Abstract
The photovoltaic cells (1a, 1b) of the assembly are disposed side by side between a front (10) and rear (11) glass substrates and are connected in series by means of front (12) and (13) rear connecting conductors and of interconnection elements (14). The connecting conductors can be formed on the internal face of each glass substrate facing the location of each of the cells or obtained by laser cutting, through the glass substrates, of conducting strips tightened beforehand between the cells and the glass substrates. The electrical interconnection elements (14) are disposed between two adjacent cells (1) to connect the opposite connecting conductors associated to two adjacent cells. A sealing joint (16), made of inorganic material, arranged between the two glass substrates (10, 11), defines a sealed internal volume which contains all the cells (1). Sealing is performed between 380.degree. C. and 480.degree. C. for a period of less than 30 minutes.
