NOVELTY - The assembly (100A) has a flexible backsheet (103) including a top surface and a patterned adhesive layer including a set of adhesive regions arranged on the top surface. A group of conducting ribbons (105A, 105C) comprises a surface formed on the adhesive regions, where the conducting ribbons are planar and non-linear relative to a plane that is parallel to the top surface, and the patterned adhesive layer is covered by the ribbons. A patterned interlayer dielectric material is arranged between the conducting ribbon and thin crystalline silicon solar cells.    USE - Solar cell module assembly i.e. roll-to-roll type solar cell module assembly, for electrically connecting to and providing electricity to an external component or external load e.g. electrical power grid, satellite and electronic device. Can also be used for a series connected solar cell module assembly and a non-roll-to-roll type solar cell module assembly.    ADVANTAGE - The conducting ribbons are non-linear and planar or flat or non-curved in a Z-direction to reduce stiffness of the conducting ribbons, thus reducing or minimizing any stress induced into an interconnected solar cell array by the conducting ribbons. The assembly uses a non-linear format allowing a wider selection of geometries for contacting a solar cell, thus maximizing performance of the assembly and minimizing cost of the solar cell. The assembly is encapsulated by a single thermal processing step or lamination step to reduce the number of processing steps and solar cell manufacturing cost. The assembly has a planar geometry that can be easily automated to reduce assembly cost and improve throughput of production tools while introducing reduced stress in the assembly and enabling use of thin crystalline silicon solar cells. The assembly has a smaller spacing formed among multiple solar cells to increase module efficiency. The assembly can easily optimize the number and location of contact points formed on the solar cell as the geometry is only limited by a patterning process, thus easily optimizing cell and interconnect geometry of the assembly. The assembly has an interconnection between an active region and a current carrying region formed on the solar cells in a better manner.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a method for forming a solar cell device assembly.
