CUNEX will develop and optimise new metallic powders that can be used as an alternative to ubiquitous silver powders in additive electronics inks used in mass production of high volume devices including solar cells, medical devices and batteries.

Renewable energies provide clean, inexhaustible, and increasingly competitive energy source differing from fossil fuels in diversity, abundance, and potential for use. Solar energy capacity in European Union has been increasing in recent years with Germany, Spain and Poland leading the way in new installations. In 2022, the European Union added a record-b...

Several advantages arise from the incorporation of carbon electrode in the perovskite solar cell (PSC) architecture such as reduced material cost, improved device stability and simplified device fabrication process as well as lower emissions. Thus, the primary objective of PEARL is to realize flexible perovskite solar cells processed with industrially via...

Fertiliser and clean water are resources a farmer needs to use wisely, due to firstly, the rising cost and shortage of fertilisers globally and clean water or water purification systems and secondly to limit the environmental damage of over use of fertilisers and discarding used fertilisers into the environment. In the event that insufficient fertiliser i...

A novel sensor system will be developed for real-time measurement of biomass, water and biocide contamination in sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs). Deployment of these systems will ensure SAFs are maintained in optimum condition to ensure efficient fuel use, improved predictive maintenance to avoid engine damage and eliminate fuel dumping.

Dycotec Materials and the Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult will prototype and demonstrate reduced cost and high performance power module architectures using additive processes.

ENERGY-3GBT will place the UK at the centre of next-generation power transistor production, ensuring UK industry is not impeded by global power semiconductor supply chain bottlenecks and can lead the world in improving energy-efficiency in the drive to net-zero. ENERGY-3GBT will develop, optimise and demonstrate low-cost UK-based pilot-scale manufacture o...

AIMES is a collaborative feasibility addressing the challenges with development in-mold electronics or IME, for Zero Emission Vehicles and the wider automotive sector. The project will improve the user experience in ZEVs through creation of smart surfaces, embedding electronics inside 3D surface materials, and enables further opportunities in integrated s...

Vehicle electrification is driving a revolution in power-electronics, where higher power densities are creating the **need** for enhanced thermal management in combination with higher operating voltages necessitating superior electrical insulation. **Project vision** is to address the power-electronics challenge by developing, low-cost **Thermal Interface...

PROFIT will develop techniques and barrier layer materials which will protect sensitive, flexible, conductive, interconnects and electronic devices against the effects of sulphur within rubber, during or post vulcanisation. The project output will be a batch of UHF RFID tags which will be subjected to a complete tyre manufacturing (vulcanisation) process ...

Smart wearables are becoming increasingly pervasive, driven by sustained advances in miniaturisation of electronics, improvements in sensors and connectivity, and a growing capability to embed electronics in a variety of products. The next generation of wearable electronics will include smart garments where the electronics are embedded within the textiles...
