초록

The size and distribution of residual stresses and the effect of the minimum mesh size were investigated by the a-Si thin film solar cell. Attributed to the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion of the a-Si and Ag concentrated residual stresses at the joint interface of dissimilar materials. The ${\sigma}y$ and ${\tau}xy$ didn't appear in the central part, but ${\sigma}x$ existed. However, ${\sigma}x$, ${\sigma}y$ and ${\tau}xy$ appeared in the edge part and concentrated residual stresses at the interface between a-Si and Ag. Minimum mesh size gets smaller, the concentration of ${\sigma}y$ was significantly and existence area was reduced. As a result, the failure of thin film solar cells during the cutting process can be explained by the residual stresses.
