Nanoelectronic research enhanced with Open Access H2020 project » Horizon 2020 Projects

"Horizon 2020 is backing a €4.7m project that will make the unique research infrastructure of three of Europe’s premier research centres available to the nanoelectronics modelling-and-characterisation research community. The nanoelectronics research centres of the Tyndall National Institute in Ireland, CEA-Leti in France and imec in Belgium have entered into a collaborative Open Access project entitled ‘Access to European Nanoelectronics Network’, or ASCENT, to mobilise European research capabilities. The project will share best scientific and technological practices, form a knowledge-innovation hub and train new researchers in advanced methodologies. The project will also establish a leading research network of advanced technology designers, modellers and manufacturers in Europe, helping to strengthen the continent’s knowledge in the integral area of nanoelectronics research. The three partners will provide researchers access to advanced device data, test chips and characterisation equipment. This access programme will enable the research community to explore exciting new developments in industry and meet the challenges created in an ever-evolving and demanding digital world ..."
