Authors: Livia Silva (UNOVA), Hans Kleemann (TUD), Eirini Koutsouroubi (HMU), Jakub Krzeminski (WUT), Yusuf Mulla (RISE), Olivier Ronsin (FZJ), Jerzy Szałapak (WUT)
Submission date: 04-07-2024
This document gives an overview of the incoming projects that required modelling and simulation activities (TA1.2) offered by the EMERGE consortium between June 20th, 2023 and June 20th, 2024.
There have been nine projects project proposals formally requesting modelling and simulation activities (TA1.2) in the last year of the EMERGE project. One project has been rejected. For three of them (all projects requiring joint modelling and experimental activities), TA1.2 modelling activity was actually not expected (project owner’s mistake/misunderstanding at submission) or has not been implemented (lack of time/priority). Among the five accepted projects really requiring TA1.2 activity, four were pure modelling projects, only one a joint modelling/experimental project.
The projects are all related to ideas with very low degree of maturity, mainly submitted by experienced researchers of academic institutions. Personal communication between EMERGE project partners and applicants still remains the most effective dissemination tool at this stage.
Three projects have been implemented in this time period, remotely, by the EMERGE partner FZJ itself, as a simulation service. Together with the previously completed projects (see deliverable D5.5), FZJ implemented five projects and JOR one project. Two accepted projects are to be implemented soon by FZJ and JOR, respectively. The implementations have been very successful: the results are in-line with the expectations, the projects owners foresee a significant impact of the results in terms of product or publication.
The main concerns regarding TA1.2 activities are still the low number of incoming projects, as well as the maximal project duration which is too short for these low-maturity topics and might discourage submission.
D5.8 - 1st Interim report on design and architecture of devices and systems, FLAPEP connected
WP5 - TA1 – Access to design, modelling and simulation
Authors: Inês Cunha (UNOVA), Hans Kleemann (TUD), Jakub Krzeminski (WUT), Claude Leiner (JOR), Jorge Martins, (UNOVA), Yusuf Mulla (RISE), Olivier Ronsin (FZJ), Jerzy Szałapak (WUT)
Submission date: 10-09-2023

D5.9 - 2ndInterim report on design and architecture of devices and systems, FLAPEP connected
WP5 - TA1 – Access to design, modelling and simulation
Authors: Livia Silva (UNOVA), Hans Kleemann (TUD), Eirini Koutsouroubi (HMU), Jakub Krzeminski (WUT), Yusuf Mulla (RISE), Olivier Ronsin (FZJ), Jerzy Szałapak (WUT)
Submission date: 08-07-2024
This document gives an overview of the incoming projects that required design and architecture of devices and systems activities (TA1.1) offered by the EMERGE consortium between June 20th, 2023 and June 20th, 2024.
As a conclusion, seven projects formally requesting design and architecture of devices and systems activities (TA1.1) have been submitted in the last year of the EMERGE project, by only four groups, some of them submitting several projects. This is in remarkable progress as compared to the first period (see deliverable D5.8) thanks to active advertising. All projects are joint modelling/experimental projects because they deal with CAD-design of devices which are then fabricated in the same project. For the design part of these projects, offer from the EMERGE partners WUT and RISE partners have been requested. All incoming projects target at low-maturity ‘proof of concept’ devices.
Three projects are accepted but not fully implemented yet. Three projects involving TA1.1 activity have already been implemented with a very positive feedback. The scientific support of the EMERGE partner is judged crucial, which shows that EMERGE has an important added value beyond providing access to experimetal or modelling tools and methods. In addition, discussions of EMERGE partners with the project owner prior to project submission are judged crucial for proper project definition.
The main concern regarding TA1 activities still remains the low number of incoming projects.

Authors: Eirini Koutsouroubi, Konstantinos Rogdakis, Katerina Anagnostou (HMU), Jakub Krzemiński (WUT), Rita Branquinho, Pedro Barquinha, Rodrigo Martins (UNOVA)
Submission date: 19-07-2024
In this deliverable are reported the significant advancements made in the preparation and application of Graphene-Related Materials (GRMs) and oxide inks for various electronic and energy-harvesting devices. GRMs are synthesized from graphite, followed by liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) to produce inks using environmentally friendly solvents. These inks are deposited onto flexible substrates and further processed for the development of flexible elec-tronic devices. Additionally, the use of perovskite active layers in high-performing solar cells and moisture energy generators (MEGs) has been explored.
In this context, various ink formulations and printing techniques have been developed for flexible, wearable, and self-powered sensors, as well as bio-compatible electrodes for real-time health monitoring devices. These projects have involved the use of advanced equip-ment for screen printing, ink formulation, and sample testing.
Oxide inks, produced using solution combustion synthesis (SCS), have been optimized for different deposition methods such as flexographic printing, inkjet printing, and slot die coat-ing. These inks are versatile and adaptable for electronic applications such as thin-film tran-sistors (TFTs), sensors, and optoelectronic devices. The continuous optimization of GRM and oxide inks has led to significant progress in the development of flexible electronics and energy storage solutions.

Submission date: 04-08-2023
Deliverable D8.1 “1. Demonstrators characterization transnational access provision interim report”(M23) falls within the scope of workpackage WP8 (transnational access TA4 – test and validation of prototypes and demonstrators), which aims to provide external users with access to a diverse range of technology infrastructure essential for testing, quality assessment, and reliability evaluation of FLAPEP (flexible, large area, printed electronics and photonics) related materials and devices. This report focuses on two specific installations that play a crucial role in advancing FLAPEP technology:
• Devices validation & standardization: This installation addresses a key obstacle in the widespread adoption of FLAPEP technology – the standardization of evaluation methods for FLAPEP components. Performance and stability tests of products will be performed under industrial protocols in simulated and real conditions. Various tests are performed, including device and display characterization, piezoelectric/ ferroelectric characterization, analysis of applicability in electronics/ biomedical engineering, characterization of layers and coatings, evaluation of cross-correlation between structural properties and functionalities of nanomaterials, and thorough analysis of all production steps with fast defect identification.
• Device metrology: This installation focuses on the precise characterization of developed structures and integrated systems, including their electrical and mechanical properties evaluation, and to provide properties verification during all development steps needed for improved product quality.
Together, these installations under WP8 provide essential resources for researchers and innovators in the FLAPEP domain, offering access to cutting-edge technology infrastructure for comprehensive testing, standardization, and precise characterization of materials and devices. This interim report serves as a foundation for forthcoming deliverables, where specific case studies and their outcomes will be thoroughly investigated.
