NOVELTY - The photovoltaic article comprises a photovoltaic cell (11) having a photo electrically active region, which is located between a topside electrode and a backside electrode, a first interconnect element in contact with a front side electrode at a front surface of the cell, where the first interconnect element is adhered to the topside electrode of the cell, and a second interconnect element adhered to the backside electrode, where the first interconnect element is further adhered to the front side electrode using electrically conductive adhesives.    USE - Used as a photovoltaic article.    ADVANTAGE - The photovoltaic article exhibits long life span, good interconnect performance, and increased stability and thermal and electrical resistances.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The photovoltaic article comprises a photovoltaic cell (11) having a photo electrically active region, which is located between a topside electrode and a backside electrode, a first interconnect element in contact with a front side electrode at a front surface of the cell, where the first interconnect element is adhered to the topside electrode of the cell, and a second interconnect element adhered to the backside electrode, where the first interconnect element is further adhered to the front side electrode using electrically conductive adhesives having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of less than 70 degrees C and the second interconnect element is adhered to the backside electrode using a backside electrically conductive adhesive that has a glass transition temperature of 85 degrees C and comprises a metal chelation compound characterized by the presence of a heterocyclic component comprising oxygen (O), nitrogen (N) or sulfur (S) in a ring configuration and a additional heteroatom comprising O, N or S. The photovoltaic article further comprises additional photovoltaic cells each adjacent to an other first photovoltaic cell, a backside support, a flexible, glass front side transparent barrier, electrical connections to enable transfer of electricity generated in the photovoltaic cell to other electrical devices, an encapsulant material positioned between the backside support and the backside electrode, and an encapsulant material positioned between the topside electrode and the front side transparent barrier. Each of the additional photovoltaic cells has a photo electrically active region, which is located between a topside electrode and a backside electrode. Each of the additional photovoltaic cells connecting each adjacent cell is interconnect element in contact with the topside electrode of a cell and the backside electrode of the adjacent cell to form a series of interconnected cells. A topside electrically conductive adhesive adheres the interconnect elements to the front surface of the cell, and has a glass transition temperature of less than 70 degrees C. A backside electrically conductive adhesive adheres the interconnect elements to the back electrode of the cell. A chalcogen-containing species is found on the backside electrode. The electrically conductive adhesives are compositions comprising a thermosetting polymer and conductive particles.
