Guiding Light through Disorder in Adaptive Photonic Resonator Arrays (PHAROS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

Planar photonic crystals are dielectric nanostructures that are pursued worldwide as a platform for integrated nanophotonic circuits. Such circuits will process signals coded in light and will consist of thousands of basic components such as resonant nanocavities. At present, unavoidable nanometer-scale disorder makes such large-scale integration impossible. Disorder causes the resonances of the n ...

Designing for Adaptability and evolutioN in System of systems Engineering (DANSE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

Systems of Systems consist of collections of (possibly independent, pre-existing, geographically distributed and following their own goals) constituent systems whose behaviours are coordinated to provide services and additional value with respect to their original intended operations. This kind of entities offer severe technical, management, and political challenges as witnessed by energy blackout ...

Next Generation Hybrid Interfaces for Spintronic Applications (HINTS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2014,

The development of conceptually new materials following a “double beyond” trend, that is going “beyond CMOS” with “beyond silicon” materials, is one of the most challenging issues for the next generation of products for Information and Communication applications. Future devices for information processing able to increase the public wealth and occupation require a further material downscaling, toge ...

DEmonstration of LIdar based Clear Air Turbulence detection (DELICAT)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Atmospheric turbulence encounters are the leading cause of injuries to passengers and crews in non-fatal airline accident. The number of turbulence accidents has been growing by a factor of 5 since 1980. A whole class of turbulence (Clear Air Turbulence), representing 40% of turbulence accidents, cannot be detected by any existing equipment including state-of-the-art weather radar. Operational co ...

Innovative Mid-infrared high Power source for resonant ablation of Organic based photovoltaic devices (IMPROV)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

High power and in particular tunable mid-infrared short pulse laser systems operating in the wavelength range between 3 µm and 11 µm have a large potential in different applications, e.g. analytics, medicine and micromaching. Up to now, those systems are only be realised by multistage set-ups consisting of bulk four or five different units, a configuration which is of course very complex, expensiv ...
