Speaker Biography

Martin Pfeiffer studied physics in Tübingen, Lancaster and Dresden. In 2000, he obtained the PhD degree from the TU Dresden for a thesis on „Doping of organic semiconductors for use in organic LED and organic solar cells", supervised by Prof. Karl Leo. From 2000 to 2005, he has been leader of the Organic Optoelectronics Group of the Institut für Angewandte Photophysik, TU Dresden. In 2002, he spent four months at Princeton University in the group of Prof. Stephen Forrest. He is cofounder of Novaled AG, Dresden and Heliatek GmbH and since 2006 CTO of Heliatek GmbH.

Company Profile

Heliatek GmbH, Dresden, Germany is a common spin-off company from the University of Technology Dresden and the University Ulm. It has closed its first major financing round in 2007 with BASF, BOSCH, Wellington and the High-Tech Grunderfonds as investors. The mission of HELIATEK is to develop a mature technology of organic vacuum deposited solar cells and introduce it into the market. The technology development comprises tailored organic absorber materials, device integration and production processes. The new technology enables the production of light-weight, and if required flexible, large-area solar cells at low costs and with little material and energy consumption.
