The MAGNIFIC consortium recently achieved a significant milestone with its project meeting held in December in Milan. This gathering brought together innovative minds from across Europe to explore the latest advancements in Nano-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems (NOEMS) technology. Key Highlights: 🌟 Successful Collaboration: Researchers, engineers, and experts from renowned institutions like IEMN – CNRS, UPV, VTT, ICN2, […]
Researchers from MAGNIFIC (Dr. Coll-Benejam and Dr. Pruneda) have participated in the organization of a “CECAM flagship school” on SIESTA, an atomistic first-principles code that is being used in MAGNIFIC to study electronic, thermal and optical properties of nc-Si. The school was aimed at students and researchers from different disciplines in materials science who use, […]
Nano-opto-electro-mechanics (NOEMS) is an emerging field with unparalleled prospects for the design of efficient and low-power devices for ICT. However, to capitalize NOEMS potential, a flexible and up-scalable technology platform must be established, preferably based on current microelectronic technology. Â MAGNIFIC aims at filling this gap focusing on nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si), only recently used in […]
Few days ago IEMN CNRS (Centre national de la recherche scientifique IEMN) thanks to our coordinator Marco Miniaci successfully hosted the kick-off meeting of the European Project MAGNIFIC which we are proud to be part of! MAGNIFIC Materials for a next-generation (nano-)opto-electro-mechanical systems we aim to advance the field of innovative materials and metamaterial for […]
