Events in Physics
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, under its Future Photonics Hub and in collaboration with the Physics and Technology of Metadevices and Metasystems Programme Grant and the Silicon Photonics for Future Systems Programme Grant, invites proposals for funding from its future photonics partnership fund. This supports the inclusion of academic partners that bring additional value to EPSRC-funded projects. Applications are invited for funding under the following three funds:
鈥uture Photonics Hub Innovation Fund, with a budget of 拢260,000, for research into high-performance silica optical fibres, light generation and delivery, silicon photonics manufacturing, large-scale manufacture of metamaterials, 2D materials and advanced materials, flexible photonics, nanostructured photonics, or hybrid displays or a combination of these topics;
鈥etadevices and Metasystems Programme Grant Innovation Fund, with budget of 拢40,000, for research focusing on the integration of metamaterials with fibre and quantum technologies;
鈥ilicon Photonics for Future Systems Innovation Fund, with a budget worth 拢50,000, for research into wafer-scale testing of photonic components, multi-layer 3D photonic platforms, novel silicon photonics modulator architectures and coding formats for high capacity transmission, advanced packaging solutions in silicon photonics, and integrated optical sources.
