Project description



    The project intends to design and test the overall dielectric and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) properties of the proposed composites of polymers having metal binding functionalities with rare metals and metal oxides and to promote the novel concept of nano-conductive-polymer composites for microelectronic applications at GHz (microwave) domain: micro-shielding systems, energy harvesting and gas sensors.

    General aim:

    - Develop a new concept of nano-conductive-polymer composites with predefined architecture and customised dielectric and EMC properties, based on block copolymers having b-ketoester functionalities used as stabilizers for nanoparticles of rare metals and metal oxides (expertise of Cypriot team);

- Test, assess and benchmark the overall dielectric and EMC properties of the proposed composites, against the ones of massive or multilayer systems currently used in sandwich structure applications, in order to provide important information about the overall engineering feasibility of the novel concept (expertise of Romanian team);

- Promote the use of the proposed composites for microelectronic applications at GHz (microwave) domain in some civil and defense domains related to: micro-shielding systems, energy harvesting and gas sensors (synergy of the proposed interdisciplinary cooperation).
