Die Villa Vigoni schreibt im Rahmen einer Vereinbarung mit der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft für das Jahr 2019 erneut ein Veranstaltungsprogramm zwischen Deutschland und Italien zur Förderung der Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften aus.

Kern des Programms sind die Villa Vigoni-Gespräche. Diese gelten Themen, die die aktuellen Debatten zur Kultur, Geschichte und Gesellschaft Europas vertiefen. Im Mittelpunkt steht die intensive Auseinandersetzung im Gespräch, die sich bewusst von den üblichen Konferenzformaten unterscheidet. Die Teilnehmerzahl ist daher begrenzt; ein Kreis von 20 Personen ist die Richtzahl.

Termin: 15.12.2017

The Priority Programme aims at the investigation of photonic properties of materials with deliberately introduced and controlled structural and/or compositional disorder from a fundamental scientific perspective. Recent developments in this emerging research field showed that breaking periodicity opens fabrication routes for novel materials and devices with desired, unusual and unforeseen optical properties.

For the projects it is mandatory to identify design rules for artificial synthesis or fabrication of photonic architectures for the visible and NIR wavelength range with tailored disorder, in combination with one of the following research directions:

• identification and characterisation of biological blueprints showing photonic nano-structures with properties originating from disorder,
• development of theoretical and numerical tools to model structures with tailored disorder,
• development of novel structures with properties that rely on tailored disorder.

The programme focusses on the generation of different types of tailored disorder in materials using a methodical science- and engineering approach in which various natural science and engineering science disciplines cooperate, by using e.g. inspiration from biological systems, results from physics, chemical approaches and validation from modelling, together with materials science and engineering achievements.

The National Institutes of Science and Technology (INCTs) are placed in a strategic position in the Brazilian National System of Science, Technology and Innovation. One of the objectives of the INCT Programme is to promote the interaction with international groups of excellence in the specific area of research. Therefore, the institutes should promote actions that enable international collaboration with excellence groups of leading countries in the respective area, aiming not only at scientific production and the improvement of its quality, but also at the mobility of researchers who are already trained or in process of training.

As announced by the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) in October 2016, 101 INCTs will receive a total of R$ 600 million of funding for a six-year period. Funding is provided by federal and state research funding organisations of Brazil, ministries and other federal or state entities, besides private enterprises. Further 151 institutes were awarded the “INCT seal” for excellent research proposals.

In the past electronic devices have mainly been advanced regarding performance, power consumption and costs. A further interesting property of future electronics is mechanical flexibility, which can come together with advantageous features such as bendability, stretchability, light weight, ultra thinness, transparency, large area integration and easy recyclability. These properties can be achieved by modern TOLAE (thin film organic and large area electronics) technologies.

The FFlexCom programme wants to pave the way for circuits and systems for wireless communications, which are fully integrated in TOLAE technologies.
