the solar cell core group. In this way, since the mounting position of the electrical box can be made at the periphery of the corner portion, the thickness of the solar cell module can be reduced by the thinning or uniformity of the thickness, and the thickness can be made thinner or uniformized by thickness. To improve workability and achieve high reliability. The solar cell sub-view 1G of the present embodiment shown in Fig. 1 can be formed into a solar cell module as follows, for example.

The water vapor barrier layer protects the solar cell sub-module from moisture. The water vapor barrier layer can be formed on a transparent film for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). A water vapor barrier layer containing an inorganic layer such as Si〇2 or SiN may be used, or a water vapor barrier layer composed of an inorganic layer such as Si〇2 or SiN may be sandwiched between a transparent film such as PET or PEN. In addition, the water vapor barrier layer is not particularly limited as long as the water vapor transmission rate, the oxygen permeability, and the like satisfy a predetermined performance. The surface protective layer protects the solar cell sub-module 10 from dirt and the like, and suppresses a decrease in the amount of incident light incident on the solar cell sub-module 10 due to dirt or the like. For example, a fluorine-based resin film can be used as the surface protective layer. For example, ETFE (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene) can be used as the fluorine-based resin. The thickness of the surface protective layer is, for example, 20 μΙη to 2〇〇μιη. The sealing adhesive layer provided on the back side of the solar cell sub-module 10 has the same configuration as the sealing adhesive layer provided on the front surface side, and therefore, a detailed description thereof will be given. The back cover sheet protects the solar cell sub-module 10 from the back side. Regarding the back cover sheet 22', a back cover sheet having a structure in which a resin film of a pet or a cistern is embossed is used. Further, the configuration of the back cover sheet is not particularly limited.

For example, the stainless steel plate 14 can be appropriately selected according to the insulating layer and the photoelectric conversion element and the material characteristics, and the stress calculation result can be appropriately selected.) In order to control the thermal expansion coefficient of the entire photoelectric conversion element, the stainless steel plate i 4 can be, for example, Worthfield Iron (austenite) is stainless steel (thermal expansion system ΐΑ6ΐΑ:), carbon steel and ferrite iron (ferrite (10χ10·61 广C). Also for metal substrate 12, in addition to stainless steel plate 14 can be used as the core material In addition, for example, steel containing mild steel, 42 invar alloy, k〇var alloy (5xl〇-6i^c), or 36 nickel-iron alloy (<lxl〇- The plate material of the 61/t:) is used as a core material. In the manufacturing process of the photoelectric conversion element, the thickness of the stainless steel plate 14 can be arbitrarily set according to the handling property (strength and flexibility) at the time of operation. However, the thickness of the stainless steel plate η is preferably 1 μm η 〜1 mm. Since the elastic limit stress which does not undergo plastic deformation is important, the rigidity of the stainless steel plate 14 is defined by a yield stress or a 0.2% proof value. . The 〇2% endurance value of the stainless steel plate 14 and its temperature dependence are described in the "Steel Steel Material Handbook" of Maruzen Co., Ltd., prepared by the Japan Institute of Metals and the Japan Iron and Steel Association, or the "Stainless Steel Handbook" published by the Stainless Steel Association.

In the manufacturing process of the photoelectric conversion element (photoelectric conversion device) in the photoelectric conversion I, the temperature reaches 50 (the high temperature of TC or higher, but the endurance of the steel at 50 CTC is generally about 70% for the 2011 21,064,600. On the other hand, the aluminum is The endurance at room temperature also depends on the degree of machining and thermal refining, which is 300 MPa or more, but drops below 1/10 at 350 ° C. Therefore, the elastic limit of the metal substrate 12 at high temperatures In terms of stress and thermal expansion, the high temperature characteristics of the stainless steel plate 14 are the dominant factor.

The back surface electrode 40 is formed by laminating an Ag layer 40a and a ZnO layer 40b. The transparent electrode 26 is made of, for example, ITO. The photoelectric conversion layer 42 is, for example, laminated with two photoelectric conversion groups 44a and 44b having different light absorption characteristics. The first photoelectric conversion group 44a is disposed closer to the metal substrate 12 than the second photoelectric conversion group 44b.
