Compact High pErformance QUantum cascadE laseR Sensors (CHEQUERS)
Date du début: 1 mars 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,
In this proposal we describe a timely and disruptive solution to the long-standing and vexing problem of the rapid stand-off detection of explosive, toxic or otherwise hazardous materials which are present within potential- or post-terrorist attack or industrial accident sites. We will achieve this by realising highly sensitive, state-of-the-art handheld and tripod-mounted instruments based upon a ...

Generic Integrated Forensic Toolbox for CBRN incidents (GIFT CBRN)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
"Forensic investigation is a key component in the fight against crime and the protection of EU societies. At present it is hampered by a lack of protocols and training in carrying out forensic analysis on CBRN-contaminated materials. The aim of GIFT-CBRN is to develop a forensic toolbox for investigating CBRN incidents. This toolbox would provide (1) procedures, sampling methods and detection of C ...

Ultrafast High-Average Power Ti:Sapphire Thin-Disk Oscillators and Amplifiers (TiSa TD)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2016,
Although hardly visible in daily life, today precision laser micro-machining is employed in a broad and rapidly growing range of medical and industrial applications significantly affecting everybody's life. Short and ultrashort pulsed lasers enable producing structures with sub-micron accuracy, for example diesel injection nozzles which help reducing air pollution significantly when compared to no ...

Nanostructured Efficient White LEDs based on short-period superlattices and quantum dots (NEWLED)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2016,
NEWLED will develop high efficiency and high brightness monolithic and hybrid all-semiconductor WHITE light-emitting GaN-based diodes. Power losses due to phosphor conversion and the problem of different ageing rates of the GaN LED pump will be eliminated by the development of phosphor free structures with increased brightness (power emitted per surface per angle). NEWLED will enhance the efficien ...

High Brightness COnical REfraction Lasers (HICORE)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
A fundamental property of lasers is the ability to propagate and be focused to very small spots with little divergence, termed beam quality. The ability to achieve high power low divergence operation (high brightness) is of paramount importance for many applications, both existing and potential, of laser devices. Effective ways to scale output power without compromising beam quality are limited ...
