As a Pioneer of the Original Optical Technology

As a Pioneer of the Original Optical Technology

Josuke Nakata, President

The twenty-first century, the century where information technology is changing the world, is also called the “Century of the Environment.”

Since its foundation in 1980, Kyosemi Corporation has been working as a research and development-oriented company that supports the progress of cutting-edge industry by its optoelectronic technology. Today, it conducts business in the fields of opto semiconductor devices and solar power generation, and commercializes and markets original products including optical communication devices, optical sensing and control devices, and the spherical photovoltaic solar cell Sphelar®.

Carving out new fields with flexible ideas and a positive can-do spirit free from preconceived ideas—an embodiment of this attitude of ours is the spherical photovoltaic solar cell, developed using the spherical silicon single crystal technology that uses the free fall of melting silicon through a drop tube. This technology has not only significantly reduced the loss and energy of silicon production compared to those of conventional technologies but also brought about an epoch-making spherical solar cell that can achieve efficient photoelectric conversion by receiving light from every direction. The cell is expected to contribute to the exploitation of solar energy and the improvement of the global environment in the twenty-first century.

Based on this potential capacity of ours to develop technologies unparalleled in the world, we are stepping forward to the next major stage. We, in particular, strive to create products only possible by those of us who put together the three technical areas, i.e., optical sensors, communication, and power generation. In order to create products that make our customers truly delighted and also contribute to the progress of society, we hope to continue to make steady, modest, and sincere efforts in our business and fulfill our social responsibilities as a corporation.

We would be very appreciative if you could give us further guidance and encouragement in the future.
