Our technical infrastructures span key domains for photovoltaics

Research at IES takes place in state-of-the-art facilities spread across our four locations. These include silicon production reactors, cleanroom spaces for micro- and nanofabrication (LABCEL), equipment for materials and device characterization, PV module and BOS testing labs, outdoor testing facilities, and our advanced PV devices lab (IBLAB).

These labs support all internal research staff and are also accessible to external collaborators from industry, research centers, and universities. You can learn more about each facility in the following tabs.
