From 12 to 14 November 2019, InPrint Munich will once again showcase the emerging community of printing and industrial manufacturing specialists. The international exhibition of print technology for industrial manufacturing has become a central platform to present, discover and source smart printing applications that can be integrated into industrial production processes. A few months before opening day, more than 100 exhibitors from 15 countries have already confirmed their participation, occupying nearly three quarters of the 2017 exhibition space with bookings ongoing.
In December 2018, the BMBF-funded research project "Transparent Organic Photovoltaics (OPV) Glass Facade" (project name: TOP) ended as part of the funding initiative "Organic Electronics - Fundamentals of Technology and Application Scenarios." The aim of the joint project was to develop semi-transparent solar foils with a transparency of 15-30% at an efficiency of 8-10% and a suitable encapsulation. The consortium consisted of CreaPhys GmbH (Dresden), Fraunhofer FEP (Dresden), Fraunhofer ISE (Freiburg), Heliatek GmbH (Dresden) and the University of Ulm.
Isorg (Grenoble, France), a pioneer in organic photodetectors (OPDs) and large-area image sensors, and Sumitomo Chemical (Tokyo, Japan), a leader in OPD materials production and other fields, announced their agreement to develop new OPD products for use as smartphone fingerprint sensors and hybrid organic CMOS image sensors.
