Abstract

L'invention concerne un transducteur photoélectrique comportant un module transducteur photoélectrique dans lequel une pluralité d'unités structurales sont disposées sur une face plate ou incurvée. Chaque unité structurale comprend un élément transducteur photoélectrique semi-conducteur, un système optique de réfraction biaxiale présentant une ouverture plus large que le diamètre maximum de la partie semi-conductrice de l'élément transducteur, et un système optique de réflexion biaxiale situé en regard du système optique de réfraction, l'élément transducteur se trouvant entre les deux. La distance entre le système optique de réfraction et le système optique de réflexion est plus courte que la longueur focale du système optique de réfraction. Ainsi, le transducteur photoélectrique peut être utilisé dans un capteur solaire de type non orientable, sans accroître la surface de l'élément transducteur photoélectrique semi-conducteur, à la différence des capteurs solaires du type plan.
