Organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and organic solar cells (OSC) based on polymeric materials are considered to exhibit a great potential for the development of novel solar power and energy-efficient display and light technologies.
cynora focuses on the research of novel semiconducting polymers, which, due to their intrinsic photophysical properties, are supposed to be used as white polymer light-emitting diodes (WPLEDs).
In the future the challenge will be, besides further efficiency improvements, the cost-effective processability and operational stability of OLED devices.
cynora technologies provide the synthesis of optoelectronic materials on a multi-gram scale.
These photoactive polymers are commercially available for thin film testing purposes and the development of printing technologies.
With its state-of-the-art laboratories in the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, cynora is situated right in the centre of one of the leading Technology areas in Europe.
The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) represents the cooperation between the University Karlsruhe and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe.
October 2011: To celebrate our recent award of the "Picture of the Month" (by the local newspaper BNN) and to share our beautiful pictures with you, we'll start cynora's own monthly gallery. Starting this october, we'll present you some impression right from the vault.
This month we show you some of our OLED-emitting materials, spreading their colorful light under UV-irradiation:
