Nanomaterials and nanotechnology for advanced photovoltaics (NanoPV)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

The NanoPV project aims at making a breakthrough step-change in photovoltaics by the removal of a set of bottlenecks which have been identified to block the application of nanostructures for high-efficiency, low-cost solar cells. The bottlenecks arise from the present lack of up-scalable processes that can meet the needs for nanomaterials in PV applications, and the lack of relevant equipment and ...

European 450mm Equipment & Materials Initiative (EEMI 450)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 1, 2013,

Large-scale semiconductor fabrication is now standardised on 300mm diameter wafers. However, as demand grows and node dimensions diminish, major chipmakers are considering offsetting the growing costs of miniaturisation by increasing wafer size to 450mm to cut cost per produced die. A prerequisite is the availability of the required quality wafers and equipment able to handle larger wafers. The EN ...
