Kintech Lab - Intagrated Tools for Inventive Solutions

Research & Development Service for Materials

The development of new materials with unique properties is the key factor for the hi-tech industry. Kintech Lab provides a cost-effective solution for screening potentially new materials and optimizing their properties based on advanced modeling and simulation. This approach relates material structure at the atomistic level to its macroscopic properties using the multilevel methodology. The revealed "structure-property" correlations open up a way to knowledge-based materials screening. This approach was successfully used by Kintech Lab in developing new materials with advanced optical properties, new solid solutions with phase stability, etc. Possible R&D applications to the development of new materials are listed below.
