A Guided Matter-Wave Interferometer on a Atom-Chip (MatterWave)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
The ultimate aim of the proposed research is to make ultra-sensitive matter-interferometry available in a compact and eventually portable device. Specifically, we seek to test the ideas in a guided matter-wave interferometer based on ultracold bosonic atoms. We will explore matter-wave interferometry in macroscopic traps as well as on atom-chips. Such device has the potential to induce a step chan ...

Design of Thin-Film Nanocatalysts for On-Chip Fuel Cell Technology (CHIPCAT)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2016,
chipCAT aims at the knowledge-driven development of a novel type of thin-film catalysts for silicon-based “on-chip” micro fuel cells (u-FCs). Combining fundamental surface-science, model catalysis, and first-principles computational studies, a detailed understanding of the surface chemistry on complex nanostructured catalysts will be achieved. This microscopic-level understanding will be used to t ...

Ultrafast Dynamics using ATTosecond and XUV Free Electron Laser Sources (ATTOFEL)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
"Worldwide there is great excitement about two new ultrafast XUV/x-ray sources that are presently coming available. Attosecond XUV pulses by high-harmonic generation (HHG) will now allow for the first time to “make movies” of ultrafast electron motion, and thereby to investigate photo-chemical processes beyond the Born-Oppenheimer limit. At the same time, XUV/x-ray Free Electron Lasers (FELs) base ...

Advanced theories for functional oxides: new routes to handle the devices of the future (ATHENA)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 31 mai 2012,
"Transition metal oxides are the building blocks of future microelectronics, due to outstanding properties such as, e.g. colossal magnetoresistivity and electroresistivity. Envisioned applications are countless, from spintronic devices to multiferroics, to non-volatile magnetic memories. Despite the huge amount of work already accomplished, a deep and complete understanding of these systems is st ...

Nanopatterning, Production and Applications based on Nanoimprinting Lithography (NaPANIL)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,
The NaPANIL project aims to develop processes, materials and tools, both for manufacturing and for control, for truly 3-dimensional nanosurfaces with feature dimensions ranging from 50 nm to several m. The nanosurfaces will be realised using various variants of nanoimprinting lithography. The dedicated application is to control light at nanostructured surfaces and a few potential high impact prod ...

Technology for Wafer-scale Carbon Nanotube Applications (TECHNOTUBES)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,
Carbon nanotubes are materials with a set of unique electrical, mechanical, surface and thermal properties. Yet their adoption in mainstream applications has been limited by mass production and device integration. This project develops the first 300mm wafer-scale equipment for production of carbon nanotubes on surfaces. The project will cover the design, engineering, process control, quality assur ...

Optimization of Si solar cells, plastic materials and technologies for the development of more efficient concentRatION photovoltaic systems (ORION)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2011,
The development of renewable energy is a central aim of the EU Commission's energy policy. Concentration PhotoVoltaics (CPV) has been demonstrated to be a good solution in PV industry and in the last years has become more attractive and several companies have been founded with the main goal of decreasing the cost of PV-generated electricity. The main objective of this project is the optimization o ...

Understanding interactions between cells and nanopatterned surfaces (NanoScale)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2011,
The study of biological processes occurring at the nanoscale is becoming a new discipline at the border between Physics and Biology with major scientific challenges and new technological applications. In fact, interactions at the nanoscale between cells/neurons and surfaces with specific nanopatterns appear to control several major biological processes, such as cell proliferation and differentiati ...

Nanoscience Foundries and Fine Analysis (NFFA)
Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2011,
We intend to study the feasibility of an European cluster of nanoscience facilities, which will consist of 3-6 Centres closely attached to a number of selected Large Scale Facilities located within Europe (synchrotron radiation sources, neutron scattering sources, high power lasers including free electron lasers and high performance computing, etc). This cluster of nanoscience facilities will enab ...
