3 FOM institutes 185 FOM workgroups at universities FOM builds on a strong connectionwith the field 90 Scientific staf 360 support personnel 160 postdocs 460 PhD students Total budget: M€ 90 80% from NWO ~30% physics research in NL 51 FOM programmes15 IPP’s 135 projects ‘Projectruimte’ 3 of former FOM PhD students
FOM Today: three roles • The “physics division” of our national science foundation fund projects, programs • The parent foundation of three physics institutes • National role in setting directions for physics and and for innovation & collaboration with industry
Currently 20 industrial partners in 18 IPP’s total FOM-IPP portfolio (M€) Facts • 18 IPP’s total M€ 60 • FOM invests ca. 4 M€/y • In cash financing: 45% FOM, 55% industrial partners • Broad spectrum of industries • Both specific and generic IPP’s 2013 Recent trend to more and bigger IPP’s:
Two types of IPP’s…. • Increasingly popular specific IPP: FOM-group in a research lab • Computational Science programme with and is yet another new version: ‘talent-driven’
Present collaborations with Russia • ISAN Moscow laser produced plasma EUV sources for 13.5 nm lithography • Fusion research – ‘tokamak’ a Russion invention • Nanotechnology (Dick Koster later)
Innovations for Plasma Diagnostics • With Ioffe institute: Thomson scattering for Asdex Upgrade (Garching) • Holographic transmission grating for Thomson scattering at MAGNUM-PSICollective Thomson scattering system for plasma’s in Magnum-PSI • KATOD produced special Gen III image intensifiersTrue co-development FOM-KATODNear future: Large Echelle gratings
