2021 Feasibility Studies Lead participant

Q-Cell - Functionalised Plug and Play Vapour Cell Module

1 Dec 2021 to 31 May 2023

Awarded
£188,233
Total cost £268,904

Success in commercialising thermal vapour-based atomic sensors and devices is hampered by the availability of reliable, low-cost, quality vapour cells. Progress has been made in the manufacturing of wafer cells to allow for proof-of-concept demonstrations, but some of the more-challenging performance and functional requirements necessitate added functiona...

2020 Collaborative R&D

MAG-V : Enabling Volume Quantum Magnetometer Applications through Component Optimisation & System Miniaturisation

1 Jul 2020 to 30 Jun 2023

Awarded
£285,055
Total cost £407,221

Quantum magnetometers optically monitor the interaction between alkali-metal-atoms and an external magnetic field and detect the change in electron spin due to the magnetic field being applied. This allows the detection of micro-defects in materials and objects that are not visible or hidden from view. The MagV project will deliver the World's first comme...

2020 Study

GRAPHIC-MAN: Graphene Electronics Manufacturing in the UK

1 Jan 2020 to 31 Dec 2021

Awarded
£321,600
Total cost £459,429

This is a disruptive project to research and develop a manufacturing process for graphene electronic devices. Graphene, a single atomic layer of carbon, was discovered in 2004 at the University of Manchester, and its discoverers were subsequently awarded the Nobel Prize in 2010. This novel material has amazing properties: optically transparent, more elect...
