user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Stochastic and statistical properties of dislocation plasticity'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The dominant mechanism for producing large irreversible (plastic) strain in atomic crystals is the motion of interacting dislocations, that are line defects in the crystalline lattice. Their collective dynamics plays a dominant role in plastic yield, strain bursts, micron-scale size effects and creep deformation at high temperatures. The project is motivated by the apparent technological need for developing a profound physically-based understanding of these phenomena. We will apply state-of-the-art experiments and well-established dislocation simulations to (i) investigate the stochastic properties of micron-scale plasticity and dislocation avalanches, (ii) explore the nature of the plastic flow transition, (iii) to develop a continuum plasticity model that accounts for boundaries and fluctuations and (iv) to investigate high temperature creep properties of 2D dusty plasma. By applying elements of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics we will develop higher scale models of these dislocation mediated phenomena. Completion of the project is expected not only to lead to top-level scientific results on the stochastic properties of collective dislocation dynamics but also to provide tools being promising candidates for further technological applications.The EU contribution will help the applicant to establish himself as an individual researcher after his mobility period and contribute significantly to the scientific success of his research career. By improving the chances of his permanent integration, the grant would help to transfer the knowledge he acquired abroad to the host country, and enable him to maintain his scientific international co-operations. The funding will, therefore, contribute for the European Union to maintain a leading role in the field of plasticity and

user: Explain how 'Integrated photonic transceivers at sub-terahertz wave range for ultra-wideband wireless communications' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

This project targets the development of compact and low power transceivers that enable wireless data transfer at sub-terahertz carrier frequencies and their application to future high data-rate short-distance communication links. The interest of the topic relies in the fact that advances in semiconductor technology, favourable spectrum policy and demand for gigabit throughput capabilities have created an opportunity for millimetre wave radio technology above 100GHz. The iPHOS research plan aims to address what has been identified as the Achilles heel" of systems operating in this frequency range: the lack of reliable, compact low cost sources which can give rise to commercially successful products.We propose optical techniques to generate the carrier wave, enabling us to integrate a high level of functionality such as tunability of the carrier wave and modulation to superimpose data. The carrier frequency will result from beating two optical modes from dual mode laser on a high speed photodiode with an integrated antenna. The technical challenge that iPHOS is going to address is the integration of all of these elements on a single chip, including dual-wavelength sources, passive waveguide for optical couplers and connecting waveguides, electro-optical modulators for data encoding and high speed photodiode for electro-optical conversion. This challenge will require a strong effort on chip integration. In addition, advanced packaging technology will contribute to the goal of providing a compact and rugged system.The first application field targeted by iPHOS are future on-board flight entertainment systems, effort led by partner THALES. Nevertheless iPHOS impact strategy includes channeling the designs and devices obtained through licensing design libraries within the Euro

user: Explain how 'Fabrication of Wide Bandgap Chalcopyrite Photovoltaics at Low Temperatures for Prospective Tandem Solar Cells' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

Adapting photovoltaics as a reliable renewable energy source, advanced technological solutions must be brought at the cell level. The power conversion efficiency targets must be higher than the currently available commercial single-junction solar cells of silicon (Si) or low-bandgap copper indium gallium selenide (CIGSe). The efficiency of photovoltaics can be increased by joining two cells in a single stack (top/bottom) called a tandem solar cell. Such a configuration needs a wide bandgap solar cell to be joined atop the commercial low bandgap Si or CIGSe photovoltaics. This project aims to develop such a wide-bandgap thin-film solar cell.  By careful compositional engineering, silver (Ag) will be substituted for a fraction of copper (Cu) in sulfur-rich CIGS to yield wide bandgap (1.65-1.7 eV) ACIGS absorbers. Ag substitution is expected to reduce the melting point of the resulting absorber (ACIGS), thus allowing its deposition at relatively low temperatures. This provision eliminates the bottom cell damage while adapting ACIGS as a top cell in a tandem configuration. The project also investigates defects in ACIGS and their mitigation by implementing adequate passivation strategies. The solar cell device architecture will be tailored to yield high open-circuit voltages reducing the non-radiative losses across the absorber/buffer layer interface. Drift-diffusion simulations will be carried out connecting the materials properties, defects, and recombination mechanisms with the observed experimental results. The small-scale ACIGS devices fabricated in the laboratory will be scaled up at the industry partner fabricating mini-modules. The expected project results have the potential to be a major milestone in the development of tandem PV and to be readily exploited in indust

