White Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) are potentially highly efficient large area light sources, that can be used for general lighting applications in hitherto unprecedented ways, such as light-emitting flexible foils. In the past years, the luminous efficacy of prototype white OLEDs has shown a very fast, fivefold, increase. In principle, there seems to be no fundamental obstacle towards 100 lm/W efficiency, beyond that of fluorescent lamps. However, in practice the ever-increasing complexity of OLEDs (20 layers or more) now hampers further progress towards that goal, in part because reaching this efficiency goal is only of practical interest in combination with durability, colour stability and tunability, mechanical stability and ease of fabrication. For the further development of efficient white OLEDs, the availability of an experimentally validated opto-electronic device model will be crucial. Today’s “first generation” models, based on conventional understanding of transport and photo-physical processes, are at least incomplete for realistic OLED materials. The AEVIOM project aims at enabling a breakthrough in white OLED efficiency and lifetime by the development and application of an integrated second generation OLED model. After experimental validation, the model will provide a quantitatively correct physical description of the effects of disorder on the transport and photo-physical processes. The model will be the basis for numerical methods that properly include the entire chain of electrical and optical effects inside the organic semiconductor, as well as the optical outcoupling. Finally, experimentally validated recommendations will be given towards the realization of a breakthrough in white OLED efficiency and lifetime, and also in device manufacturing (simplified optimal layer structure).

The aim of this Network is to train nine young scientists to PhD level in the biological disciplines needed to understand the evolutionary origin of biological diversity. This understanding is critical to the proper management of biodiversity, especially at a time of rapid environmental change. Our approach is to select powerful model systems with which to investigate the process of speciation and related mechanisms and to apply modern techniques from quantitative and behavioural genetics, molecular ecology and environmental genomics. Students will receive advanced training through their projects, through institutional training programmes, through workshops and conferences organised by the Network and from visiting scientists. They will also be seconded to non-academic institutions that represent both end-users of our research and potential employers, including a commercial laboratory, a museum, a conservation organisation and a publisher.

Experienced Researchers from the Universities of Iasi, Brest, Jena, Manchester, Marrakech and Milano propose an Initial Training Network Marie Curie on the theme "Deterministic and Stochastic Controlled Systems and Applications". This project aims to unite the six teams with their complementary competences in - Controlled Systems: Deterministic and Stochastic Control, Game Theory, - Stochastic Equations: Stochastic Differential Equations, Stochastic Partial Differential Equations , Backward Stochastic Differential Equations, and - Levy processes as well as fractal processes, in order to investigate problems arising in the interaction between these competences and allowing to study, in cooperation with our industrial partners (coming from the bank and insurance sector), related problems in - Finance and Insurance, but also in - Natural Sciences, namely, the problem of transport in porous media. The Early-Stage Researchers and the Experienced Researchers recruited by the network will be integrated from the early beginning in research projects between teams with complementary competences which should allow them (as well as the qualified researchers from the different teams) to profit from synergy effects and find quite new answers to the research problems. Besides an individual research training under supervision of qualified researchers and a local training programme the young researcher will also profit from network-wide training offers including namely - annual schools on subjects reflecting the different competences of the network teams, - a first professional experience in research with one of our industrial partners, as well as - workshops and international conferences which will give to the young researchers the possibility to present and discuss their results in research and to find contacts also with researchers outside the network and representatives of all the industrial partners of our network.

