ACTIVE PHOTONIC DEVICES BASED ON PEROVSKITA-TYPE SEMICONDUCTOR NANOSTRUCTURES AND HIPERBOLIC METAMATERIALS: CHARACTERISATION AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Multi-regional Spain - ERDF (2014ES16RFOP002), managing authority: Subdirección General de Gestión del FEDER, de la Dirección General de Fondos Europeos del Ministerio de Hacienda.. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Cádiz Province (NUTS ES612); Spain. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 163,350; EU co-financing EUR 130,680 (co-financing rate 80%), as stated by the source. Runs 2018-01-01 to 2020-12-31. Source: Kohesio, EU cohesion policy projects managed by national and regional authorities (not CORDIS); selected because its summary names quantum technology. Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): THE MAIN AIM OF THE LNL-PHOTON PROJECT IS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF SEVERAL SOCIAL CHALLENGES, MAINLY IN THE FIELD OF ENERGY (LOW-ENERGY EMITTING DEVICES) AND SOCIETY (INTEGRATED PHOTONIC DEVICES FOR FUTURE WEARABLE AND PORTABLE TECHNOLOGY). THIS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND MANUFACTURING OF ELEMENTS, CONCEPT TESTS, OPTOELECTRONIC AND PHOTONIC DEVICES AND SENSORS, WHICH ARE MAINLY BASED IN SEMICONDUCTORS DEPOSITED BY WET PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY (SPIN-COATING, DRBLADING, DIP-COATING, INKJET PRINTING), SEVERAL TYPES OF NANOPARTICLES, PEROVSKITES AND COLLOIDAL QUANTUM NANOSTRUCTURES OF II-VI SEMICONDUCTORS. THE WORK PLAN IS WIDE AND AMBITIOUS, PROPOSING SEVERAL STRATEGIES TO DECIDE THE MOST ADEQUATE AND SUCCESSFUL ONES. IT IS STRUCTURED FOLLOWING THREE MAIN OBJECTIVES TO DEFINE THE WORKPACKAGES OF THE PROJECT: (1) LIGHT EMITTING DEVICES (LEDS OR CONVERSION BY BACK-ILLUMINATION) AND SENSORS, (2) PHOTONICS FOR EMITTING AND SENSING DEVICES, AND (3) NON-LINEAR PHOTONICS. THE FIRST OBJECTIVE HAS TWO ASPECTS, A DIRECT ONE THAT IS ORIENTED TO LEDS MANUFACTURING (ORGANIC-INORGANIC HYBRID TECHNOLOGY), AND ANOTHER INDIRECT ONE, WHICH USES NANCOMPOSITES CONSISTING OF POLYMERS WITH LUMINESCENT NANOPARTICLES THAT WOULD CONVERT A LED BACK-ILLUMINATION FROM 450 NM TO OTHER VISIBLE SPECTRUM WAVELENGTHS. THE MATERIALS TO BE USED WILL CONSIST OF SEVERAL TYPES OF PEROVSKITES OF METALLIC HALIDES AND II-VI SEMICONDUCTOR COLLOIDAL QUANTUM NANOSTRUCTURES. THE SECOND WORKPACKAGE IS ORIENTED TOWARD THE MANUFACTURING OF ACTIVE OPTICAL GUIDING DEVICES, LASER STRUCTURES AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE EMISSION OF THE PROPOSED MATERIALS USING HYPERBOLIC MATERIALS. THE THIRD WORKPACKAGE IS DEDICATED TO THE DEFINITION OF PHOTONIC DEVICES BASED IN THE NON-LINEAR OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SEMICONDUCTOR NANOSTRUCTURES INVESTIGATED IN THIS PROJECT. THE MAIN NOVELTIES OF OUR PROJECT, WHICH CAN LEAD TO HIGH-IMPACT PUBLICATIONS AND SOME PATENT, ARE VARIOUS: LAYERS BASED ON PEROVSKITE [shortened; the full text is on the Kohesio page]
