Three-Dimensional Surface Nano-Patterning: Concepts, Challenges and Applications (ThreeDSurface)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Multifunctional surface nano-patterns on substrates are the foundation of semiconductor nano-devices. There is a major shortcoming of the existing surface nano-patterning techniques - in fact almost all synthesized surface patterns are two-dimensional (2-D) planar structures with low aspect ratio. Thus one of the most attractive advantages of nanomaterials, an extremely large surface area, is miss ...

Biomimiking the brain - towards 3D neuronal network dynamics (3DNeuroN)

Start date: Jul 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Our view is that the biological and computational components and the concepts of realized BIO-ICT interactions have lacked so far the complexity of the actual high level biological neural systems. Our vision is that three key features are needed for biological computational neuronal networks: 1. Actual 3D structures of neuronal cells and networks, 2. interactions between various types of neuronal ...
