Piezoelectronic Transduction Memory Device (PETMEM)

Start date: Dec 1, 2015, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

Computer clock speeds have not increased since 2003, creating a challenge to invent a successor to CMOS technology able to resume performance improvement. The key requirements for a viable alternative are scalability to nanoscale dimensions – following Moore’s Law – and simultaneous reduction of line voltage in order to limit switching power. Achieving these two aims for both transistors and memor ...

Smart MEMs Piezo based energy Harvesting with Integrated Supercapacitor and packaging (smart-MEMPHIS)

Start date: Dec 15, 2014, End date: Jun 14, 2018,

Smart-MEMPHIS project addresses the increasing demand for low-cost, energy-efficient autonomous systems by focusing on the main challenge for all smart devices - self-powering. The project aims to design, manufacture and test a miniaturized autonomous energy supply based on harvesting vibrational energy with piezo-MEMS energy harvesters. The project will integrate several multi-functional technolo ...

Energy-efficient piezo-MEMS tunable RF front-end antenna systems for mobile devices (EPAMO)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 1, 2014,

Future wireless communication systems need to cope with the increased number of frequency bands and advanced mobile phone standards supporting high data rates. At the same time mobile phone systems have to become more energy-efficient in order to contribute to the Grand Challenge “CO2-reduction”. The EPAMO project will address both aspects by exploring and implementing multiple innovative process ...

High volume piezoelectric thin film production process for microsystems (piezoVolume)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

This proposal will address high volume production of MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems) with a piezoelectric thin film as active element (piezoMEMS). This technology can fulfil many of the requirements of sensors and actuators in tomorrow’s smart systems, as a result of the large displacements, high sensing functionality and high energy densities that can be obtained, compared to pure Si-MEMS ...
