SGPCM- Switching grapheme-plasmon with phase-change materials

Graphene plasmons (GPs), is enable the transport and control of light on an extreme subwavelength scale as well as the dynamic tunability via electric-gate voltage, which can be exploited for numerous applications such as for strong light-matter interactions, tunable infrared biosensing and absorption spectroscopy, subwavelength optical imaging, as well as for the development of tunable transformation optics devices, metamaterials and metasurfaces.
SPM2.0- Scanning probe microscopies for nanoscale fast, tomographic and composition imaging

Advanced Microscopy are widely recognized as one of the pillars onto which the research and manufacture of Nanotechnology based products is sustained. At present, the greatest challenge faced by these techniques is the realization of fast and non-destructive tomographic images with chemical composition sensitivity and with sub-10 nm spatial resolution, in both organic and inorganic materials, and in all environmental conditions.

MARINA - Marine Knowledge Sharing Platform for Federating Responsible Research and Innovation Communities

The objective of the MARINA project is to accomplish the resolution of marine related issues and problems following the responsible research and innovation principle, creating an all-inclusive Knowledge Sharing Platform, together with federating activities such as Mobilisation and Mutual Lerning workshops and exhibitions. The expected outcome of the Work Programme is a clear improvement of the integration of society in science and innovation.
Graphene Core1 - Graphene-based disruptive tecnologies

This project is the second in the series of EC-financed parts of the Graphene Flagship. The Graphene Flagship is a 10 year research and innovation endeavour with a total project cost of 1,000,000,000 euros, funded jointly by the European Commission and member states and associated countries.
SYNTOH - Synthetic Optical Holography

Synthetic Optical Holography, has paved the way for phase imaging in a variety of wide-field techniques such as optical microscopy. In scanning optical microscopy, however, the serial fashion of image acquisition seems to challenge a direct implementation of traditional holography.
Control de Intercapas para la realización de fenómenos físicos avanzados y dispositivos electrónicos

El proyecto INTERFACING estudia cómo las interfaces entre materiales muy diversos, tal y como un metal y una capa molecular, pueden tener propiedades electrónicas emergentes que no corresponden a ninguno de sus materiales de partida y cómo emplear dichas propiedades en dispositivos con aplicaciones en las tecnologías de la información y comunicaciones.
ARTE- Atomic Research for Topological Engineering

The objectives of ARTE (Project ID: 654469) are two. The topological quantum computation (TQC) deals with the transformations related to the overall shape (“topology”) of a quantum trajectory to perform operations on data and go beyond the limitations of quantum computation. It is a revolutionary technique because it will allow quantum operations to be error free and robust while taking advantage of the radically new approaches of quantum computation, which means smaller systems, less energy dissipation, and faster processing.
InfeMec- Nanomechanics of proteins involved in viral and bacterial infections

We will use bioinformatics and high-throughout screening techniques to identify molecules that alter the nanomecanichs of anchoring proteins and that can potentially be used to prevent infections.
E-CAM - An e-infrastructure for software, training and consultancy in simulation and modelling

E-CAM will create, develop and sustain a European infrastructure for computational science applied to simulation and modelling of materials and of biological processes of industrial and societal importance. Building on the already significant network of 15 CECAM centres across Europe and the PRACE initiative, it will create a distributed, sustainable centre for simulation and modelling at and across the atomic, molecular and continuum scales.
