Description

Synchrotron X-rays are billions of times brighter than those generated in a laboratory. As a result, they can expose material processes that are otherwise invisible to industry researchers. Synchrotrons and free-electron lasers are among the most powerful tools on Earth for illuminating the structure, composition and behaviour of materials. Their insights can hugely accelerate industrial research and development in a wide range of sectors. 

Over four years, within a broader Horizon2020 "CALIPSOplus" project, TamaTA made use of European Commission Horizon 2020 funding to subsidise access to synchrotrons for dozens of small-to-medium sized enterprises (SMEs), with impressive results. TamaTA's work is now continuing within the Horizon 2020 "LEAPS–INNOV" project.

This publication showcases a dozen of the projects done with SME on a wide variety of industrial innovative areas.
