„Before one changes the
world, it would be more important maybe, not to ruin it.“
Paul
Claudel (1868-1955), French diplomatic and poet
Dear business
partners,
Dear
collegues and friends of the LOTUS-family,
The quotation from Paul
Claudel accompanies and inspires me again and again to new approaches.
Certainly it´s my aim to
meet the ever changing demands of the market and we hope to inspire you
with
our products. Equally it is our collective responsibility to take care
and
protect the environment. From this motivation we aim to build on new
creative
ideas and proudly present some highly innovative products to you this
year.
I´m convinced that with
this change of thinking, we will achieve significant advancements in
our
customer’s applications. I would be pleased to welcome you
personally at one of
the several exhibitions during this year or meet at your location for a
face to
face discussion.
The entire LOTUS-team and I
wish you all the best for a fulfilling, healthy and peaceful year 2011.
Kindest regards
Joachim Mink

Cooperation with University of Konstanz
R&D project crystalline
solar cells
University
of Konstanz and Lotus Systems recently agreed upon a joint R&D
project in
the field of surface treatment of crystalline solar cells. In the
course of
this project a test station has been installed in January on the
premises of
Konstanz University. Scientists and process engineers of the
photovoltaic group
of Lotus Systems will run a comprehensive series of experiments and
tests over
the next couple of months. Targets are a major reduction in process
times and a
substantial increase in process quality. Pre-tests have shown that a
significant contribution to net parity can be expected.
The
photovoltaic group of the University of Konstanz, headed by Prof. Dr.
Giso Hahn,
is one of the worldwide biggest academic groups for applied research in
silicon
photovoltaics, producing numerous patents that have been successfully
transferred
into the industry. The institute has an
excellent reputation in the world of photovoltaics.
Lotus
Systems plans to extend the application of new wet process technologies
to
other fields of crystalline silicon processing. Namely the chemical
treatment
of multi crystalline bulk material and of wafers after sawing is in the
focus.
Lotus
Systems has previously delivered wet process equipment for laboratory
applications to the University of Konstanz in 2010. The requirements
were to
provide a maximum of flexibility and quality, meeting the highest
safety
standards. The custom manufactured
solution
has been in use for several months now.
