Photodetectors and modulAtors for free-space optical communications and coherent LIDAR in the Mid InfraRed – PALMIR
The objective of the PALMIR project is to develop and fabricate mid-infrared detectors and modulators operating around 4.8 µm and to implement them in a multifunction transceiver platform to realize a simultaneous telemetry and free-space optical communications demonstration. Several technological b
Photodesorption induced by UV, X-rays and Electrons on Surfaces – PIXyES
The objectives of the PIXyES project consist in providing new results, both experimental and theoretical, concerning photo-induced processes in molecular solids that can have a significant impact on the physics and chemistry of the interstellar medium. The project focuses on the phenomena of photo-i
Photochromic Inorganic Fluorides – PRIDE
The PRIDE project aims to design, synthesize and shape bistable photochromic fluorides and oxides whose optical properties (absorption or emission) can be reversibly controlled when exposed to selective photon irradiation. PRIDE is taking place against a backdrop of considerable interest as our soci
PhotobiofilmExplorer – PhotobiofilmExplorer
The first objective of this project is to validate our hypothesis of resistance associated with the production of allelopathic substances. The second is to characterise and produce these new bio-compounds that can be used for human and animal health. Our main targets are antibiotics, but other activ
Photo-induced processes in multi-component surface-supported metal-organic frameworks – PhotoMOF
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials resulting from an ordered assembly of inorganic subunits and organic ligands. Extensively developed in fields such as storage, gas separation, or catalysis, the high diversity (composition, topology, porosity) of these hybrid structure
Phosphorus sequestration: contribution of magnetotactic bacteria in oxic–anoxic transition zones – PHOSTORE
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), present in natural environments, are able to react to the earth's magnetic field. A magnet is therefore a simple and efficient strategy used for cell concentration from environmental samples. In addition, MTB have the capacity, in certain environmental conditions which
Phonological Networks in Language Production and Comprehension. – PhoNet
A range of cutting-edge neuroscience techniques will be used to map the cortical areas and their activation time course in speech production and comprehension tasks along with their functional contributions to the processes required for these tasks. A main focus will be on the relative contributions
Phonological Constraints on Language Development in Individuals with Williams Syndrome – SOUNDS
Williams syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disease characterized by mild to moderate intellectual disability (ID), a heterogeneous cognitive profile, an atypical social behavior, and an unusual acoustic hypersensitivity to noise. The very specific profile of people with WS is probably at least p
Phase-space GRANULation in fusion plasmas – GRANUL
Thermonuclear fusion is an ideal solution to the energy crisis: a clean, safe, global, abundant and sustainable source of energy. A promising approach is to heat an ionized gas (a plasma) of hydrogen isotopes at 150 million degrees, and confine it in a donut-shaped magnetic field. After decades of p
PhasE PolyPhenism Emergence and associated Risks – PEPPER
Phase polyphenism has been hypothesized as an evolutionary response to cannibalism avoidance. Group movement was also proposed as an adaptation to predation risk. Alternatively, we propose that phase polyphenism could emerge as a response to variable conditions of resource, mainly vegetation. The
