Researchers at the University of Toronto’s Acceleration Consortium have discovered 21 novel materials for advanced organic solid-state lasers (OSLs) using a self-driving lab (SDL) technology. This automated system synthesized and tested over 1,000 potential materials, significantly accelerating the discovery process. The decentralized approach involved multiple labs worldwide, enhancing efficiency and collaboration. This breakthrough advances the field of molecular optoelectronics, paving the way for improved OSL devices with enhanced performance and functionality.
