miniSMU App
Powerful, intuitive companion app
The included miniSMU MS01 companion application is the fastest way to get up and running performing a wide range of important measurements for solar cells, LEDs, transistors, and more.
Stability Features
Long-Term Stability Testing
Monitor solar cell performance over extended periods with our I-V Stability feature. Track crucial performance parameters like Voc, Jsc, FF, and PCE as they evolve over time.
- Automate repeated I-V sweeps at customisable intervals
- Visualise performance trends with real-time parameter graphs
- Run experiments for hours, days, weeks, or longer
- Essential for degradation studies and reliable device characterisation
Both miniSMU channels can be used to perform simultaneous stability experiments, maximising your research efficiency.
