TNO at Holst Centre & Solliance
We will take you on a tour of the facilities at the TNO at Holst Centre and Solliance, which is a short walk away from the conference centre. There are 3 different sections to this tour and attendees will be able to attend all 3. Numbers will be limited to 36 people, again on a first come, first served basis.
This tour+networking drinks will end at 5.45pm.
A) Printed Electronics labs (2D/3D) Printing
The Holst Centre lab on printed electronics encompasses S2S and R2R tooling for printed electronics prototyping and small series manufacturing. The lab has various screen printers and pick and place machines. Next to this, we also have finishing labs where for example we can integrate printed electronics with textiles or convert 2D printed electronics in 2.5D shapes through thermo-forming. Finally, we have a newly founded lab for 3D printed electronics.
B) Thin-film solar research (Solliance)
Thin-film solar research. Thin-film solar cells offer large possibilities in design and application since it is flexible, lightweight, and transparent. This next generation solar cells open the possibility to apply solar cells on any imaginable (curved) surface. TNO, partner in Solliance, is focussing its research on cell technology, optimising cell architecture, materials and production technology of perovskite based tandem solar cells. Deposition technologies are solution based printing technology and vacuum deposition technologies.
C) Thin Film Electronics
Thin Film Electronics process capabilities entail panel-level thin film technology on substrate sizes up to 32 x 35 cm2. Deposition technologies that are employed are e.g. sputtering, (PE)CVD and spin- and slotdie coating. In addition specifically developed large-area atomic layer deposition technology called Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition can yield very conformal thin films over large areas. Patterning of material layers is performed via photolithography and subsequent wet- and dry etching. The infrastructure is employed to realize integrated functional devices, such as thin film batteries, water electrolysis stacks and integrated microfluidic devices for Organ-on-Chip applications
Networking Drinks At The Experience Centre at Holst Centre
All attendees on the TNO at Holst Centre and Solliance tours are invited to some networking drinks at The Experience Centre. The Holst Centre is continuously pushing the boundaries of electronics with new form factors. The resulting innovations are leading a paradigm shift in application domains ranging from energy storage to healthcare. Our updated Experience Centre neatly captures some of these innovative applications. We cordially invite you for an informal get together at our Experience Centre, to see the showcased innovations up close, and to engage in interesting conversations with our experts. This is also a great networking opportunity, with drinks being served in a cozy setting
