An electrolytic copper foil securing high strength characteristics such as tensile strength is disclosed. The electrolytic copper foil can secure high strength characteristics by maintaining an area ratio of fine grains and grain boundaries in the electrolytic copper foil even after high-temperature heat treatment. An electrode for a secondary battery including the electrolytic copper foil, and a secondary battery including the electrode are also disclosed.

An electrolytic copper foil having improved elongation and electrical conductivity is disclosed. The improved elongation and electrical conductivity are due to an increase in shape deformation of grains selective to a specific direction and an increase in an average grain size after heat treatment. An electrode for a secondary battery including the electrolytic copper foil, and a secondary battery including the electrode are disclosed.

A metallic article for a photovoltaic cell is disclosed. The metallic article includes a first region having a plurality of electroformed elements that are configured to serve as an electrical conduit for a light-incident surface of the photovoltaic cell. A cell-to-cell interconnect is integral with the first region. The cell-to-cell interconnect is configured to extend beyond the light-incident surface and to directly couple the metallic article to a neighboring photovoltaic cell. The cell-to-cell interconnect includes a plurality of electroformed, curved appendages. Each appendage has a first end coupled to an edge of the first region and a second end opposite the first end and away from the edge. The appendages are spaced apart from each other. The metallic article is a unitary, free-standing piece.
