Infrastructures are essential in the research and education in natural sciences such as physics and chemistry. The rationale of the Printable Luminescent Materials infrastructure (PRILUMAT) is to replace existing, out-of-the-date pieces of equipment and to get new research started on the 3D printing of tailored luminescent materials. The research will aim to various novel applications in lighting, luminescent solar concentrators, waveguide-based sensing, and switching in optical data transfer. These solutions will support both digitalization and green transition, the ultimate goals of Horizon Europe. Furthermore, the equipment and services enabled by them will be available for the local companies via the existing infrastructure organization of the University of Eastern Finland.
