Introducing our revolutionary microLED-platform SMILE
SMILE is an acronym for “Structured Micro Illumination Light Engine” and comprises our microLED-array in a ready-to-use format with different pixel numbers and sizes, wavelengths and intensities.
Our light sources are conveniently controlled directly from the computer via USB. The SMILE-platform includes a customized microLED chip, electronics, housing, and a graphical user interface for seamless control.
Our software enables the user to construct lighting patterns in a very convenient way. The graphical user interface provides the possibility of calibrating the array and adjusting the voltage. In addition, this interface allows the saving and loading of sequences and animations; and provides image and measurement windows for various use areas. An application programming interface allows the SMILE-platform control to be integrated into scrips and applications such as Matlab, LabView and Python.
SMILE-platform at a glance:
– Controllable light field 8 x 8 pixels of 75 µm size
– MicroLEDs individually controllable by software with up to 16 kHz
– Easy setup to create desired light patterns
– Robust housing, direct integration in optical path possible
– Ready for immediate use with GUI and USB cable

Customized microLEDs for demanding applications – Webinar
Thanks to PhotonicNet GmbH we are pleased to present a special webinar on the topic of customized microLEDs for demanding applications for sensors, machine vision, and displays.
The online webinar will be taking place on March 28, 2023 at 2 pm.
Light-emitting diodes based on InGaN have established themselves as the dominant light source for applications ranging from general lighting to automotive. In contrast to large-scale HighPower-LEDs, microLEDs with dimensions of 1 µm are becoming increasingly interesting, mainly driven by the fact that they are the main contender for the “next generation” displays. In addition to this focus application, numerous further applications are only enabled by the precise LED arrangement at simultaneously high intensities and switching speeds.
Our CTO, Jan Gülink, who is responsible for the development of microLED solutions and platforms based on the InGaN material system with high intensities and modulation bandwidths at QubeDot, will host the webinar.
The webinar will provide a general overview of LEDs including the special properties of microLEDs, selected application examples will be presented and in the final open exchange questions and first ideas of the participants can be discussed.

This is going to be impressive!
We are excited about the activities leading up to this great event.
SMILE®-platform used for optogenetics
In close collaboration with the Institute of Quantum Optics (IQO) in Hannover, we were able to demonstrate for the first time that biological cells could be excited using our SMILE®-platform.
In the lab of Prof. Alexander Heisterkamp at NIFE (Niedersächsisches Zentrum für Biomedizintechnik, Implantatforschung und Entwicklung), Dr. Maria Leilani Torres and their team employ fluorescence imaging to visualize calcium fluctuations in living cells.
The cardiomyocytes express a light-sensitive protein called ChR2. The cells were stained with calcium-sensitive dye and are activated when illuminated by SMILE®-platform. The spontaneous electrical activity can be overridden by the illumination pattern.
Using our SMILE®-platform, cell cultures can be stimulated by different illumination patterns.
We are very proud that our microLED platform simplifies research by providing a compact and easy-to-use light source for targeted stimulation of cells with minimal adjustment required compared to other optical systems.
