It's official – Dr Florian Le Roux, Dr Andreas Mischok, BSc Elena von der Heyden from HCNB have secured 1.1 million euros in funding for the PoLightFilters start-up project from the EXIST-FT funding programme of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK). With the development of a fundamentally novel technology for light filtering that significantly reduces optical noise, the project will set new standards in thin-film optics. The development of thin-film polariton opens up new avenues for use in photonics, sensors, optical imaging, and display technology.
