Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method of manufacturing a solar cell comprising: providing a semiconductor growth substrate; depositing on said growth substrate a sequence of layers of semiconductor material forming a solar cell; applying a metal contact layer over said sequence of layers; and affixing the surface of a permanent supporting substrate composed of a carbon fiber reinforced polymer utilizing a conductive polyimide binding resin directly over said metal contact layer and permanently bonding it thereto by a thermocompressive technique.
