As part of the ALABO project, a research team has been working on the foundations for the next generation of organic solar cell encapsulation technology for the past three years. This month the research project has reached its completion, and it delivers impressive results.   In order to interconnect solar cells directly produced on barrier films, the requirements call for a very precise and detailed, but more importantly, very “gentle” laser structuring. The biggest challenge within the compl...
