OPSA - Centre of Excellence for
Optical Spectroscopy Applications in Physics
The aim of this project is to improve the level of scientific
and technological research in the Centre for Solid State Physics and
New Materials of Institute of Physics in order that it should become
the Centre of Excellence for Optical Spectroscopy Applications
(OPSA) in Physics, Material Science and Environmental Protection.
The OPSA Centre should contribute to improving the existing and
establishing new links with European Centers in the field of
applications of the advanced spectroscopy techniques in diverse
fields of the natural science, through the active exchange of
scientists between OPSA Centre and European institutes and
universities, international workshops and training of young
scientists.
The main objectives of the Centre of excellence for OPSA are as
follows:
•To promote long term research into understanding phenomena,
mastering processes and developing research tools in the field of
Nanoscience and Nanotechnologies through an upgrade and renew of our
experimental techniques.
•To develop human potential by educational and training activities.
•To promote cooperative research and technological and educational
activities between research centers, universities and industry in
the field of Micro- and Nano-technologies and Microsystems.
The OPSA project addresses the following thematic area of FP6
Programme: 3.4.1 Nanotechnologies and nanosciences. In particular
this project contributes to: 3.4.1.1 Long-term interdisciplinary
research into understanding phenomena, mastering processes and
developing research tools.
Data about project: OPSA 026283 project signed on 29.06.2006;
Duration of project is 3 years; Budget: 400.000 €
Head of Project: Prof. Dr Zoran V. Popović.
CoMePhS - Controlling Mesoscopic Phase Separation
CoMePhS 517039 project is FP6 STREP project on Controlling
Mesoscopic Phase Separation. It belongs to
thematic priority: Nanotechnologies and Nanosciences:
Knowledge-based Multifunctional Materials and New Production
Processes and Devices. The main objective of the CoMePhS project is
precisely to understand, manipulate and control the phase
competition to a level that allows mastering of the resulting
mesoscopic texture.
Duration of project: 42 months; Budget: 207400 € (our share in a 24
month period, EC contribution 50%). Our group leader: Dr Zoran V.
Popović. Project ended in November 2008.
