Abstract
Methods and devices for removing entrapped bubbles or air in photovoltaic solar cells during a manufacturing process including an encapsulation process include, for example, wiggling the photovoltaic solar cells or pushing out air bubbles by applying vibrations and/or light pressures. Optional additional steps include liquid wetting or dispensing to or around the photovoltaic solar cell matrix for air releasing before the placement of the matrix into a liquid for encapsulation.
