Design-Make-Test-Learn (DMTL) is the cycle through which materials are designed, synthesized, tested and evolve into the next iteration. This process is typically used in early drug discovery and relies primarily on synthesis and screening workflows of hundreds of thousands of drug candidates which take from months to year or longer. When chemists / scientists are empowered by automation and digitalization of the workflows, it significantly accelerates and standardizes the discovery processes. Furthermore, autonomous labs in combination with AI and cloud computing propel innovation, evolutionary learning and high quality open, AI ready FAIR data. This is not limited to pharmaceutical research anymore and extends into energy research such as electrochemical storage and conversion technologies owing to society’s ambitious commitment to transition towards climate-neutral economy.
We, Chemspeed part of Bruker Corporation, develop and manufacture vender agnostic solutions for R&D and QC workflows automation.
For power-to-x/clean tech, we provide modularly by design end-to-end solutions from synthesis, formulation, application, curing, analysis to testing. In this talk, I will present selected snapshot use cases:
- End-to-end electrocatalysts development for green hydrogen production
- DMTL of photocatalysts
- End-to-end automated, digitalized solutions for photovoltaics
- High throughput and high-quality coin cell assembly with a throughput of 20 cells per hour
- Electrode paste/slurry formulations and screening with benchtop Rheometer, PSD and more analytical devices
- Solid phase synthesis of electrode materials and online validation with XRD, XRF
- Screening of catalysts for CO2 conversion to value added chemicals like methanol
nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
