Effect of Loading Rates on the Nominal Bonding Strength between Soft Substrate and Photovoltaic Silicon Wafer

Article Preview

Abstract:

Aiming at expanding and extending the application of photovoltaic energy technology into a bigger scope, a kind of soft substrate with multilayer structure is designed and fabricated to be bonded with photovoltaic silicon wafer to manufacture photovoltaic system. Pure aluminum thin film is introduced in the designed structure, which consists of mainly organic polymeric materials, to improve the thermal conducting behavior and anti-corrosion properties of the whole photovoltaic system. To study the reliability of the eventual structure with photovoltaic module of silicon wafer, various loading rates are chosen to measure the nominal bonding strength between the soft substrate and photovoltaic module.
