Nanophotonic integrated devices for emerging high-impact applications (NIRVANA)

The take-up of nanophotonic integrated technologies is boosting a wide range of applications of high societal and economical relevance. A European and worldwide ecosystem is growing to support the increasing needs, going beyond niche markets. To keep pace with such a rapidly evolving field, the NIRVANA project aims to expand and consolidate a silicon-based photonic integrated platform, unique in Spain, by integrating novel material technologies and developing new devices that will be validated for emerging high-impact fields from artificial intelligence and on-chip spectroscopy to solid state sensors for the health, agrifood, and environmental sectors.
