The development of multi-functional materials, components or systems in photonics or photovoltaics with ultimate performances requires dedicated characterization benches, with specific combinations of controls and multi-physics measurements, sometimes at the limits of the state of the art in terms of performance.

Each new technological development is closely associated with the design, instrumentation and operation of a specific bench, for the duration of the project.

These benches enable the control of several dozen parameters (excitation: wavelength, power, polarization, focus, XYZ position and theta phi angle of incidence; component: temperature, current, voltage; environment: ambient temperature, vibrations, illumination) while measuring a large number of properties (reflectivity, transmissivity, absorption, spectral emissivity, power consumption, etc.).

Their development is based on recognized expertise in opto-mechanics, instrumentation and signal processing.
