Dylan Habans is an inventor associated with Grenoble, France, and the Commissariat à l’énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA). His listed patent concerns the design of photovoltaic modules and their encapsulation structures.

Latest Patents

Habans is credited with 1 patent: “Photovoltaic Module Comprising an Encapsulation Structure Based on at Least One Polymer Material and Locally Softened.” The invention describes a photovoltaic unit with cells connected in series and metal interconnectors joining adjacent cells. A polymer-based encapsulation structure covers the cells and interconnectors, while an incorporated spacer partially overlaps an interconnector. The spacer uses a material with a lower modulus of elasticity than the encapsulation material, including at temperatures as low as −40 °C.

Career Highlights

The patent reflects work on photovoltaic module construction, particularly the materials and structural features used around cell interconnections. Habans is associated with CEA, a French research institution focused on science and technology.
