MEGA Heavy metal free emitters for new-generation light sources

Coordinator: KAUNO TECHNOLOGIJOS UNIVERSITETAS (LT)

Organic heavy metal free fluorescent materials show exceptional potential for use in new-generation light sources, such as organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) and organic lasers. It is anticipated that these new materials will enable organic electronic devices to be constructed with higher efficiency, simpler device structures, lower fabrication costs, and reduced environmental impact.Amongst the different types of materials currently being investigated, two show particular promise:• Fluorescence materials exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) for use in OLEDs in displ…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €1.6M toward a total project budget of €1.6M — a funding rate of 99%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2019-01-01 to 2023-12-31.
