Optical polymeric encapsulants for communications optoelectronics

Objective

The goal of OPECO is to develop higher added value optoelectronic encapsulation materials exhibiting multifunctionality. The core objective of OPECO is the development and qualification of novel nanoscalic particle filled polymer encapsulants for optoelectronic components that will immediately open up a new market sector. The emergence of these materials will ensure that Europe advances its position in the general field of nanoscalic particle filled resin encapsulants, with both technological and time advantage over non-European competitors. An encapsulation process for optoelectronics using the OPECO materials will enable a generic range of optoelectronic technologies to be polymer packaged. OPECO materials will allow new higher added value multifunctional packages (e.g combined package and optics) to be realised. These developments will have multisectoral applications ranging from sensing technologies to coatings, to micro-optics to displays, as well as the core optoelectronics communications and optical interconnect applications

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.
