PV IV: Lunch Talk

From the physics lab to production: Organic photovoltaics as a fascinating field for industry scientists — •Karsten Walzer — Heliatek GmbH, Treidlerstraße 3, D-01139 Dresden

Using the example of Heliatek GmbH, I will discuss possible career pathways in the young field of organic semiconductor industry. Heliatek is a technology pioneer in organic photovoltaics (OPV), which has been spun-off 10 years ago from two universities: TU Dresden and University of Ulm. Today, Heliatek is an Organic Photovoltaic company, integrating the complete value chain from material synthesis and research, to the point of roll to roll production, product development and commercialization. The OPV foils with the brand name HeliaFilm are ideal for building integrated photovoltaics, the next growing market in PV. We will take a closer look into the challenges that we had to face going from lab to fab, and in parallel look at the outcomes of different examples of research, development and production. The knowledge transfer from academia to industry will be discussed, as well as the chances for cooperation between industry with academic and non-academic partners.
