The team of the international research project "Research and Innovation Strategy for APP Dedicated to White-Emitting Organic Lighting Systems" (HELIOS) has released the third episode of the podcast "HELIOS: New Light on Science!".
The guest of the new episode is Professor Khrystyna Ivaniuk – Head of the Electronic Engineering Department at APP, where the project's core research activities are conducted. The episode is hosted by Nazariy Andrushchak, Head of the Project Office at APP.
The third episode covers:
- How bio-organic LEDs differ from conventional lightingtechnologies and why this distinction is fundamentally important for a sustainable future;
- Why white-emitting monomolecular OLEDsrepresent a genuine scientific breakthrough in organic electronics;
- The role of heterolayer architecturesin ensuring device efficiency and long-term stability;
- How advanced materials from international partnersare transformed into functional devices in the laboratories of APP;
- The importance of researcher secondments and knowledge exchangeamong partners from Ukraine, Lithuania, the United Kingdom, Latvia, and Luxembourg;
- HELIOS's contribution to the Green Deal 2050 targetsand the broader goal of improving energy efficiency across the European Union;
- Cutting-edge equipmentused to investigate the photophysical properties of organic materials;
- A 5–10 year outlook: where these technologies may realistically appear in everyday life.
The podcast is produced within the HELIOS project, funded by the European Union under the Horizon Europe programme (WIDERA), Grant Agreement No. 101155017.
