Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): The aim of this industrial research project is to develop new reactive high-ionised pulse magnetron spraying (HiPIMS) technologies to make smart transition metal oxide multilayer nanolayers for transparent electronics (TCO) and electrochromo (EH) material applications in cooperation between LU CFI and vacuum coating company Sidrabe Vacuum to unify the rolling-to-roll reactive R-HiPIMS technology. We offer to manufacture and explore functional TMO multilayer structure based on ReO3-WO3 and their combination with TCO as new bifunctional multilayer coatings. The project will be implemented in cooperation between LU CFI and vacuum coating company Sidrabe Vacuum.The proposed industrial research project will be implemented in cooperation with the Institute of Solid state Physics of the University of Latvia (LU CFI) and vacuum coating company Sidrabe Vacuum. The project will greatly promote the exploration of advanced materials in optical electronic devices, which, according to the International Technology Semiconductor Guide (ITRS2.0), will have a global impact, ensuring the competitiveness of Latvian science and industry internationally.In addition to the impact on the market, we expect significant scientific benefits resulting from the use of an interdisciplinary approach combining R-HiPIMS deposition technology (2.5. Advanced plasma technologies with theoretical quantum chemical method and description of experimental parameters with physico-chemical methods (1.3 physical sciences, 1.4 chemical sciences), focusing on computer modelling of substoichiometric oxides and heterostructure defect pretreatment, as well as modern synerkton methods.This interdisciplinary project consists of studies in physics and chemistry sciences (1.3., 1.4.) and materials engineering (2.5). The project is in line with the RIS3 sector of specialisation “Smart Materials, Technologies and Engineering Systems” and supports future growth sectors where high value added products and services exist [shortened; the full text is on the Kohesio page]
