RMG Research on optical microscopes (Research Mobility Grant 20FUN02-RMG1)
This Research mobility grant together with EMPIR project 20FUN02 POLight aims to enhance multiple optical measurement methods for use in nano-metrology.
Pushing boundaries of nano-dimensional metrology by light (20FUN02 POLight)
This project addresses this issue by developing novel methods to help bridge the metrology gap and in turn foster KET innovation. More specifically, this project will push the boundaries of optical measurement methods by realising a new generation of optical metrology systems, with unprecedented performances in terms of spatial resolution, traceability, reliability and robustness.
Traceable metrology of soft X-ray to IR optical constants and nanofilms for advanced manufacturing (20IND04 ATMOC)
The optics and semiconductor industries use innovative materials and complex nanostructures in their products whose optical properties are difficult to measure and often not accurately known. This project is developping advanced mathematical methods to traceably characterise these materials for wavelength ranges from soft X-ray to IR.
Traceable industrial 3D roughness and dimensional using optical 3D microscopy and optical distance sensors (20IND07 TracOptic)
To remain competitive, European manufacturers strive to make constant improvements in their manufacturing processes. The surface topography of a component part can have a profound effect on the function of the part. This is true across a wide range of industries (such as precision engineering, automotive and medical).
Standardisation of measurements for DC electricity grids (20NRM03 DC grids)
The shift towards more renewable and sustainable technologies has increased the attractiveness of DC grids as an alternative or addition to the existing AC grids
Green Transport Delta – Hydrogen
The main goal of the Green Transport Delta – Hydrogen project is to develop three hydrogen technologies: hydrogen combustion engines, hydrogen fuel cells, and next generation technology for hydrogen refueling infrastructure.
Metrology for traceable protocols for elemental and oxidised mercury concentrations (19NRM03 SI-Hg)
Creating a metrological framework to support growing demands for ‘green’ hydrogen as part of the EU’s climate strategy.
Metrology for temporal light modulation
LED-based lighting contributes to energy saving and the reduction of the environmental impact of lighting. However, LED lamps can show fluctuations in the light output known as temporal light modulation (TLM)
Metrology for the determination of emissions of dangerous substances from building materials into indoor air (20NRM04 MetrIAQ)
Given that European citizens spend more than 80 % of their time indoors, it is vital to have a healthy indoor environment. Building materials, such as paints, flooring, and from other products used indoors, such as furniture, emit harmful substances.
Instrument Transformers for Power Quality Measurements (IT4PQ)
The goal of this project is therefore to fulfill the needs of IEC TC 38 “Instrument Transformers” to establish PQ-relevant indices for performance assessment of instrument transformers, test procedures, reference setup requirements, and methodologies to quantify uncertainty contributions.
