Research Objective: ICT 3 – 2014: TOLAE

1. Research Objective: ICT 3 – 2014: TOLAE • TOLAE: An emerging technology, the basis for advanced products in large area electronics that are thin, light weight, flexible and/or stretchable • Suitable for large market sectors such as automotive, health, ... • The Specific Challenge • Address the main technology barriers of TOLAE: • Lack of more efficient and stable materials • Lack of more complex TOLAE circuitry and functionalities • Increase the performance of components and the integration level • Improve route to manufacturability (reproducibility, yield) • Further develop the TOLAE value chain– become more application-driven • Pay attention to recyclability issues • What are you looking for?

2. Research Objective: ICT 3 – 2014: TOLAE What are you looking for? ICT3.a Research & Innovation TOLAE technologies and manufacturing processes Focus is on: Conformable / flexible / stretchable substrates Advanced materials and technologies Scalable manufacturing processes • Projects must be driven by user requirements with strong industrial and user commitment • ICT3.bInnovation Demonstrate innovative products enabled by TOLAE • Aim is onbuilding a dedicated innovation value chain, target medium- to high-volume markets • Should be driven by concrete business cases and take into account user needs • ICT3.cTechnology Take-up and Innovation Support • Access services to industry  targetingfirst users and early adopters, in particular SMEsfor the wider adoption and deployment of TOLAE technologies in innovative products • ICT3.dPre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) Innovation through PCP • Target is public authorities for procuring textile solutions for health care applications 17 M€ 15.5 M€ 3M€ 2.5 M€

3. Research Objective: ICT 29 – 2014: Materials and systems for OLED lighting What are you looking for? Joint LEIT ICT and NMP action 18 M€ • ICT29 R&I Actions: Focus is on: Materials, process & device technology for OLED lighting. Aim is to: • Realise OLED devices over larger surfaces, with higher brightness, larger uniformity and longer lifetimes. • A demonstrator should be provided at the end of every project. • Proposals should involve material suppliers, OLED manufacturers or suppliers and OLED system integrators.

4. Research Objective: ICT 3 & ICT29 – 2014 2. Is this new or has it been called before? Organic and Large Area Electronics have been called in call 7 (objective 3.6) and call 10 (objective 3.3). Manufacturing was part of the FoF call (objective 7.2). New is Pre-Commercial Procurement (3.d). 3. Current project portfolio Relevant projects are SUNFLOWER, X10D (IP projects on OPV), FLEXIBILITY, Flex-O-Fab, ROTROT and TREASORES (on manufacturing) and COLAE (CSA project with OLAE competence centres). • 4. What do you NOT want? • Proposals on OLED are encouraged to submit under ICT26 -2014 (open system architectures for SSL), ICT28-2015 (pilot line for OLEDs) and ICT29 -2014 (joint LEIT ICT and NMP action on novel materials and systems for OLED lighting) specifically targeted to OLED. • Prototype development and demonstration under ICT 3.b is in smart packaging, advertisement or sensing. Lighting and healthcare applications are not included.

5. Research Objectives: ICT 3 & ICT29 – 2014 5. Who are the leading players? 6. Is there a key group of actors or ETP driving this? Key groups of actors are the technology platform Photonics21, Photonics Public Private Partnership and the OE-A association. Leading players are members of these groups. There are several competence centres on TOLAE in Europe and they are usually a Research and Technology Organizations. 7. Are there any additional / background documents? Strategic Research Agenda of Photonics21, OE-A roadmap
