Funded under the Horizon Europe Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) programme, HERMES is four-year project will foster long-term research collaborations by building an international network of academic and industrial partners.

These partners will collaborate, sharing expertise and resources and, above all, training a new generation of researchers.

The HERMES project is also part of EUTINN’s operational research activities (European Research Institute for Nanomaterials and Nanotechnologies), founded within the EUt+ (the European University of Technology) alliance.


The HERMES project is shaping future, by creating a hyper-speed data exchange unit based on graphene. This unit is capable of simultaneously transmitting and receiving data in a completely secure and protected manner at an unimaginable speed.

By exploiting the terahertz (THz) frequency band, virtually no energy is consumed and no heat is produced, making it suitable for implementation in any device in the future.

The innovative devices are based on graphene and other two-dimensional (2D) materials, integrating them into communication systems operating in the terahertz (THz) range to achieve high bandwidth and breakthrough performance.