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Marine Litter Prevention with Autonomous Water Drones' (WasteShark) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Marine litter costs the EU economy between €259 million and €695 million per year, affecting mainly the tourism and the fisheries sectors. Up to 90% of the plastic in the oceans comes from land, typically from rivers, canals, and ports. The problem must be then tackled at the source; once it reaches the ocean, 99% of the plastics eventually ends up on the sea bottom or inside marine life. To prevent marine litter, RanMarine has developed the WasteShark – a water drone that can autonomously clean up ports and inland waters. It has a carrying capacity of 550 litres and a buoyancy of 400kg, and multiple WasteSharks can coordinate to operate in self-organizing swarms. The WasteShark is also equipped with sensors that allow the drone to gather data about the environment while collecting garbage. The breakthrough of our product is its robustness, as it contains no moving parts apart from the standard thrusters, and its price, as it is an order of magnitude less expensive than existing alternatives. These characteristics have already convinced the Port of Rotterdam – the largest in Europe – to be our first paying customer after that a pilot concluded in Q1 2017 was positively evaluated. According to our estimates, thanks to the WasteShark (and related products) RanMarine will have an EIBTDA of over 2 million euros in 2020 and will employ 25 people by then.The WasteShark has been designed and built in the Netherlands by an international team of very experienced entrepreneurs, technologists, and business developers. Our goal is to make the WasteShark available commercially in Q3 2018. In order to be successful in this endeavor, we have to better assess the commercial potential of our innovation andrefine our go-to-market strategy thanks to the SME Instrument Phase 1 feasibility

user: Explain how 'Technology of compost production from sewage sludge with reduction of ammonia emission and heavy metal content' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Agricultural utilization of sewage sludge - as a high value manure- seems to be one of the best manners of its implementation. However compost production from sewage sludge carries two serious dangers: high heavy metals (HM) content (if sewage sludge come from industrialized areas) and high ammonia emission during the composting process. These two factors limit the possibilities of the most ecological way of sewage sludge utilization i.e. usage as a fertilizer in agriculture. Research in the last years has shown little data regarding the ammonia abatement from sludge composting processes. Data on HM remediation from sewage sludge' contrary to soils remediation - is almost non-existing in the scientific literature. Main goal of the project is to make sew age sludge available as an ecologically friendly fertilizer to be used in agriculture.This is done by:- removal of HM;- decreasing ammonia emission during processing.The project methods comprises an execution of two research tasks:- development of method for removal of HM from sewage sludge based on the preceding experiments with liquid manure electroremediation made by the Fellow at the Wageningen University in the framework of MC EIF;- laboratory experiments on the ammonia emission using the reactor for HM removal and an advanced bioreactor for modelling of composting of organic waste; these experiments will be based on the experiences of the Fellow developed during the project of estimation of ammonia emissions in different technologies of manure management leading by him in 2001-3 and training in 2004-5 at Wageningen University and Research which is one of the European centres in the field of ammonia measurement and abatement technologies. It is envisioned that the realization of the project will le ad to a significa

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Investigation of european specification for medium voltage power cable (EUROMVCABLE)' (EUROMVCABLE) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

In electrical power Supply, the medium voltage underground cables are representing a significant part of power distribution system. Various studies are carried out by utilities to improve the cost-effectiveness of the cable design. However, there is still a lot to do in the field of harmonisation in Europe to rationalise the cable design. As a result, a large variety of medium voltage extruded insulation cables are in use in Europe, with designs depending on the operating environments and experiences of each utility, and some standards that have not changed over the past decades. In addition to the cost-reduction challenge inherent to the cable design specifications, the other main challenge taken up by the partner is to rationalise the options for cable design by drawing up common specifications.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Biodiversity and functions of microbial communities associated with sunken woods in marine environments' (2002-2006), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Sunken woods are widespread in the ocean with highest densities found within sediment accumulation basins and canyons. Recently evidence is accumulating on the importance of these organic matter deposits in the ecology of the ocean because of their potential role in the overall carbon budget of the marine waters. They could also be crucial in the dispersion of organisms across the ocean basin acting as stepping stones" to other highly reduced habitats. Understanding the mechanisms governing the transformation of this pool of carbon could give clues on a more sustainable management of the ocean.Despite their importance, to the best of our knowledge there are no microbial diversity studies of wood remnants in the ocean. In the present proposal our aim is to determine the ecosystem-level role of individual microorganisms associated to sunken woods by linking microbial diversity (i.e. assemblage composition) with functions (i.e. biogeochemical role). Serial Analysis of Gene Tags (SAGT), a newly developed s mall subunit rRNA gene sequence-based methodology that can determine relative abundances of microorganisms will be use to characterize the sunken wood microbial ecological diversity.SAGT will be combined with flow cytometry to investigate active microbial consortia. Correlations of the biodiversity encountered with concomitant physicochemical measurements will help to understand the biogeochemistry of these habitats. We will likely find a shift from heterotrophic to chemosynthetically based communities a long the decomposition process, which has never been demonstrated in sunken woods. We will further characterize the functional diversity of geochemically relevant genes through phylogenetic analysis. Because microbial communities in these habitats are to tally unexplored,

