The efficiency of our materials at application temperatures is a metric of high importance at PLT. To understand their efficiency, nicknamed PLQY for photoluminescent quantum yield, we temperature cycle the materials to characterization the PLQY change with respect to temperature.
This script calculates the sample PLQY at designated 'temperatures of merit' from the raw measurement files.
The measurement films from the instrument are saved in the TDMS format, a binary file format from National Instruments that is similar in structure to a Mongo BSON.
