ABOUT US

FLUXiM delivers advanced Swiss-engineered software and hardware tools specifically designed for the advancement of cutting-edge OLEDs, display technologies, batteries, and solar cells, expertly addressing the research and development requirements of both academic institutions and industrial sectors.

Our Goals

"Our goal is to empower researchers by providing innovative tools and solutions, enabling the development and realization of next-generation PV, battery, and display technologies that will shape the future and improve the world around us."

Our History

The name FLUXiM has its roots in the concept of flux simulation, reflecting the company's commitment to pioneering advancements in this field. Our journey began at the Institute of Computational Physics at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, where our team cultivated expertise in developing cutting-edge simulation technologies. In 2006, Prof. Dr. Beat Ruhstaller took the initiative to harness this knowledge and experience, establishing FLUXiM as a spin-off company. Since then, we have been dedicated to fostering innovation and delivering world-class software and hardware tools help boost R&D.

Our Products

Setfos and Laoss, our software solutions, are expertly designed to simulate the core functions of LEDs and solar cells (including organic, perovskite, and quantum-dot variants) at both micro and macro scales. Capable of simulating light-outcoupling from OLEDs, light-absorption in thin-film solar cells, and charge generation, transport, and recombination in semiconductor devices, these software tools significantly enhance the R&D process for OLEDs, displays, lighting panels, solar cells, and photovoltaic arrays.

Our hardware lineup, including Paios, Phelos, Litos, and Litos Lite, consists of integrated measurement platforms with embedded analysis software to enable efficient electrical and optical device characterization, parameter extraction, and model validation.

Our R&D Services

In addition to our core products, we offer supplementary services such as professional consulting, additional training sessions, custom software development, and specific device characterization to cater to the diverse needs of our clients. We encourage you to explore our references and client testimonials to gain further insight into the scope and quality of our activities.

Meet the Fluxim Teams

It takes a lot of talented people to develop advanced research tools and we are thankful that over the last 16 years, we have managed to attract the best and brightest minds across multiple disciplines. At the heart of Fluxim is our R&D team whose research drives the technological advancements of every tool. Our Software and Hardware teams take this work and develop it into the products that researchers (like us) want to use. And of course, you wouldn’t know about us if it wasn’t for our sales, marketing, and admin teams.

Academic Research Projects

If you scroll down the page you will happen upon our current group of Ph.D students. They represent another core value here at Fluxim. Our continued commitment to academic excellence, in particular through collaborative research projects. Throughout our history, we have collaborated on many R&D projects thanks to the funding afforded by European and Swiss research grants. Through these collaborations, researchers benefit from better tools to assist their research and we contribute to the development of a new generation of researchers, many of whom stay on as employees of Fluxim after defending their Ph.D.

What’s it like working at Fluxim?

At Fluxim, we are passionate about creating cutting-edge research tools that enable researchers to develop the next generation of semiconducting devices.

We value our employees and strive to provide a supportive and stimulating work environment. We are not just employees, we are parents, students, husbands, and wives. Fluxim offers flexible working hours and the ability to work from home when needed. We offer opportunities for personal and professional growth, including training and development programs, access to cutting-edge technology, and a collaborative work culture that encourages exploration and experimentation. We are also very fond of an Apéro or two and employees are encouraged to organize team events such as ski days, hiking, and cycle tours.

We currently have two offices within Katarina Sulzer Platz with a communal lunch and coffee area, two terraces for when the weather is favorable, and free tea and coffee.

When we have positions available we are looking for individuals who are passionate about their work, driven to excel, and eager to contribute. If you share our values and are looking for an exciting and challenging opportunity to shape the future of Fluxim, we would love to hear from you.
