The aim of the project is to carry out applied research and development in key segments of the semiconductor value chain, eg. new materials with an overlap into quantum technologies, technologies for front-end production, instrumentation incl. electron microscopy and laser systems, wafer and chip diagnostics, low-power and radiationresistant microelectronics, sensors, optoelectronics, SoC with embedded intelligence, WBG-based power semiconductors, power electronics, intelligent power modules, integrated devices.

Research and development of relief micro and nanostructures using the light-guiding effect, research and development of diffractive optically variable image devices based on aperiodic structures, research and development of technology enabling the integration of micro and nanostructures using the light-guiding effect and nanostructures using the diffraction phenomenon on a single master created by a single exposure of a writing device based on the principle of gray scale electron lithography in order to create an advanced complex security arrangement for optical document security.

The Precise Large-Volume 3D Printing Technology for Advanced Materials Engineering project aims to develop a new additive technology combining micron resolution with high printing speed. The solution combines a laser and optical system for multi-beam interference, mechatronics, and specially developed printing resins. The technology is aimed at industrial applications in medicine, electronics, and engineering.

The project aims to develop an integrated biochip including microfluidic platform and SERS substrate, as well as a comprehensive experimental protocol for high-demand clinical applications. The primary objective is to identify bacteria and analyze metabolites secreted by bacterial cells in response to external stimuli. These metabolite concentrations are below Raman spectroscopy's detection limit.

Fundamental research on electron/ion-gas-solid interactions, in particular the generation, multiplication and high-efficiency detection of secondary, backscattered and transmitted electrons under conditions of controlled positive ion concentration and flow, will be studied using numerical simulations.

The project aims to increase radiation safety and preparedness during routine and emergency nuclear fuel inspections. The project is therefore focused on developing a compact laser system for remote detection of surface defects in fuel rods under high radiation conditions.

The aim of the project is to confirm the possibility of quantifying microcapillary blood flow heterogeneity using magnetic resonance imaging at various sites in human brain tumors.

ecent studies have revealed promising cold field emission (CFE) behavior in composite metal insulator, metal-graphite, and insulator-graphite electron sources, particularly when coatings include aliphatic or aromatic organic rings, such as graphene or benzene. These molecular configurations significantly influence the emitted electron beam, resulting in performance distinct from that observed in previous studies.
