Summary/Abstract: 
RADIANT (Chiral Light Emitting Diodes based in Photonic Architectures) pursues the production of high-performing and cost-efficient chiral LEDs (light-emitting diodes) exploiting the optical properties of scalable chiral metasurfaces and operating from the visible to the near-infrared. LEDs are a disruptive energy efficient light-source technology whose market is projected to reach $192.68 billion by 2030. [1] Targeting the Responsible Electronic Challenge, we will incorporate chirality into three emerging LED technologies, organic (OLED), perovskite based (PeLED) and quantum dot-based (QdotLED) LEDs. The new technologies will show excellent performance while featuring the additional function of chirality, gaining a competitive edge over more established solid-state technologies. At the core of the project lies a novel, scalable and low carbon footprint imprinting process that enables seamless integration of photonic nanostructures across different LED technologies in a broad spectral range. This ambitious project will be possible thanks to a multidisciplinary team of experts in photonics, chemistry, and device fabrication (OLEDs, Perovskites, and quantum dots). RADIANT has secured interest and active participation of OSRAM, a global leader in technological solutions for light technologies with annual revenues of €4.8 billion, indicating the industrial potential of the project.
