At QubeDot, we take pride in the fact that our microLEDs are completely “Made in Germany”. From development and design to the manufacturing of our customized microLEDs, we offer the highest quality and innovation at every step.

But we go even further: Our microLEDs are also utilized in our microscopy solutions.

QubeDot’s digital microscopes are equipped with the most advanced technologies, such as brightfield, phase contrast, digital holography, and fluorescence, as well as custom features. We provide tailored solutions for your specific applications. Our devices offer a compact, portable design (footprint 15×15 cm²), integrated heating, a “One-Click-to-Image” Approach, modularity, and a customized software design with counting, autofocus, object detection and tracking.

Everything from a single source, everything “Made in Germany”.

QubeDot completes the EIC journey

Our iSMILE project – integrated scalable microLED engines – marks a historic milestone: it is the first-ever EIC-funded project that completes the full EIC journey, receiving both EIC Pathfinder and EIC Transition funding and has now been selected for the EIC Accelerator.

The project builds on the success of the ChipScope and SMILE project.

The success story of QubeDot would not have been possible without the EIC and our esteemed partners: Universitat de Barcelona, Technische Universität Braunschweig, and Università di Roma Tor Vergata.

We are deeply grateful for the support and are excited to discover what the future holds.

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.

QubeDot at the CS International Conference in Brussels

Our team from QubeDot is very pleased to have been part of the CS International Conference in Brussels.

Jan, our CTO and Co-Founder of QubeDot, has given a talk about µLEDs for structured illumination and the versatility of our SMILE® Technology to address multiple markets.

µLEDs with dimensions of 1 to 50 µm are becoming increasingly interesting driven by the µLED revolution in display technology.

Our µLEDs are in addition also used – among other applications – in biology, optogenetics, microscopy and process metrology.
