II.1.2)Main CPV code73430000 Test and evaluation
II.1.3)Type of contractServices
II.1.4)Short description:
Hybrid multifunctional metamaterials — once available — will have superior functionality as compared to ‘single-function’ metamaterials, combining several functions (e.g. in Optronics and Radio Frequency domains) in one module, which could lead to benefits in terms of size, weight and power — and cost (SWAP-C).
The main objective of this project is to study and analyse the application of hybrid multifunctional metamaterials in defence areas identified.
