The NewILUMIS project started one year ago, the team of scientists from the following institutions:
Łukasiewicz – Institute of Microelectronics and Photonics, Institure of Research for Ceramics in France, Fraunhofer IKTS from Germany, Instytut Mikroelektroniki i Optoelektroniki Politechniki Warszawskiej, and the representantives of the industry partner of Teknosystem Sp. z o.o. finally met here, in our labs, not online as they had in the past.

Apart from a seminar session, interesting discussion, and drawing up a plan for the upcoming few months of their cooperation, scientists of the Functional Materials group showed their colleagues around our optical, technological, and microstructural analysis laboratories.

The goal of the NewILUMIS project is to develop a new functional material based on layered ceramics and plasmonic structure as an innovative photonic component for lighting and sensing. Ultimately, the material will serve in environmental protection, medical diagnostics, bio-detection, and detection of chemical compounds.

The project is financed by Narodowe Centrum Badań i Rozwoju, ANR (Agence nationale de la recherche), and sachsen.de
