Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Social Fund (ESF)) under the programme EU Structural Funds Investments - LT - ERDF/ESF/CF/YEI (2014LT16MAOP001), managing authority: Finansų ministerija. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Vilnius County (NUTS LT011); Lithuania. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 597,628.7; EU co-financing EUR 597,628.7 (co-financing rate 100%), as stated by the source. Runs 2017-12-27 to 2021-06-26. 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 project focuses on the development of technology for the cultivation of bismuth-containing nano-derivatives, the study of their physical properties and the search for possible applications. Two groups of objects will be investigated: quantum pits with three-member or four-member bismodic layers are important for the components of infrared (IR) optoelectronics and derivatives with elemental bismuth and binary bismuth layers, which are important in the search for new materials in the phase of topological insulators. Combining optical spectroscopy and teraherc pulse excitation spectroscopy results will determine the breaks in electron energy bands between bismuth-containing semiconductors and other layers of A3B5 materials and determine optimal layer formations for Type I and Type II quantum pits for medium infrared radiation sources. Derivatives of such sources will be grown by epitaxy of molecules, prototypes of these devices will be produced and tested. The use of molecular fibre epitaxia and atomic deposition will produce nano-layers of elemental bismuth and bismuth Albi, as well as nano-derivatives with Kais, analyse their physical characteristics and provide prospects for practical use.
