SODIUM SOLVENTS FOR OPTOELECTRONIC APPLICATIONS

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Competitiveness and sustainable development - CY - ERDF/CF (2014CY16M1OP001), managing authority: Γενική Διεύθυνση Ευρωπαϊκών Προγραμμάτων, Συντονισμού και Ανάπτυξης. Beneficiary: Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου. Location: Cyprus. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 999,868; EU co-financing EUR 849,887.8 (co-financing rate 85%), as stated by the source. Runs 2017-03-31 to 2023-02-02. 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): Materials prepared from solutions satisfy the demand for inexpensive and large-scale production based on printing techniques, with flexibility allowing their incorporation, deposition or mixing with various surfaces and matrices including flexible and transparent substrates. Among the various materials made from solvents, hybrid organic-inorganic perovskyites have recently emerged as excellent materials for energy applications. In a different field, the discovery of quantum phenomena in nanocrystals aroused great interest in colloidal nanomaterials, resulting in the synthesis of stable nanostructures with precise size control, elaborate shapes, and a multitude of optoelectronic applications. The NANOSONICS project aims to exploit the synergies of the two technologies for the production of active layers based on colloidal nanulates for efficient light absorption and emission devices. Successful CPNs manufacturing results have recently appeared, but there is a lot of room for improvement until they are efficiently incorporated into devices. The field can benefit significantly from a systematic, rational approach based on cutting-edge methods relating to the composition, processing and characterisation of these materials. The initial objective is to understand in depth the basic properties of the material and to investigate their stability under environmental conditions. Afterwards, various methods will be used to create conductive solids and optimise the absorption, emission and intensification properties for their incorporation into efficient electro-optic devices.
