NOVELTY - An article (112a, 112b) comprises combination of two photovoltaic cells and an interconnection component, where the first cell has a downward facing bottom surface, and the interconnection component contains substrate (70a) having a sheet-like form, where the substrate has a downward facing bottom side and an upward facing top side, the first cell bottom surface overlays the substrate to define an overlapping region, where the downward facing bottom cell surface faces the upward facing side of the substrate, the substrate within the overlapping region comprises multiple polymeric layers.    USE - As an article (claimed) such as electroplated articles.    ADVANTAGE - The article allows separate production of photovoltaic structures while also offering unique means to achieve effective integrated connections.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An article (112a, 112b) comprises combination of two photovoltaic cells and an interconnection component, where the first cell has a downward facing bottom surface, and the interconnection component contains substrate (70a) having a sheet-like form, where the substrate has a downward facing bottom side and an upward facing top side, the first cell bottom surface overlays the substrate to define an overlapping region where the downward facing bottom cell surface faces the upward facing side of the substrate, the substrate within the overlapping region comprises multiple polymeric layers, where first polymeric layer comprises a polymeric adhesive and the first layer forms the upward facing top side of the substrate throughout all of the overlapping region, the second polymeric layer underlies the layer of polymeric adhesive, and the second polymeric layer is distinct from any polymeric layer underlying the second photovoltaic cell. The polymeric adhesive is a laminating adhesive, or electrically conductive; or insulator.
