Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Social Fund (ESF)) under the programme Thüringen - ESF (2014DE05SFOP014), managing authority: Thüringer Ministerium für Arbeit, Soziales, Gesundheit, Frauen und Familie, Referat 34 "Verwaltungsbehörde ESF". Beneficiary: Technische Universität Ilmenau. Location: Ilm-Kreis (NUTS DEG0T); Germany. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 646,291.72, as stated by the source. Runs 2019-04-01 to 2022-03-31. 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 research group 2D-Sens aims to investigate novel two-dimensional materials from the group of TMDs (Transition Metal dichalcogenides), to use their special properties for gas detection and to develop innovative concepts for gas sensors based on TMDs. The focus of 2D-Sens is on (i) chemoresistive TMD gas sensors with the highest sensitivity, selectivity and energy efficiency, (ii) fiber optic TMD gas sensors and (iii) TMD quantum sensor systems for gas detection. These concepts are of great strategic importance for the Thuringian sensor industry.
