The 3rd Perovskite Workshop at KIT was a huge success with over 90 participants. The rich programme opened up new perspectives and inspired discussions to intensify collaboration in perovskite photovoltaics. Special thanks to all the speakers from industry and academia who shared their valuable insights and expertise.

We look forward to future opportunities to jointly tackle the challenges and explore new opportunities in this exciting field of research.

Invitation to the 3rd Perovskite Workshop Baden-Württemberg. The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) together with the Center for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW), the ipv from the University of Stuttgart, and the Solar Cluster BW cordially invite you to the 3rd Perovskite Workshop Baden-Württemberg on October 11, 2024. The one-day event will take place at KIT in the Tulla Lecture Hall (Building 11.40) from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Selected keynote lectures will present and discuss current topics of perovskite research in the plenary. This year, a poster session will also accompany the program. The workshop day focused on perovskite will be rounded off with a subsequent laboratory tour.

Researchers from the Excellence Cluster 3DMM2O have used inkjet printing to create a compact multispectral version of a light field camera. The camera, which fits in the palm of the hand, could be useful for many applications including autonomous driving, classification of recycled materials and remote sensing.

Researchers at the Institute of Lighting Technology have succeeded in integrating a 2D temperature sensor array by printing it onto the heat sink of a processor. The array comprises 396 sensor pixels, enabling high spatial resolution and detailed representation of the processor's temperature distribution. Based on this information, the reliability and performance of computer systems can be further optimized. This form of monitoring also offers new possibilities in computer security. By fully integrating the sensor into the system, modifications to the system can be minimized.

Researchers of the Light Technology Institute at KIT and the Helmholtz Imaging platforms at the DKFZ German Cancer Research Center and Helmholtz AI have now found a way to predict the quality of the perovskite layers and thus the solar cells: using machine learning and new methods of artificial intelligence.

The optics and photonics student group here at KIT, Optics Students Karlsruhe (OSKar), received the 2023 SPIE Presidential Award for Outstanding Student Chapter, at the SPIE Optics & Photonics conference in San Diego. SPIE President Bernard Kress reported that the chapter stood out because of its breadth of activities, including International Day of Light (IDL) observations, industry visits, and social and networking events. Having celebrated their 10th anniversary in 2022, OSKar continues to have an active presence here at LTI and the university at large.

Mr. M.Sc. Raphael Pesch was awarded the SEW EURODRIVE STIFUNG 2022 Study Prize on May 11, 2023, which carries a prize money of 2500 euros. This award was bestowed upon him in recognition of his outstanding academic performance and master's thesis titled "Deformation Sensing and Object Identification with Elastochromic Photonic Materials“. The master's thesis was conducted during his stay at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Mathias Kolle (MIT, LBPE) and Prof. Dr. Ulrich Lemmer (KIT, LTI). We congratulate the recipient on this achievement and wish him continued success in his doctoral studies at the Light Technology Institute.
