Short Period Superlattices for Rational (In,Ga)N (SPRInG)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

The scientific mission of this project is to develop a novel (In,Ga)N alloy that offers completely new opportunities to tune bandgaps and piezoelectric fields in quantum structures for highly efficient optoelectronic devices. This novel “rational” (n InN/m GaN) alloy is based on short period superlattices that stack integer numbers of m (n) monolayers (MLs) of InN (GaN), i.e. heterostructures of p ...

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 ...

Reconfigurable Microsystem Based on Miniaturized and Nanostructured RF-MEMS (NANOCOM)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 1, 2014,

Future wireless systems will have to achieve self-reconfigurable operations for real time efficient optimization of their performances. RF-MEMS switches will allow to face this challenge and open the route towards reconfigurability of high power systems, but their reliability is still nowadays an issue. The aim of NANOCOM project is to develop a new approach for future generation of smart systems ...

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 ...
