NANO-CHIRAL: Chiral nanostructures

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Champagne-Ardenne - ERDF/ESF/YEI (2014FR16M0OP004), managing authority: Conseil régional Grand Est. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Aube (NUTS FRF22); France. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 92,000; EU co-financing EUR 46,000 (co-financing rate 50%), as stated by the source. Runs 2019-09-01 to 2022-12-31. 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): 2D materials are currently at the heart of a revolution in nanotechnology, materials, electronics and optics. These materials, which appeared in the wake of graphene, combine extraordinary physical properties with dimensions that are those of a simple sheet of atoms. The NANO-CHIRAL project aims to hybridise these materials with metal nanostructures in order to improve their optical properties. In particular, polarised light emission at room temperature will be sought. To do this, we will develop innovative architectures allowing the integration of these new materials into optoelectronic devices. Applications of such a device include high-definition 3D display (nano-pixels) and secure communications (quantum encryption). More generally, the NANO-CHIRAL project will help implement the knowledge and know-how related to 2D materials in the Grand Est region.
