Functional coatings for power conversion and storage

AIT develops new technologies, manufacturing processes and characterization methods for thin- film solar cells and functional coatings in energy related applications.  We provide solutions for power-to-liquids, transparent heaters, optoelectronics and solar cells.  In this way, we secure decisive competitive advantages for component manufacturers and equipment manufacturers in this promising markets. ​

Solar energy conversion​

AIT provides innovative coatings and efficient manufacturing processes for the next generation of photovoltaic and energy efficient devices. ​

Other applications​

Transparent electrodes: Beyond ITO: AIT developed sputtered transparent electrodes on flexible substrates that out-perform the standard ITO. Based on combinations of ultra-thin metals and dielectrics, these electrodes show ultra-high performance on PET substrate: 85 % average visible transparency (including the substrate) and sheet resistance 5 Ω/sq  . Potential applications are transparent heaters, optoelectronics, functional surfaces on foils and flexible devices.​
