the entire, the world's population are faced with problems. 00:00:13.520 --> 00:00:17.720 Such as population issues, medical issues, transportation issues. 00:00:18.740 --> 00:00:22.080 PhoenixD is a interdisciplinary research approach 00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:25.360 and contribute to global success. 00:00:35.460 --> 00:00:39.180 PhoenixD can really do something for these global challenges. 00:00:40.300 --> 00:00:45.880 Where scientists from the different areas of expertise come together to pursue Novel Optics. 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:51.900 How can we take the chemistry that we have learned and the electronics that we have learned and the optics, really the optics. 00:00:52.220 --> 00:00:57.180 Develop the next generation, high precision adaptive optical system. 00:00:58.080 --> 00:01:01.800 Make an optical device that will enable for the technologies. 00:01:02.020 --> 00:01:08.320 Hannover has a unique strength to bring all these aspects together to realize such a goal. 00:01:10.520 --> 00:01:15.480 First Hannover has the breadth of all these disciplines, these ingredients are all there. 00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.020 Scientists from chemistry, 00:01:17.020 --> 00:01:17.840 Phoenix, 00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:18.860 Electric engineering, 00:01:18.860 --> 00:01:19.640 Computer science, 00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:20.660 Mechanical engineering, 00:01:21.160 --> 00:01:21.980 Material science. 00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:25.320 Having these different sciences in one city is very critical. 00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:31.240 We have built up a lot of specialized knowledge and that specialized knowledge can't be transferred in an email. 00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:44.160 The key players of the program are obviously the universities, 00:01:44.220 --> 00:01:48.180 the industrial partners that we have in the area and internationally. 00:01:48.860 --> 00:01:54.420 Well, our cluster of excellence is divided in different research areas. 00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:02.600 You can predict the performance way before you think about producing them. 00:02:02.600 --> 00:02:08.840 That means you can check for different topologies, you can check for different designs and see how it will perform later. 00:02:08.920 --> 00:02:10.340 And then you optimize the design. 00:02:10.880 --> 00:02:16.040 So, things are well designed before we start to think about producing them. 00:02:27.500 --> 00:02:31.400 And then it will be produced by our manufacturing grid 00:02:31.480 --> 00:02:37.180 where all the different manufacturing entities come together to produce the optics. 00:02:37.300 --> 00:02:40.620 Hannover has all these facilities and the scientists there. 00:02:49.480 --> 00:03:00.040 We will follow the production step by step by a very, very sophisticated metrology, and that means we immediately know about 00:03:00.040 --> 00:03:03.980 geometries and indices which are being produced right now. 00:03:04.540 --> 00:03:10.600 And then we feedback these data into the simulation and we will make a real-time simulation, 00:03:11.160 --> 00:03:16.840 so that the next steps of the production will take the deviations of the former steps into account. 00:03:24.580 --> 00:03:27.840 So, thinking about the whole system dynamic is a critical part. 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:32.460 So, having all these different components, these different silos figured out and then going: 00:03:32.460 --> 00:03:33.900 How can these silos work together. 00:03:33.900 --> 00:03:39.040 You cannot just take one thing out of it, you need the whole picture. 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:52.260 We will have a building to bring these young researchers and the key persons involved in PhoenixD project to sit together in the same space. 00:03:52.580 --> 00:04:00.320 So, you go in there to this house of optics with a bunch of people who are going to bring different perspectives and act as different mirrors to yourself. 00:04:02.100 --> 00:04:04.340 You first work with nice people, 00:04:04.480 --> 00:04:08.180 you have the good atmosphere and then you come to tackle these problems together. 00:04:08.180 --> 00:04:09.640 They influence each other. 00:04:09.640 --> 00:04:15.300 This path of communication between each other, the relationship building is critical for success. 00:04:15.320 --> 00:04:18.560 You can't throw things over the wall like we used to do in the past. 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:24.380 The PhoenixD program is an enabling technology which means, 00:04:24.440 --> 00:04:29.640 it is a toolbox for the generations to come and the current generation to solve real problems. 00:04:31.220 --> 00:04:35.640 There are many exciting perspectives for PhoenixD. 00:04:35.820 --> 00:04:44.220 It covers several disciplines, it a truly transdisciplinary research project that has never been created before. 00:04:44.620 --> 00:04:48.540 And that makes nearly anything possible.
