Piezoelectricity in 2D-materials: materials, modeling, and applications (Piezo2D)

European ComissionCoordinator
Piezoelectricity in two-dimensional (2D) materials is increasingly important because of its potential in realizing thin yet efficient and flexible piezoelectric devices. In contrast to traditional three-dimensional (3D) piezo- and ferroelectrics that are prone to size effects, piezoelectricity in 2D materials may be controlled by flexoelectricit...

Plankton-like Protocells for Artificial Photosynthesis Targeting Carbon-neutral Energy Vectors (PLANKT-ON)

European ComissionPartner
Global energy demands are continuously rising and necessitate green alternatives to fossil fuels, including wind and solar sources. Funded by the European Innovation Council, the PLANKT-ON project aims to develop a net-zero emissions technology inspired by nature that releases oxygen into the atmosphere and simultaneously produces formate as a p...

PRInted Symbiotic Materials as a dynamic platform for Living Tissues production (PRISM-LT)

European ComissionPartner
The EU-funded PRISM-LT project will use a hybrid living materials concept to create a flexible platform for living tissue manufacturing. The innovative bio-ink will contain stem cells integrated into a supporting matrix with engineered helper bacteria or yeast cells. The bioprinting process will produce a 3D patterned structure where stem cells ...
