Dr. Justin Chen, Reinhold Dauskardt Group, Stanford University
“Recently, we received a Litos Lite with 56 channels. I am so glad that the instrument integrates an LED-based sun simulator. This is far more convenient than replacing Xenon bulbs all the time. The custom-made sample holders work for our 3 different sample layouts, and with the parallel JV characterization and MPPT, we are saving a lot of time. I also appreciate the good support received by the Fluxim team.”

Dr. Kumar Sudhir, Nanomaterials Engineering Research Group, Institute for Chemical and Bioengineering, ETH Zürich
“Phelos angle-dependent photoluminescence (PL)/electroluminescence (EL) spectrometer along with Setfos package is a great combination of hardware and software to characterize the orientation of emission transition dipole moment. User-friendly interface and a broad range of parameters, such as polarization angles, position angles, driving current, and J-V parameters to investigate the PL as well as EL characteristics of light-emitting semiconductors. We have extensively used both Phelos and Setfos to understand the quantum emission characteristics of perovskites and organometallic complexes and light-extraction efficiency in PeLEDs and OLEDs. We found these tools allowed fast data acquisition, simulation, and in-depth understanding of emission characteristics of LEDs and OLEDs”

Dr Lethy Krishnan Jagadamma, Leader of the Energy Harvesting Research Group, University of St Andrews, UK
“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.”

Dr Sandheep Ravi Shankar, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH
“ 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.”

Dr. Ding, OLED simulation team, Ningbo Research Institute, China
“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. “

Dr Gregory J. Wilson, Research Group Leader, CSIRO Energy, Newcastle, Australia
“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.”

Dr. Jan Blochwitz-Nimoth CTO Novaled AG, Dresden, Germany
“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.”

Dr. Markus Regnat, ZHAW School of Engineering, Switzerland
“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.”

Prof. Dr. Jianxin Tang, Soochow University, Suzhou, China
“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.”
