ADvanced OPtical SYStem Design (ADOPSYS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

"There is a severe shortage in the European photonics industry of graduates and PhDs with broad expertise in modelling and design of industrially relevant optical systems and components. This shortage is aggravated because most applied design methodologies are strongly based on previous experience of the designer. In general, these methods also have a limited efficiency because they heavily rely o ...

Establishment of an integrated process chain for the cost-efficient manufacturing complex glass optics (CENTIMO)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Demand for complex yet low-cost glass optics is growing within the sectors of lighting technology, automotive engineering and in the areas of renewable energy. However European SMEs are continuously being confronted with the dual challenge arising from the trend towards increasingly complex geometries coupled with intense pressure on market prices.Still the state-of-the-art to manufacture complex ...

3D GaN for High Efficiency Solid State Lighting (GECCO)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Solid State Lighting sources, presently being completely based on the semiconductor material Gallium Nitride, will replace inefficient and environmentally harmful conventional light sources, and therefore contribute significantly to a sustainable energy saving and carbon footprint reduction. In order to further support this transition, white LEDs with higher efficiencies and lower cost per lumen h ...

Solid State Lighting for Europe (SSL4EU)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

The lighting industry worldwide faces a paradigm shift as a new era of lighting appears at the horizon: that is Solid State Lighting (SSL). Light emitting diodes (LEDs) based on inorganic semiconductors are mercury-free, have a long lifetime and instant on/off, can be colour tunable and most important: they will become the light source with the highest energy-efficiency in the near future. Thus, L ...

Alternative Fuels and Biofuels for Aircraft Development (ALFA-BIRD)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"ALFA-BIRD aims at developing the use of alternative fuels in aeronautics. In a context where the price of oil is increasing and with impact of fossil fuels on climate change, the sustainable growth of the civil aviation is conditioned by the respect of the environment. In this context, using biofuels and alternative fuels in aeronautics is a great challenge, since the operational constraints (e.g ...

"Coordination action on Risks, Evolution of threatS and context assessment by an Enlarged Network for r&D rOadmap" (CRESCENDO)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"Building on the experience of the PASR SeNTRE and STACCATO, the 2 year CRESCENDO Coordination Action intends to respond to the request of the users and the experts who attended these first workshops to continue working together and to enlarge their activities. They raised concerns on how to improve the innovation process, how to create a real European security market and how to strengthen Europea ...

Security of critical infrastructures related to mass transportation (DEMASST)

Start date: Jan 12, 2009, End date: May 11, 2010,

"To develop adequate and well accepted security for mass transportation in Europe and the citizens affected by it, is a formidable task. The malicious threats, particularly those posed by terrorists, require a comprehensive approach: if security improvements are patchy, perpetrators are likely to find the loopholes left. With their open access points and interconnections, surface mass transportati ...
