Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing flexible thin film solar cells, comprising the following steps: e. applying a photoactive layer construction to a rigid substrate preferably made of glass and having the front contact layer thereof facing outward, f. applying a flexible film to the back contact layer of the layer construction facing away from the substrate, g. releasing the photoactive layer construction from the substrate by means of a laser beam, h. applying a flexible film to the front contact layer.
