Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a metallic interconnect member for connecting a first solar cell to a second solar cell. The interconnect member includes one or more serpentine paths having substantially perpendicular loops. The interconnect member may include two connection pads for connecting to the first solar cell. A further connection pad for connecting to a bypass diode may be included. The disclosure further relates to a string of solar cells including a first and a second solar cell connected by an interconnect member.

Claim (Index 16):
A metallic interconnect member having a first side for connecting to a first solar cell, and\n a second side for connecting to a second solar cell, the first and second solar cells being spaced apart along a first axis, at least one serpentine path extending from the first side to the second side in a plane, and a step portion out of the plane wherein the serpentine path comprises a first obround section providing flexibility in a first direction in the plane, and a second obround section providing flexibility in a second direction in the plane, and perpendicular to the first direction.
