user: Explain how 'Polychromatic low-threshold fibre laser' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

The ultimate goal of the proposed project Polychromatic low-threshold fibre laser (POLYFIL), is to train a talented researcher with high potential through a research focused on the development of a new type of fibre lasers based on innovative technique of the controlled light localisation. The success of this interdisciplinary project will lead to a novel attractive fibre laser design with multiple localisation-based characteristics including prescribed polychromatic lasing frequencies with disciplinary lasing energies, extremely low threshold and stable lasing output.The Fellow, Dr. Hongwei Yin will be trained in the emerging field of science, technology and industrial applications of new types of photonic and fibre-optic polychromatic devices at the Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies (AIPT) (host - Dr. Turitsyna) and the EU industrial secondments: sensing - FOCUS (Dr. Martín-Lopez), medical photonics - ARTPHOTONICS (Dr. V. Artjushenko) and food industry - BRANSCAN (Dr. A. Erdentug). The Fellow will transfer to the EU partners important knowledge of advanced numerical techniques and new designs of photonic devices. The POLYFIL outputs will be valuable to the EU photonics industry by offering the extremely low threshold polychromatic fibre laser that is of interest for a range of applications varying from laser science, quantum technology, and optical communication, to medical applications and optical sensing with a special focus on food industry. The technology resulted from the POLYFIL outputs will contribute to the enhancement of EU scientific excellence. An important outcome will be the formation of a strong long-term collaboration network between the Fellow’s host university in China, AIPT, FOCUS, ARTPHOTONICS and BRANSCAN, bringing together the European and

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Directed high rate evaporation of metallic and transparent materials onto polymer films' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Directed High Rate Evaporation of Metallic and Transparent Materials onto Polymer Films Directed Evaporation Main target is to develop a new, relatively simple evaporation technology for vacuum coating, based on specifically shaped radiation - heated porous sources with high directional characteristics, . compatible with various vacuum coating technologies, having significantly longer lifetimes than present boat evaporators, retrofittable into available equipment, for operation of present metallization coating processes at Iower cost and . for specific new processes without the high investment required e.g. for electron - gun evaporation sources, thus helping SME's to operate their existing equipment in a competitive way and to enter into new product fields. This technique is to be developed for 3 different kinds of evaporation coating materials: * Meltable, low boiling point metals, (such as Al, Cu) * Subliming metals (such as Cr) * Dielectrics, mainly oxides. The main future application field for this technology and coating materials will be roll-to-roll large area vacuum coating of films, especially for: * Packaqing films with evaporated barrier layers (metallic or transparent) * Decorative films * Films for technical applications, e.g. capacitor films, or films for safety applications. In this technical area, the following innovations are to be expected: * A better usage of evaporation material, less stray deposition residues, reduced cleaning effort and higher equipment up-time, as main effect. * Evaporation of other metals than Aluminum, e.g. Chromium, without the need for additional equipment for electron beam evaporation or flash evaporation. * Direct evaporation of dielectrics from inexpensive oxide mixtures, e.g. for transparent barrier layers for packaging fi

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'New business models for innovative energy service bundles for residential consumers' (2014-2020) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Despite the large economic energy saving potential in the EU, the energy service companies (ESCOs) market for residential buildings is much less developed than in other demand sectors (e.g. the industry or public/service sectors). Besides sector cross-cutting barriers (e.g. low energy prices, lack of information and awareness, lack of appropriate forms of finance) there are specific barriers which make a large-scale application of the ESCO model for residential buildings particularly difficult (e.g. lack scale or lack the necessary energy intensity to justify investment within the structure of present-day EPC model). In this context, frESCO aims to engage with ESCOs and aggregators and enable the deployment of innovative business models on the basis of novel integrated energy service bundles that properly combine and remunerate local flexibility for optimizing local energy performance both in the form of energy efficiency and demand side management. Such new service and business models will bring under common Pay for Performance Contracts (extended form of current EPCs) two currently differentiated service offerings to enable the realization of next-generation smart energy service packages. The strong presence of the industry in theconsortium (2 ESCOs, 2 aggregators, 3 ICT and technology providers and 2 engineering companies) and the end-users (1 Cooperative and 1 Hotel), supported by 3 knowledgable RTOs, will ensure the market uptake of frESCOs new business models. frESCO's new business models will be demonstrated in 4 different pilots (Spain, France, Croatian and Greece) with complementary characteristics in terms of building typology (single-/multi-family), climate, regulation, energy consumption, energy assets, consumer groups, etc., thus facilitating the replicabil

