MIcrowave and TErahertz PHOtonics (MITEPHO)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

"MITEPHO (MIcrowave and TErahertz PHOtonics) is an Initial Training Network that seeks to investigate and optimize photonic sources for CW signal generation at Microwave and Terahertz frequencies. The main objective is to integrate these two disciplines, usually addressed separately, through the development of techniques based on the photonic oscillator concept, a rather new technique for generati ...

Comprehensive Modelling of the Earth system for better climate prediction and projection (COMBINE)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

"The European integrating project COMBINE brings together research groups to advance Earth system models (ESMs) for more accurate climate projections and for reduced uncertainty in the prediction of climate and climate change in the next decades. COMBINE will contribute to better assessments of changes in the physical climate system and of their impacts in the societal and economic system. The pro ...

Smart Nanostructured Semiconductors for Energy-Saving Light Solutions (SMASH)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

Solid state light sources based on compound semiconductors are opening a new era in general lighting and will contribute significantly to a sustainable energy saving. For a successful and broad penetration of LEDs into the general lighting market two key factors are required: high efficiency and low cost. Two new disruptive technologies based on nanostructured semiconductors are proposed to addres ...

Development of low-cost technologies for the fabrication of high-performance telecommunication lasers (DeLight)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

...ionality of edge-emitting lasers is the elimination of the regrowth stage, which adds to the fabrication cost, affects the laser performances (notably the reliability and the characteristics shift in time) and reduces yield. The surface micro- and nano-structures will be imprinted by the low-cost and high-yield nanoimprint lithography, which will contribute to reducing the fabrication cost.The dev ...

Advanced affinity tools and technologies for high throughput studies of the human proteome (AffinityProteome)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

High specificity affinity reagents (‘binders’) are essential probes for proteome research, enabling the detection and localisation of multiple proteins in tissues and fluids in health and disease, through the application of binder-based technologies (affinity proteomics). This proposal links the high throughput production of quality-controlled, recombinant binding molecules of different types (ant ...
