CALL 24 - HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-24 - EU-Japan Collaboration on Advanced Materials

Our research center is eager to strengthen EU-Japan collaboration in advanced materials:

• Core Expertise: Plasma processes (PVD, PECVD, ALD), comprehensive characterization (XRD, XPS, SEM), electrochemical testing, process modelling, TEA/LCA.

• Collaboration Interests: Energy (hydrogen, solar), Mobility (lightweight materials, coatings), Electronics (thin-films, functional surfaces).

• What We Offer: State-of-the-art facilities, sustainable/circular materials expertise, complementary research in energy materials, EU project experience.

• Communication & Dissemination: Strong expertise in scientific communication, stakeholder engagement, and multi-channel dissemination strategies to maximize project impact and visibility.

Collaborative Activities:

• Joint research on advanced materials with mutual complementarity

• Knowledge exchange on innovative processing techniques

• Shared access to specialized facilities and expertise

• Publication and dissemination of joint results

We are particularly interested in hosting Japanese researchers or visiting Japanese institutions working on advanced materials for energy, mobility, and electronics applications, fostering long-term collaboration beyond the project duration.
