Institute of Energy Conversion (IEC) Tour

When: Thursday, September 10 from 11:00am to 12:00pm

Where: 452 Wyoming Road

Description: We will be taking a tour of the facility, led by scientist and researcher, Dr. Steven Hegedus. Pizza will be provided afterward. Space is limited on the tour to 10-15 students. Please email Aryeh Kuller by Wednesday, November 9th, 2011 with the subject Header IEEE IEC TOUR. Established at the University of Delaware in 1972, the Institute of Energy Conversion (IEC) is devoted to the research and development of thin-film photovoltaic solar cells and other photonic devices. The IEC is a totally integrated laboratory focused on fundamental materials and device research carried out in parallel with process engineering studies and analysis of film deposition and processing. This enables the correlation of the properties of completed devices with their fabrication, all in the same lab. Close collaboration between IEC staff and industrial partners ensures that the research is relevant and includes state-of-the-art process development.
