The company specializes in Horizontally Directed Crystallization (HDC), a proprietary method—developed with the University of Žilina—that enables production of ultra‑high‑purity, large‑dimension YAG and sapphire crystals (e.g., Yb:YAG, Nd:YAG, Ce:YAG) in slab/plate geometries. These offer up to 8.62× larger cooling surface areas compared to conventional formats, enabling superior thermal management, optical performance, and cutting-edge applications.
Politecnico di Bari was officially established in 1990 via Italian Law No. 245 as the national technical university for Southern Italy—the youngest of Italy’s three polytechnic universities.
Founded in 1972 in Lviv (then USSR) as the Lviv Research & Development Institute of Materials, serving as a premier institution under the Soviet Ministry of Radio‑Industry in radio‑electronic materials science.
Later reorganized into the Scientific Production Association “Carat” and became integrated into PJSC Concern‑Electron upon its formation.
Lviv Polytechnic traces its roots to a Real School established in 1816 by decree of Austrian Emperor Franz I in Lemberg (present-day Lviv). Though often cited as founded in 1844, it actually evolved from this Real School, becoming the Imperial‑Royal Technical Academy under Austrian rule.
