HYPE 2026

June 22 - 24, 2026 | Athens, Greece

The Hybrid and Perovskite materials for energy, lighting, sensing and computing conference (HYPE26) will gather researchers and innovators working on advanced materials and devices for next‑generation optoelectronic, energy, and intelligent technologies, with a strong emphasis on halide perovskites and hybrid material platforms. It will focus on how the unique physical properties of halide perovskites, their low‑dimensional derivatives, and perovskite‑based hybrids can be exploited in functional devices. 

Imec will be participating in the HYPE 2026 conference. Sessions will highlight applications in solar energy conversion, light emission, optical sensing, and information processing, as well as perovskite‑enabled integrated and intelligent systems where materials, architectures, and computation converge. Contributions will combine experimental and theoretical work, using advanced characterization and modeling to probe device operation under realistic conditions. Particular attention will be paid to stability, scalability, and sustainability, aiming to connect fundamental insights in halide perovskite and hybrid materials with practical technological implementation.Join us to learn more on our latest breakthroughs and how to work with imec:
