Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: first and second electrodes; a photoactive layer between the first and second electrodes; an electrically conductive layer electrically connected with the first electrode; a first substrate between the electrically conductive layer and the first electrode, the first substrate having an opening; a first adhesive layer between the first substrate and the electrically conductive layer, the first adhesive layer having an opening; and an electrically conductive member that is electrically connected to both the first electrode and the electrically conductive layer, the electrically conductive member being in both the opening of the first substrate and the opening of the first adhesive layer, wherein the electrically conductive layer is a continuous layer without openings and comprises an electrically conductive material distributed continuously throughout the entire electrically conductive layer, the electrically conductive member is entirely disposed between the first electrode and the electrically conductive layer, the first electrode is configured to be electrically connected to an external load via both the electrically conductive member and the electrically conductive layer, and the system is configured as a photovoltaic cell.