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Reconfigurable ubiquitous networked embedded systems' (RUNES).

assistant: **Concept**

We stand on the brink of a revolution, in which the worlds of the embedded system and the Internet will collide. This will lead to the construction of the first truly pervasive networked computer systems and thus open up a marketplace of a scale unparalleled in the history of technology. To realise this commercial potential requires a research and development programme focussed on the creation of the infrastructure that actively promotes the efficient and inexpensive construction and management of novel services and applications that are predictable and intuitively usable, so as to fulfil the global user expectations for invisible computing.The RUNES project represents the first major European effort in this area. Much current embedded systems development is bespoke. However, the environments we envisage are more complex than today's limited, controlled, deployments. This complexity is a consequence of heterogeneity, dynamicity, and scale, which means that bespoke development is too expensive and too limiting for innovative applications. To control complexity, we believe that it is necessary to build scaleable middleware systems and application development tools that allow users, designers, and programmers the flexibility to interact with the detailed environment where necessary, whilst affording the clarity that allows for ease of application construction and use.To do this, we will:- build middleware systems that are adaptive and intelligently self-organising- ensure middleware is robust and predictable enough to make computing truly invisible- build tools that allow for the automated assessment of usability, and that allow applications to be debugged- assess our developments in both real-world scenarios and emulations of large scale systemsThe RUNES consortium contai

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Bio-compatible electrostrictive smart materials for future generation of medical micro-electro- mechanical systems' (BioWings).

assistant: **Innovation**

Demographic trends, such as the rapid growth and ageing of the world population, are putting pressure on global healthcare systems, increasing the demand for smart, effective and affordable biomedical systems. Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are key components of such biomedical systems, enabling miniaturised devices with diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic functionalities. Although these systems are poised to revolutionize medical diagnostics and treatment approaches, the slow progress in the development of biocompatible actuator materials is still hindering this industry, preventing a host of new biomedical devices to enter the mainstream market. BioWings proposes to solve this deadlock through the implementation of a completely new class of smart actuating materials to be integrated in biocompatible MEMS. This family of materials is based on highly defective cerium oxides, which recently displayed radically different properties compared to existing ones: 1. They are non-toxic and environmentally friendly, unlike the current lead-based actuators; 2. They show exceptionally high and still uncapped electrostrictive response under moderate electric fields, enabling low power consumption devices; 3. They are fully compatible with silicon-based technologies and many other substrates, including metals and polymers. To fully explore the potential of these materials, foundational knowledge must still be generated on both the basic physical mechanisms and the manufacturing process. To reach this, BioWings focuses on: 1. Understanding, predicting, and controlling the mechanism underlying the unparalleled electrostrictive behaviour of highly defective oxides, by unveiling the effects of the microstructure, as well as the type and concentration of dopants; 2.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'European Flexible hEat Shields: advanced TPS design and tests for future in-Orbit demonstration' (EFESTO), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The EFESTO (European Flexible hEat Shields: advanced TPS design and tests for future in-Orbit demonstration) end goal is to improve the TRL of Inflatable Heat Shields for re-entry vehicles from 3 to 4/5, and pave the way towards further improvements (TRL 6 with a future In-Orbit Demonstrator).EFESTO aims at (1) the definition of critical space mission scenarios (Earth and Mars applications) enabled by the use of advanced inflatable Thermal Protection Systems (TPS), (2) characterization of the operative environment and (3) validation by tests of both the flexible materials needed for the thermal protection (flexible thermal blanket will be tested in arcjet facility in both Earth and Martian environments) and the inflatable structure at 1:1 scale (exploring the morphing dynamics and materials response from packed to fully inflated configuration). These results will be injected into the consolidated design of a future In-Orbit Demonstrator mission.Fully in line with the call subtopic b, EFESTO will provide advances in the three areas of thermal control, materials and structures through the design and testing of innovative inflatable TPS solutions for re-entry vehicles. It will enable new space mission concepts, which require bringing a payload from space to ground of a planetary body with an atmosphere beyond the current limits imposed by launcher fairing size or rigid heat shields geometrical and structural aspects. Morphing solutions will allow for example landing bigger or heavier payload on Mars or will enable the reusability of launchers upper stages enhancing European reusability and cost reductions in the access to space industry. Non space applications in the areas of materials and structures will also be considered.Leveraging on the consortium background and on pa

