Equipment development

 

Always one step ahead

With its clients, the IMWS works on developing new equipment for microstructure elucidation. In the interview, Prof. Dr. Matthias Petzold explains the advantages this provides.

 

CSP test device for detecting the PID effect

A simple, fast and flexible kind of quality control in photovoltaics - already at cell level.

 

microPREP™

Together with 3D-Micromac AG, we at the Fraunhofer IMWS have developed the microPREP™ system for fast and precise provision of material samples. The video explains graphically the function and advantages of such a system.
