Thin-Film Module Laboratory

This 36 m² laboratory has one glovebox, one fume hood, and a device used for spray-coating synthesis. The glovebox houses a nanosecond laser system used in perovskite module production.

The lab also has a SpinBOT Automated Spin-Coating and Heating Robot System (by SCIPRIOS) positioned inside the fume hood. The robot arm has a heater, a spin coater and sample holders, and performs computer-controlled coating and heating operations.
