1. Feasibility study. A short project for the assessment of the key functionality based on existing devices or basic design function. If required it can be supported with simulations. Typical duration is 3 months
2. Proof of concept study. Complete iteration consisting of design, fabrication and characterization of devices to achieve verification of the intended properties. Typical duration is 3 to 6 months
3. Development project. Long-term collaboration in order to develop the technology into maturity. Typical duration is several months to multiple years