Supporting the next generation of content-rich networked services on mobile devices is presenting major technical challenges for Europe’s semiconductor and Consumer Electronics industries. Unlike the standard PC architecture, these devices have huge variation in multimedia capability and must operate under widely varying network conditions. Software complexity growth on these devices is now outpacing software productivity improvements by a factor of 4 to 1. Limited by cost and time-to-market constraints, current practices result in client services that are statically defined and non-optimal within the context of operation. OpenMediaPlatform (OMP) aims to define an open service infrastructure for media-rich end-user de-vices that will address software productivity and optimal service delivery challenges. OMP innovatively combines two main streams of modern software engineering: 1) Split compilation techniques that leverage component based SW engineering and provide binary portability (CLI standard) with no performance penalty; 2) Standardized and open application programmers’ interfaces (API) for advanced multimedia stacks that support resource management and context awareness at component level. Together, these two technologies will deliver a computing tools infrastructure and a media infrastructure to ensure optimal deployment of dynamically composed media services that scale with device and network capabilities. The OMP approach will be demonstrated using scalable video coding on two different platforms. The expected results are: 1) An open-source GNU-based static compiler for the generation of processor-independent CLI binaries with additional metadata for deployment-time component optimization, 2) A CLI dynamic compiler and runtime system exploiting component-specific metadata, 3) A resource-aware system specification and design tool and 4) a set of improved standard API’s for multimedia components and a reference opensource project.

New production technologies of complex 3D Micro-devices through multiprocess integration of ultra precision engineering techniques (INTEG-MICRO)

The proposed project aims at creating new high precision manufacturing technologies to respond cost-effectively and eco-friendly to the mass customization paradigm within the production of complex shape micro parts, embedded systems and miniaturized products at micro/meso-scale level (from 10 to 10.000 micron range). The main objective of Integ-micro is the research and development of new hybrid and reconfigurable multitasking machines and combined processes based on integration of different ultra high precision techniques for the generation of 3D complex shape microcomponents made from different kinds of materials. Multitasking micromachining can be best described as the ability to perform multiple machining operations in one workholding configuration. This guarantees greater accuracy, reduced handling and plant area, faster throughput and increased productivity. The availability of several machining technologies on a single machine allows important synergies between the different machining methods. For instance, combining machining by chip removal and laser micro machine will provide the capability to remove (by laser) the burr remaining from the previous chip removal operation. Alternatively, chip removal machining and laser LIGA technique can be combined in order to machine small components that could not be produced otherwise. The project will bring high added value thanks to the minimum time loss in setting new production lines for strategic products through short reconfiguration time and reduced ramp-up phase. The above goals will be reached exploiting methods of sustainable production, including downscaling of machine size (machine size reduced of 5 times at least), new process chain approaches for dramatically reduced processing times and eco-friendly processes like dry ultra-high speed cutting (UHSC) at micro-meso domain (eliminate the use of cutting fluid to get the target of zero waste emission).

MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES COMBINED WITH SUBMICRONIC BUBBLES AND DYE FOR ONCOLOGING IMAGING (NANOMAGDYE)

The objective of NANOMAGDYE consists in developing tailored biocompatible magneto-optical nanosystems based on magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. The project will comprise the elaboration of the nanosystems and the characterisation of their structural, optical and magnetic properties. In vitro and in vivo tests will be carried out to test their biocompatibility. The combination of magnetic and optical properties will be achieved through hybrid nanoparticles made of a magnetic iron oxide core on which an organic layer (dye) will be grafted through a dendrimer molecule and a phosphate entity. This grafting strategy will be extended to bubbles on which magnetic nanoparticles will be attached. The grafting sites will be controlled in order to design new geometries and architectures from rings up to submicronic magnetic spheres. Magnetic nanoparticles with monodisperse size between 2 and 100 nm will be elaborated in order to increase the possibility range of achieved properties. The opto-magnetic nanoparticles will be tested in a medical application and a dedicated magneto-optical probe will be fabricated. Current methods for labelling the lymph node system use a dye (vital blue) or radio nuclide injection detected through optical or Gamma probes, respectively, or a combination of both types of markers. Combining optical and magnetic labelling into a single biocompatible nanosystem will provide higher spatial resolution than presently and avoid using ionising radiation to improve patient safety and medical effectiveness. Stabilized submicronic bubbles labelled with the optical-magnetic nanoparticles will play the role of a contrast agent currently used in echography imaging and facilitate the uptake of the iron nanoparticle, and therefore improve node imaging.