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'MARINE environmental in situ Assessment and monitoring tool BOX'.

assistant: **Concept**

MariaBox will develop a wireless marine environment analysis device for monitoring chemical and biological pollutants while installed into a buoy, a maritime means of transport or a mooring. The device, based on novel biosensors, will be of high-sensitivity, portable and capable of repeating measurements over a long time, allowing permanent deployment at sea. The word “MARIA” is the plural of the Latin “mar” (sea) and expresses the wide applicability that this system offers in multiple locations where low-cost and real-time in situ analytical monitoring devices are required. The approach includes: a) a sensing and analysis box, b) a modular communication system, c) a flexible power system, d) a software platform, and e) a cell phone application. The box will transmit the collected data in real time through different channels according to local needs and geographical location: radio, GSM/GPRS/3G, WiFi, WiMAX or satellite link. The unit will be designed to be remotely controlled and will implement the OTA programming and OTA configuration features which will allow the user to update the firmware of the MariaBox unit and modify various configuration parameters wirelessly. Remote updates are a key factor in deployment scalability since it offers the only possibility of easily updating or reprogramming the devices after the initial deployment. Therefore, the maintenance costs are significantly reduced. Biosensors will be developed for 5 man-made chemicals and for 4 categories of microalgae toxins relevant to shell fish and fish farming. The novel biosensors will contribute to new standards for environmental analysis. The analytes selected for the biosensors are in line with 1) the Article 16 of the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC), 2) the Decision 2455/2001/EC and 3) T

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'MINIaturised diagnostics and frequency-conversion MODuleS for ultrafast lasers'.

assistant: **Innovation**

There is a strong pull for practical ultrafast laser sources from a magnitude of applications and associated markets. These applications often demand systems with high reliability and maintenance-/alignment-free operation while at the same time, be highly adaptable to cater the numerous requirements imposed by the specific application. One of the key issues that prevent state-of-the-art ultrafast lasers offering such capabilities is their intrinsic complexity which often causes the requirement of intervention from highly skilled engineers and makes implementation of ultrafast technology into demanding applications outside research laboratories almost impossible.MiniMods aims to address these short comings by developing miniaturised laser diagnostic tools and frequency conversion modules that are small enough to be integrated directly into the optical heads of ultrafast lasers and synchronously-pumped optical parametric oscillators. These modules will not only add direct readouts of key performance (e.g. pulse duration, spectrum, beam quality) and functionality but will also offer the ability to use adaptive control loops to control the laser performance parameters to unprecedented accuracy. This will negate the need for any user intervention when operating these systems, thereby making them suitable for a wide range of real world applications.While there are various ultrafast diagnostic tools on the market already, these are generally very expensive and bulky apparatus that don’t lend themselves for integration into fully engineered systems. MiniMods will overcome this by exploiting a series of new technological concepts developed by the consortium to realise autocorrelators, beam quality detectors, spectrometers, compressors and third harmonic generators.

user: Explain how 'BENE Innovation  Internationalisation services 2019' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

The project aims at offering specific innovation services to 2 different groups of SMEs based in the Brussels Capital Region: - the SME-I / FTI / FET Open beneficiaries on the one side, and - the SMEs having a high potential for growth and internationalisation by the enhancement of their innovation management capacity on the other side.These services will be an integral part of the Enterprise Europe Brussels services and will be provided in the frame of a sounded client's journey approach, in lin with the company's life cycle. Although for the SME-I / FTI / FET Open beneficiaries the proposer depends on the number of successful SME granted and notified by EASME, a funnel approach will be adopted for both groups of SMEs in order to have an upstream estimation and selection of the SME potential existing in the region.This funnel and selective approach will also take into consideration the permeable frontiers which divide one SME group from the other, in the light of the innovation needs and capacities existing at a given time of the SME lifecycle.The service provision for Group 2 will be ensured via a structure process, relying on a contest approach, SME pre-selection, set-up according to a predefined methodology, which relies on ad-hoc tools (and based on 9 criteria) and methodologies, designed with the aim to select only those SMEs with capacity, clear intent and ambition to benefit from the innovation management assessment. In function of the score obtained in the different criteria, the SME will be selected (or not) to benefit from the innovation management capacity assessment held with one of two retained tools, both complaint to EU standard CEN/TS 16555-1 “Innovation management system”.The BENEI2 2019 proposal addresses the obstacles which hinder SME from being more
