Illuminex Corporation develops advanced nanomaterials, targeted at a diverse range of applications. The company has developed a proprietary platform technology based on our ability to produce arrays of vertically aligned nanowires comprised of a wide range of materials on a versatile renge of substrate materials and configuration. In many ways, the nanowires are similar in appearance to bristles on a brush or blades of grass. Illuminex nano-engineers the arrays using materials designed to take advantage of the unique physical properties that are manifested in structures at the nanoscale. Thus, by pairing the nanowires (typically 1 billion “bristles” per cm2 of substrate) with the proper substrate Illuminex produces Functional Nanomaterials. Illuminex bottom up approach to engineering is an essential element to the paradigms of 21st century industry: offering a means of making materials that offer the unprecedented performance attributes associated with nanotechnology while manufacturing the materials at low-cost due to reductions in waste-by-products, energy consumption, and materials usage. Illuminex sees large opportunities for utilizing functional nanomaterials in electrical energy generation and storage, Sensor technologies for security and biomedical applications, and a wide range of other areas that face critical technological challenges to meet the needs of 7 Billion People with dignified accessibility for all.
Illuminex Corporation focuses it’s research and development efforts on developing production techniques for producing functional nanomaterials that are amenable to rapid scale up for manufacturing material compatible with existing designs: thus, offering performance improvements in products or components already under production and the possibilities that lie in the unforeseen inventions and breakthroughs nanotechnology enables.
The company is primarily developing nanowire array materials and products targeting the rapidly evolving Energy sector with product development concentrated on the solar energy, and electric vehicle battery markets. The extraordinary physical properties that are manifested in nanowire arrays are utilized and engineered to realize the possibilities for technological innovations that continue to be developed by the Illuminex team and our extensive network of collaborative partners.. Our experienced science professionals are constantly turning innovative ideas into device and material realities through our expertise at nanowire array engineering.
