Autonomous Process Optimization
Ultrasonic MicroSpray nozzles enabled a self-driving laboratory to autonomously optimize and scale up the deposition of high-performance palladium films. Using real-time Bayesian algorithms, the system fine-tuned spray combustion parameters to produce conductive coatings exceeding 4 MS/m — doubling the performance of prior methods — while maintaining uniformity across large areas.
