Fyzikální ústav ČAV, v.v.i. (Institute of Physics, Czech Academy of Sciences) - Coordinator
Public research institute with more than 600 employees, oriented on fundamental & applied research in physics, using advanced preparation technologies, unique characterisation methods and theoretical calculations as well. The research includes high energy physics, condensed systems, solid state, plasma physics, classical and quantum optics. Solid state physics research includes nanoscale phenomena and processes, materials for opto- and magneto-electronics, relation between matter structure and properties in the bulk, surfaces and interfaces.

Centre Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire, Switzerland
CERN is home to the world’s largest particle physics laboratory, where physicists and engineers probe the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature.
The CERN group involved in this project has a 30 years experience in the study of inorganic scintillators and their applications. It is largely known for its expertise in this field.

Institute of Light and Matter, University Lyon1, France
Research activities of the Luminescence team (link is external) at the Institute of Light and Matter are based on engineering process developments and applications in the field of optics, lasers, scintillators and crystal growth. The team is now a leading group in crystal growth fibres and shaped crystals using micro-pulling down (μ-PD) and Czochralski techniques. In addition, the team has lengthy experience in the scintillating material field. It includes property characterization as well as mechanism analysis. The laboratory won in 2007 the national INPI prize for company creation and research valorisation. We have already participated in different national and international projects and collaborated with many different companies from France and abroad.

University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy
 The University of Milano-Bicocca includes 4 Schools and 16 Departments. The project will be carried on at the Department of Materials Science – DMS. DMS gets together 40 permanent researchers, and approximately 100 post-docs and PhD students. It coordinates three courses: Materials Sciences (Degree and Master), Chemistry (Degree and Master) and a Degree in Optical Technology (more than 500 students). It provides the PhD course in Materials Science and Nanotechnology, and it is the headquarter of the School of Doctorate of Sciences.
