Abstract :
The electrical properties of various lead-free electrically conductive adhesives are investigated. They are intended to replace the solder, which is normally used to connect the interconnector tapes to the busbar. Compared to solder joints conductive adhesives offer the advantage of lower contact formation temperature with reasonable low contact resistances.
