Description

Topic: The EU priority action lines state the need of advancing White Light-Emitting Diodes (WLED) replacing color filters with Inorganic Phosphors (IP: rare-earth elements and Cd quantum dot) for non-toxic and sustainable Organic Phosphors (OP). ARTIBLED is an European action in Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) inspired by highly efficient Bio-WLEDs based on Fluorescent Proteins (FPs), which are stable over weeks and beyond the state-of-the-art OP-WLEDs. ARTIBLED proposes a radically new approach to prepare low-cost, highly efficient, and stable Bio-WLEDs by developing new biological synthesis tools to produce novel Artificial Fluorescent Proteins (AFPs) in bacteria, which will be achieved by combining tailored natural as well as de novo protein scaffolds with synthetic LED emitters.
Audience: experts/non-experts targeting school/university students and professional as well as any interested listeners
