Success Story: QYB x SCIPRIOS

Quantum Yield Berlin is collaborating with SCIPRIOS to integrate the LuQY Pro’s advanced luminescence analysis in SCIPRIOS’ robotic semiconductor fabrication platforms. This combination allows fully automated thin-film fabrication and analysis which massively accelerates the development of advanced optoelectronic devices.
As a result, researchers and industry partners can optimize solar cells and LEDs faster and more reliably, reducing development cycles and opening new opportunities in printed electronics and photovoltaics. The collaboration was fostered by the Solar Tap technology acceleration platform and is covered in more detail in a recent success story.
