DI Franz Padinger, CTO for NANOIDENT Technologies AG, will speak about "Semiconductor 2.0: Products and Perspectives" at the Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition 2007. He will explain how printed semiconductor technology has taken mobile analytics and diagnostics completely out of the lab, enabling the development of costeffective, highly sensitive mobile testing solutions for the life sciences market.
NANOIDENT Technologies AG is the technology leader in the development and manufacture of printed semiconductor-based sensor solutions. One of its market-focused subsidiaries, BIOIDENT Technologies Inc., leverages this core technology to deliver lab-on-a-chip systems for mobile analysis and diagnosis, enabling cost-effective real-time detection of multiple chemical and biological parameters. BIOIDENT offers complete solutions for medical, environmental and chemical/biological testing applications.
WHO:
DI Franz Padinger, CTO, NANOIDENT Technologies AG
Mr. Padinger, a world-renowned scientist in the field of organic semiconductor photophysics, photochemistry and photovoltaics, developed the world’s first plastic solar cell and is responsible for NANOIDENT's R&D activities. Prior to co-founding NANOIDENT, he served for two years as the CTO of Konarka Austria, where he worked with Dr. Alan Heeger, Nobel Laureate and inventor of organic semiconductors.
WHEN:
Tuesday, September 25, 2007
2:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. CET
WHERE:
Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition 2007
Sheraton Frankfurt Hotel and Towers, Frankfurt, Germany
The 5th annual Organic Electronics Conference & Exhibition is hosted by cintelliq, a leading analyst for the organic electronics industry, and by the Organic Electronics Association (OE-A), the key industry association for organic electronics. The conference covers a broad range of topics, from applications to materials, equipment and process technology, and draws scientists, engineers, manufacturers and investors in organic semiconductor technologies and organic electronics.
WHY:
NANOIDENT’s unique expertise with printed optoelectronics allows a photodetector to be printed directly onto the lab-on-a-chip, greatly increasing system sensitivity while significantly decreasing system cost and complexity. As a result, affordable mobile analytics and diagnostics are available for a wide range of applications, from medical diagnosis to environmental testing to the detection of chemical and biological agents, providing real-time, point-of-use results to enable faster response to disease or contamination.
