Setfos References

“I have used the Setfos to aid OLED optical design for over three years. Overall, the experience is good since it is easy to use and in good agreement with experimental results.”

“In our Energy Harvesting Research Group, we have started using both PAIOS and SETFOS for the characterization of perovskite solar cells very recently. We find both tools very helpful in understanding the device physics of perovskite solar cells and different kinds of charge carrier losses through recombination. The multitude of characterization facilities such as light intensity-dependent J-V, Capacitance-Voltage measurement, transient photovoltaic and transient photocurrent, impedance measurement and charge transport characterization such as SCLC and CELIV all integrated into one set-up is so versatile to give an overview of different loss mechanisms and strength of one device structure over the other. Our research is particularly focussing on indoor photovoltaic development where the carrier management is stringent due to the low intensity and low carrier concentration. We have found PAIOS an excellent supportive tool to enhance our research.”

“Setfos is a very powerful simulation tool developed by Fluxim predominantly in the field of OLED and OPV researches. We are heavily dependent on this simulation tool regarding our research activities in OLED and OPV as evident in our publications. Setfos not only helps us in optimizing the device structures prior to device fabrication experimentally but also assists in analyzing the device physics through the simulation on the contribution of the various optical modes in the device as well as estimating the important parameters such as color co-ordinates, angular dependence, reflection and transmission co-efficient etc. Undoubtedly, Setfos takes an important role in the progress OLED and OPV researches.”

“The software Setfos is an outstanding program for assisting in the development of OLED displays. It provides the predictive capabilities, and physical insight into the optical performance that is needed to optimise your design. It's a fast and powerful package that a user will immediately benefit from. “

“The latest version of SETFOS is really nice with all the new features, especially the addition of IMVS, so thanks for that”

“We have extensively used both SETOS and LAOSS in our recent endeavor to model large-area OPV and OLED devices. The intuitive workflow of both software packages allows us to quickly try out new ideas before realising them experimentally.“

“ I highly recommend SETFOS, which I mostly use for simulating and understanding both time (TPV, TPC) and frequency domain (IMVS, IMPS and IS) measurements on perovskite solar cells. The user interface is easy to use and manipulate in combination with the scripting and sweep features, allowing to set up and simulate complex experiments easily. The engineers and scientists at Fluxim also provide excellent support and have been very helpful with any questions and clarifications asked of them.”

“Our team purchased the optical and electrical modules of Setfos. The operation interface of the software is intuitive, friendly, and easy to operate. The software itself contains rich information within a large material database. In the OLED device simulation process, we can simulate the emission spectrum of OLED, and simultaneously the recombination zone of charge transfer and drift spread. It can also help us to modify the design of device structure and can effectively analyze and improve the OLED device efficiency. The results calculated by Setfos could be served as a good reference point for our scientific research. We would highly recommend you consider Setfos as the option. “

“Paios and Setfos have been an asset to our research capability in CSIRO Energy and a key tool in our research and assessment of next generation thin-film photovoltaics, in particular, organic and perovskite solar cells. One of the key points of differentiation – and a clear attraction – has been the flexibility of the system and the ease in which user-defined experiments can be created. Our Team has appreciated the interaction with Fluxim and realised this has been much more than a transactional experience – we’ve formed a real partnership between developers and researchers.”

“The setfos software is a fundamental optical simulation tool for the development of highly efficient OLED structures. New features of this software like including several different emission zones are of major importance for developing efficient white light OLED structures containing more than one emitting material. The flexibility, speed, and reliability of this software combined with its huge variety of simulation tools concerning various physical key quantities like angular dependence, color coordinates, or reflection spectra allow further improvement and basic insight of OLEDs.”

“As an OLED researcher, I am very thankful for the Fluxim tools we have in our Group at ZHAW. Thanks to Paios and Phelos I can characterize my OLEDs in various regimes, such as transient, frequency, or steady-state and angle-dependent, and this all by just a few clicks. Thanks to the simulation software Setfos I can set up an electro-optical device model to reproduce the experimental data, which helps me to understand better the physics inside the OLED. Knowing the emission zone or the charge carrier distribution of an OLED can give you hints on efficiency or lifetime improvements.”

“As an advanced optical simulation software, Setfos provides great opportunities for researching optical features both in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and solar cells. The operation of Setfos is quite clear and easy. Moreover, it gives us useful physical insights of light manipulation when we design our optoelectronic devices. Our experimental data and theoretical analysis have been well demonstrated via simply modelling and computing with Setfos. It is truly a recommendable tool for studying LEDs and solar cells.”

“Setfos is a great product for researchers who want to simulate the performance of organic solar cells without having to design and build custom simulation software. By licensing Setfos, we were able to quickly answer many research questions and publish results in a matter of months.”

“Setfos is an efficient design and simulation tool for Organic LEDs and Solar Cells. Our post graduate and PhD scholars are using it and found it useful for their research work in related areas. I have no hesitation in recommending it to faculty & students for their research work.”

“At the Holst Centre, in the OLED Lighting program, the Setfos modeling tool has proven its worth by enabling accurate predictions of light emission from OLEDs on glass, plastic and metal substrates. I have experienced firsthand that this sophisticated and user-friendly software package can be used to interpret measurements and extract the relevant parameters efficiently. Such information is essential in order to improve light emission from novel OLED device designs. Fluxim also provides excellent customer support by hosting annual workshops, providing assistance whenever requested and by inquiring what features are considered valuable and essential.”

“I have used Setfos extensively to investigate the emission zone in polymer light-emitting diodes and electrochemical cells. The speed, reliability, and flexibility of this software make it ideal for a wide range of applications, particularly in the optimization of device structures or in the fundamental research of device physics.”

I'm using Setfos from more than 8 years now. It's really an essential tool we're using each days. We are using it to :

- design OLED stacks, taking into account emitter intrinsic spectra, n&k transport and blocking layers

- each time we need to adjust OLED optical cavity

The software is really user friendly. We are not using the electrical addon but maybe it could be interesting too.

Setfos is a very convenient tool to be used to predict the optical and electrical outcome from OLED and OPV devices. It also shows a physical insight of the charge transport properties in organic electronic system. The user interface is friendly, and it is an ideal tool for optimization of organic device structures.
