Program/Call name

Technology/application foci covered

Opening/Cut-off dates

a)

New materials and devices in submicron technology
  1. Development of submicron technologies:

a) for preparation of 2D periodic arrays composed of insulated sub-micron particles or multilayer systems containing such particles by deposition and self-assembling under various conditions, such as an external magnetic or electric filed (bottom up method) or by deposition and pattering using a high resolution lithography, such as electron beam one (top down method)+ b) for fabrication of 2D and 3D thin film systems by chemical and physical deposition methods with applications in sub-micron electronic, magnetic, and electrochemical systems and components of new generation.

  1. Application of new elements and components base on sub-micron technologies for:

a) magnetic and other type ultrahigh density recording media (several Gb/cm2), b) development of high sensitive magnetic and optical sensors with applications in informatics, metrology, health care and environment.

  1. Research and development of ceramic composites (based on Si-N, Si-C) and metallic materials (based on Al, Cu, Ti) with a structure controlled at the sub-micron level which exhibit unique mechanical, thermal, electrical properties and self-detecting ability. The materials will be applicable in mechanical engineering, automotive industry, medicine, electrical engineering.

4. Development of materials using mineral biotechnology methods, mechano-chemical and chemical procedures with the aim to prepare new sorbents for gas and solid waste disposal, opto-electronic, magnetic and semiconductor products and pigments. Application of sub-micron particles to immobilize biologically active components for a targeted drug delivery into pathological zones etc.
