Abstract
The present invention includes a method for applying bus bars to a solar cell by one single solder dipping operation. The bus bars are first temporarily spot attached to the pre-metallized surface of a solar cell by means of a high temperature adhesive. The solar cell and bus bars are then solder dipped allowing the solder to flow between the bus bars and solar cell surface by capillary action, adjacent the adhesive.
