Who are we?
We make transparent solar cells! Our photovoltaic cells are suitable for making low-power devices self-powered, and they work both indoor and outdoor. We are a deep tech startup company that spun off from research at Uppsala University a few years back. It is our conviction that digitalisation and mass deployment of IoT devices will depend upon multiple power sources and that our beautiful and transparent solar cells will meet the need for aesthetically designed solutions. We operate on a global market knowing that success starts with the spirit of the team. And teams are made up of individuals, all thriving under their special conditions, whether it's opportunities for travel, learning, workout or family life. We are a diverse team based in Uppsala, driven by our passion for making sustainable and beautiful power solutions.
What do we expect you to do?
- Design scalable and deployable process for Peafowl cells high-throughput manufacturing
- Deposition of ultra-thin layers from liquid formulations (commercial and own formulations) onto hard and flexible substrates using high-throughput manufacturing methods (e.g. sheet-to-sheet slot-die and spray coating, roll-to-roll slot die). Includes optimisation of the deposition procedure and post-treatment techniques.
- Integration and optimisation of manufacturing techniques
- Geometrical design of the pattern configuration to engineer the film thickness and film quality (roughness and number of pinholes) to assure good device overall performance through ‘smart design’ and selection of a proper deposition strategy.
- Written weekly reports containing process description, optimal printing conditions and discussion on results and prospects.
- As the team is relatively small, everyone is expected to help out with other tasks
What you need to know and characteristics that will help you be successful:
- Design of manufacturing processes
- Process integration and optimisation
- High-throughput ultra-thin film deposition from solution
- Experience in the preparation low-temperature solar cells is an advantage
- Project management
- Department
- Production
- Locations
- HQ Uppsala