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Time-resolved thermodynamic parameters in donor-acceptor super-molecules and in photo-switches, analysed by laser-induced opto-acoustic spectroscopy'.

assistant: **Concept**

Photoexcitation of biomimetic molecules, e.g., undergoing an electron transfer (ET) reaction or an isomerization, leads to optically well characterized intermediates. However, the phototransformation thermodynamic parameters, e.g., the enthalpy and entropy changes are not readily obtained. Laser-induced optoacoustic spectroscopy (LIOAS) is a suitable technique to study time-resolved thermodynamic profiles of photoreactions and has been successfully applied to molecular systems and biological photoreceptors. We plan to apply LIOAS to (1) carotene-porphyrin-acceptor 'supermolecules' (important in artificial photosynthesis), which on excitation produce relatively long-lived (hundreds of nanoseconds) charge separated states with large dipole moment changes and ( 2) closed-ring photoswitches which on excitation lead to long-lived (up to milliseconds) open states with smaller dipole moment changes. The measurements will be carried out with the molecules dissolved in a polar solvent incorporated into detergent micelles acting as nano-reactors, in turn suspended in aqueous medium. Varying the temperature permits separating the contributions from the heat and the structural volume change to the signal. The rates of the ET reactions are determined by the reorganization energy (a vibrational plus a solvent term). LIOAS measures the structural volume changes upon excitation, as a consequence of changes in bond lengths and angles plus interactions with the medium. The possible relationship between these volume changes and the Marcus reorganization energy will be analysed. The study of the photoswitches will allow the comparison between systems undergoing large and smaller dipole moment changes. These studies will also permit to solve methodological problems, e.g., the determination

user: Explain how 'Biosensor Activated Biomanufacturing Scale-up' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

Industrial Biotechnology is one of the Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) identified by Europe. Harnessing the power of microbes for biomanufacturing is one of the most promising approaches to providing a sustainable alternative to a fossil fuel- and animal farming-based economy. However, fermentation scale-up remains a massive challenge to the commercialization of bioprocesses, ultimately hindering the sector from reaching its potential. Enduro has developed a game-changing synthetic biology plugin – Enduro Sense – to bridge the scale-up gap and enable cheaper and scalable continuous microbial biomanufacturing. After successful developments, we are ready to perform large scale demonstrations with commercial strains from industrial partners, achieving a key milestone that will unlock further investments to finance the commercial deployment of the technology.This EIC grant is crucial to position our company in a market that is rapidly evolving.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Decoding the dynamics of NAD-Capped mRNAs: translational regulation of defense genes induced by plant intracellular immunity' (DynaCapETI) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Plant diseases critically impact global agriculture, economies, and society, underscoring the imperative for deeper insights into plant disease resistance and sustainable protective strategies. Recent pivotal findings from my host lab reveal a synergistic enhancement between plant cell-surface and intracellular immune systems. These findings suggest a complex system where intracellular immunity intensifies cell-surface immunity via sophisticated defense gene regulation. My central goal is to discern the intricate transcriptional and translational regulations of defense genes in plant immunity and to uncover how pathogenic effectors might potentially disrupt these processes during the dynamic dance of plant-microbe co-evolution. I will be addressing three objectives: 1) the crucial role of the NAD+ cap in defense gene dynamics; 2) the intricate translational dynamics of defense genes during immune responses; and 3) how pathogens cunningly alter mRNA decapping to weaken plant defenses. Leveraging advanced sequencing tools, I am poised to comprehensively map and profile defense gene regulation during effector-triggered immunity, known as intracellular immunity. This engages multiple disciplines including biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics. I aim to probe the roles of plant NAD-RNA, Nudix hydrolases, and Nudix effectors in defense gene modulation. The overarching outcome is to elucidate the intricate gene regulation framework of intracellular immunity, placing emphasis on the dual layers of plant immunity, and thereby redefining our grasp of pathogenic effector dynamics. This project will not only enrich my academic insights into plant immunity but will also refine my research skills, promise valuable networking and personal growth in project lead
