CONDENSING LENS FOR HIGH CONCENTRATION PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A manufacturing method of a condensing lens assembly for a high concentration photovoltaic (HCPV) module, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a substrate;
b) covering the substrate with a buffer layer;
c) integrating the substrate and the buffer layer by heating to a first temperature; and
d) molding and solidifying a lens on the buffer layer at a second temperature.

Abstract
The present invention discloses a manufacturing method of a condensing lens for a high concentration photovoltaic (HCPV) module. A buffer layer made of silicone is added between a glass and the condensing lens for adhering the glass to the condensing lens. Because the buffer layer can be formed on the glass before adhering to the condensing lens, a higher temperature for increasing adhesion between the glass and the buffer layer can be applied. It also allows the follow-up processes to have sufficient treatment time, thereby increasing the flexibility of processing schedule.
