Ion Implantation for Innovative Interface modifications in BAttery and Graphene-enabled Systems - I4BAGS

Project summary

The I4BAGS project aims to develop innovative processing and characterisation solutions for higher performances in microelectronics and battery applications. This implies monitoring of materials and interface properties of graphene-on-SiC Hall effect sensors and vertical rectifiers, and of thin-film solid batteries. Planned processing encompasses low-energy ion implantation tailored for targeted application. Broad frequency range characterisation methods from DC to millimetre waves supported by suitable modelling and software contribute to describe electrical properties of materials, structures, interfaces and devices. Generated data are to be collected within open innovation environment and disseminated throughout European Materials Communities. Expected implementation includes electric transportation, smart metering, power applications and electricity storage solutions. The project is supported by private stakeholders to promote transfer of innovation to European industries.
