Photonic-chip based ultralow-noise microwaves

Objective

Microwave oscillators are essential for a variety of technologies, including mobile communications, radar, navigation, and data networks. However, current compact solutions, such as voltage-controlled oscillators, face fundamental noise limits. Although laboratory-scale optical approaches can achieve significantly improved performance, they often require bulky, power-hungry, and costly systems. pureWAVE aims to address this issue by implementing low-noise photonic oscillators on a scalable chip platform. If successful, pureWAVE will deliver chip-scale oscillators with phase noise two to three orders of magnitude lower than current solutions, enabling disruptive advances in mobility, communications, and data infrastructure.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

HORIZON-ERC-POC - HORIZON ERC Proof of Concept Grants

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
