Innovative ultra-BROadband ubiquitous Wireless communications through terahertz transceivers (iBROW)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

The demand for broadband content and services has been growing at tremendous rates, and predictions indicate that wireless data-rates of multiple tens of Gbps will be required by the year 2020, essentially for short-range connectivity. Currently available wireless technology cannot support these future demands, and so there is an urgent need to develop new technology platforms that are cost and en ...

Adaptive Data and Power Aware Transceivers for Optical Communications (ADDAPT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

Existing optical networks are driven by dynamic user demands but operate statically at their maximum performance and do not offer much adaptability. Thus the links are not energy-efficient. ADDAPT aims at the development and technology take-up of dynamic transceiver subsystems. By implementing performance and power adaptivity from system down to optical device, electrical circuit and transistor le ...

Low Cost Germanium Substrates for Next Generation 4-Junction Space Solar Cells Utilising Dilute Nitride Technology (LONGESST)

Start date: Jul 23, 2014, End date: Feb 1, 2017,

Multi-junction solar cell technology, based on III-V semiconductor structures grown onto Germanium substrates, is well established as the primary photovoltaic technology used in satellite power generation. As future satellite power requirements will significantly increase due to the adoption of technologies such as electrical propulsion, sensing and telecommunications, next generation space solar ...

Nanostructured Efficient White LEDs based on short-period superlattices and quantum dots (NEWLED)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 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 ...

Early Detection of Cancer using Lasers Demonstrator (EDOCALD)

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

According to the WHO statistics, cancer causes around 7.6 million deaths worldwide each year. Deaths from cancer are projected to rise to 17 million in 2030. Changes in lifestyle and improved prevention and screening policies could prevent up to 40% of all cancer cases.On 2 December 2003 the Health Ministers of the European Union unanimously adopted a recommendation on cancer screening based on th ...

Early Detection Of CAncer using photonic crystal Lasers (EDOCAL)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"In Europe there are 3 million new cancer cases per year. According to the WHO the burden of cancer can be reduced by systematic and equitable implementation of evidence based strategies for cancer prevention, early detection and management of patients with cancer. 33% of the cancer burden could be reduced if detected early and treated adequately. The WHO concludes that, early diagnosis of cancer ...
