The MEGA consortium partners recently convened in Kaunas to discuss the progress made over the project’s first year and to plan for the second year.
Already the partners have completed close to 35 months of secondments whilst working on the theoretical modelling, synthesis and characterisation of twelve different families of organic molecules for potential use in OLEDs and organic lasers.
Interest in the project is high with collaborations having also been started with theoreticians from outside the MEGA consortium at Malaga University, Brasilia University and Namur University.
Based on their collaborative synthesis work, Kaunas University of Technology and the Belarusian State University have already published a joint paper in the European Polymer Journal entitled “Organocatalytic controlled anionic ring-opening polymerization of carbazole-containing thiiranes”.
Furthermore, the consortium partners have plans to present more of their research results at the International Conference on the Science and Technology of Synthetic Metals (ICMS2020), which will be Chaired by Professor Pete Skabara from consortium partner the University of Glasgow during 26-31 July 2020.
