Extend the scope of your CIMPS system for the examination of OPV, LED, OLED, ...

The core application of the revolutionary Zahner CIMPS system is the determination of the dynamic response of photo-electrochemical systems like DSSC and OSC with modulated or switched light. With small effort CIMPS can be optionally extended to support several additional photo-electrochemical methods. In addition to all standard electrochemical and CIMPS methods, the CIMPS-emit package allows the recording of spectral resolved and integral emission characteristics in dependence of the cell voltage and the cell current. The resulting series of emission spectra is automatically stored and the data sets can be visualized, processed, analyzed and exported in manifold ways by means of the Thales lightspectra software.

Similar to the light absorbance measurement package, this option complements CIMPS by a 3rd party UV-VIS-IR spectrometer to enable spectral resolved light emission measurements. For integral emission, an additional NIST traceable calibrated photo-detector can be added. Like with the CIMPS-abs, automatic spectra series measurement vs. cellvoltage, current, time or charge can be performed and additional series parameters like temperature, voltage and pH can be used optionally. Of course, emission spectra recording can be triggered also manually while controlling the electrochemical parameters. Like for CIMPS-abs, the light spectra analysis package within Thales supports single / multi-spectra 2-D, multi-spectra 3-D and contour plot visualization for instance as emission, transmittance, absorbance, extinction in linear or logarithmic scale vs. wavelength or wave-number. Data export can be done in form of ASCII-data, as bitmap or as Windows®-EMF graphics via clipboard copy & paste or as file.

Additional methods:

• Lightemission voltage current characteristic (PVI)
• Spectral resolved PVI
