Optigon is reshaping how advanced materials are discovered, optimized, and deployed. Read more on the importance of this problem and how we’re tackling it through smarter and faster materials characterization and process inspection tools below 👇 optigon.us/post/optigon-m…

Our automated characterization tool is setup in Booth 301 at #S24MRS, come check it out!

💥Webinar Alert!💥 Optigon was recently selected to join the US Manufacturing of Advanced Perovskites (US-MAP) Consortium! I'll be giving an intro to Optigon and our vision for perovskite characterization and optimization on May 9 at 12p.Register👇 nrel.zoomgov.com/webinar/regist…

With laser-based precision tools for measuring and tuning materials, #MIT spinout Optigon aims to rev up the energy transition. MIT Energy Initiative news.mit.edu/2024/optigon-s…

Our US-MAP webinar is now live through the NREL Learning Center! Please check it out to hear our vision to support the solar industry and boost #perovskite commercialization through smarter metrology/inspection tools. youtube.com/watch?v=PSf5PL…

Big news! Recently, we were awarded a $1.3M Department of Energy (DOE) fast-track #SBIR for developing "Rapid Multi-Modal Characterization Tools for PV Manufacturing". We just kicked off Phase 2, with a big effort in pilot demonstrations - reach out if you want to work together!

We'll be at the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (#PVSC) this coming week in Seattle. Come by our poster or reach out if you want to grab coffee together!

We are beyond excited to welcome our FOUR new interns this summer!🎉 We have Marlin Haavengen and Nora Utseth from Norway and Will Young and Yogitha Adapa representing engineering powerhouses Olin College of Engineering and Northeastern University. Welcome to the team everyone!🚀

Grateful to Massachusetts Clean Energy Center for selecting our team for a competitive AmplifyMass award! This $299k in funding will allow our team to develop novel types of quality control and inspection tools 🔬 capable of measuring material composition and structure 🌐 📊. masscec.com/press/masscec-…

Our Cofounder and CSO, Dane deQuilettes, has been invited to Gordon Research Conferences to lead the discussion on Defects in Perovskites along with a great lineup of speakers. He will also be on the Mentorship Panel to discuss career paths after receiving a PhD. Check out the details below!

Optigon is beginning to review applications for the Founding Engineer position recently posted (optigon.us/careers). If you plan on applying or know someone who would be a great fit, there’s still time and we want to hear from you!

We are excited to have Ethan Schwartz as a visiting researcher from University of Washington and the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds. Ethan is currently a Ph.D. candidate in MechE and specializes in large area perovskite deposition, in-situ characterization, and ML. Welcome Ethan!

Last week I got to attend my first CdTe Workshop hosted by The University of Toledo in Ohio. It was a special experience getting to spend time with so many of the scientists that laid the foundation for the success of CdTe PV, which has culminated in >25 GW deployed globally by First Solar!
