16. Välinge Innovation AB (SE) / The goal of HOLIWOOD is the development and holistic industrial implementation of thermal treated hard wood. Two product lines are followed: pre assembled load bearing walls for the construction of eco²building (incl. flooring); noise protection barrier system. The research and development activities will focus on gathering basic know-how concerning the wood properties with special attention being paid to static and acoustics and the manufacturing of the modified wood. The usage of thermally treated wood for load bearing construction parts is a technological innovation which will lead to a broad range of application in the industrial building construction area. The integration into the construction of industrial eco2buildings (showing less than 15 kWh/m²a maximum heating load) is a very promising approach for which the need has been expressed by leading architects in this sector.

The overall technological objectives are to functionalise the nanoclusters to enable them to be produced as ordered arrays on surfaces and to demonstrate proof of principle in classical and quantum single-particle data storage.

4. Université Louis Pasteur, I.S.I.S. (FR)
/ The goal of the project is a nano-technology platform based on a 100 nm size grid of addressable molecular building blocks (using three-armed nodes), a novel bottom-up modular approach to place functional groups at defined positions in space with sub-nm precision. An almost complete freedom of choice, for grid assembly as well as for positioning of functional groups, is afforded by a “digital” (in contrast to analogue) code for molecular recognition. The project involves very demanding synthetic and physico-chemical tasks: nonetheless, if successful the rewards are enormous as it can provide a basis for a range of powerful nanotechnological applications. High structural fidelity and convenient assembly rates are achieved using DNA base-pair recognition and stacking into rigid double-helical structures.
