This activity was created thanks to the support of the Operational Program Integrated Infrastructure 2014-2020 co-financed from the European Regional Development Fund. The strategic goal is to achieve the status of an international scientifically competitive center, especially in the field of materials research using ion beam and plasma technologies, but also in interdisciplinary areas of research and development activities. Industry needs: The SlovakION Center of Excellence will carry out research in the field of preparation of materials that will find usage in various applications, e.g. automotive industry, optics, electrical engineering, photovoltaics, or specific display technologies, production technologies, information and communication technologies, optics, sensors, etc. Ion beam techniques can be considered as a “Swiss Knife” of surface technology as – de¬pen¬¬ding on the ion species, energy and dose – nearly all surface properties (tribologic, optical, electronic, magnetic) of materials can be tailored. Material modification on the nano¬scale as well as the treat¬ment of large areas is likewise possible as ion beam and plasma methods are scalable with re¬spect to materials dimension. Moreover, various well-developed ion beam analysis methods are able to charac¬te¬rize the elemental composition of materials. This delivers an enormous potential to appli¬ca¬tions in various industries. Research is focused on the investigation of the influence of high-energy particles on the mechanisms of degradation in special types of materials (superconducting materials, materials for energy and nuclear reactors with increased resistance to radiation damage) too. It will not be just about innovation of new materials, but the research will also bring automated algorithmic solutions in practice. The results of the project will be applied in economic and social practice by providing solutions that cannot otherwise be verified in economic practice, with an increased ability to solve projects directly for practice. The implementation of projects for practice will create the conditions for a wider involvement of doctoral students as well as students in solving research tasks and thus allow greater use of the scientific potential of young researchers. In terms of material sustainability, the research and development activities of the project will contribute to the development of an excellent workplace and the strengthening of the SlovakION scientific institute. At the same time, the institute is establishing itself in the European Research Area (ERA), which will not only increase the interest of young workers and students to participate in research and development activities, but also it will strengthen the institutes’ position in the ERA. |

The objective of the project consists of three interconnected thematic areas - monitoring, detection and decontamination/disinfection. The main goal of the project is the development of a SMART system based on artificial intelligence and sensors of the new generation, capable of detecting a possible return or outbreaks of the disease of COVID-19 in the population of the Slovak Republic based on the analysis of waste water in almost real time, and to compare this SMART system in terms of sensitivity with those already in use procedures based mainly on RT-PCR analysis. In order to achieve the main goal, sub-goals will also be part of the project. First, the development of several types of new generation bio-microsensors (bio-microsensors for various application areas) aimed at rapid detection of viral RNA in wastewater and biological samples of potentially infected subjects (skin, saliva, sweat and urine). Secondly, the development and testing of innovative degradation and decontamination procedures and technologies, including the development of wastewater treatment technology from point sources (mainly medical facilities but also, for example, nursing homes), technology modifying the drinking water treatment process and the development of coatings, antiviral materials and surfaces on base of selected polymers and their mixtures. |
