Abstract:
A solar cell includes a semiconductor substrate including a short side that extends in a first direction and a first long side that extends in a second direction that is different than the first direction, and a plurality of electrodes disposed on at least one surface of the semiconductor substrate in which each electrode includes a junction that comprises a conductive material and that provides an electrical and physical connection to the semiconductor substrate. The plurality of electrodes are arranged physically apart from each other in the second direction.

Claim (Index 19):
A method for manufacturing a solar cell module that includes first and second solar cells, each solar cell comprising a short side that extends in a first direction, a long side that extends in a second direction that is different than the first direction, the method comprising:\n applying a conductive adhesive to the second solar cell, the second solar cell including a plurality of electrodes that include a junction at an end of each electrode and that are arranged in parallel to the second direction; positioning the first solar cell over the second solar cell at an overlap region in which the conductive adhesive is applied; and curing the conductive adhesive to physically and electrically connect the first solar cell to the second solar cell, wherein the junction is disposed in the overlap region based on the first solar cell overlapping the second solar cell, and wherein the conductive adhesive is configured to connect the junction in the overlap region to a neighboring electrode that is spaced apart from the junction in the second direction.
