Abstract
Hybrid solar cell plates with integrated bypass diodes and modules thereof are described. In an embodiment, a hybrid solar cell plate includes a step surface including a floor and a step edge extending from the floor and across a thickness of a top subcell. A bypass diode is over the floor and laterally adjacent to the step edge.
