Control of pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms in food products by a rational use of the oxydoreduction potential – Food-Redox
Store the food while preserving their properties, microbiological safety, and with a technology with a low environmental impact is a permanent challenge in food processing. The objective is to use a new parameter, the redox potential (Eh) that can be modulated in processes to increase the lifetime o
MULTI spectral SOLar cells based on SIlicon – MULTISOLSI
The MULTISOLSI project consists in studying, designing and optimizing the electrical junction between two relaxed lattice mismatched materials with zero or negligible strain relaxation defects, namely Ga1-xInxAs and Si in the first instance, in order to optimize a final GaAs/Si/ Ga0.24In0.76As tripl
Water Oil Laden Foam – WOLF
Our understanding of oil and aqueous foam interactions is only partial and so far, it is limited to foam stability using thermodynamic concepts such as entering coefficients and disjunction pressure. Yet, less is known on the ingestion mechanism of oil by the foam, on the transport and dispersion
Time-resolved spectroelectrochemistry on 3D-mesoporous electrodes – 3D-BIOELEC
The main objective of this project concerns the development of an innovative sub-millisecond real-time spectroelectrochemical technique allowing characterization of electrodes functionalized by biomolecules. The challenge consists in the spectroscopic detection of a low amount of biomolecules with s
Geometry and optimal measure transportation – GMT
The Ricci curvature plays an important role in Geometry and has lately been linked with the Optimal transportation theory. First by G.~Perelman's proof of the Poincaré conjecture using the Ricci-flow and citing Bakry and Emery's work on ``Diffusions hypercontractives''. Secondly by a serie of pa
All IP Networks for the FutuRe Internet of Smart Ob- jects – IRIS
Smart Objects and the Internet of Things provide unparalleled means to connect the physical world with the digital world, enabling important applications such as Smart Infrastructures or Smart Cities. But existing systems are typically proprietary and tailored to one specific application, which s
Quantum Experiments with Superconducting Circuits – QuExSuperC
Superconducting quantum circuits with Josephson junctions have shown in the last decade very rich and successful quantum experiments. They clearly appeared as the most promising solid state scalable quantum system for quantum information processor. These superconducting circuits behave as artificial
Laboratory convection experiments with internal, non-contact, microwave generated heating, applied to Earth’s mantle dynamics – TERRA-MWH
The first objective of this project is to develop a novel, specific MW generator type, firmware controlled from an embedded system, and to use it for mixed convection experiments. In convection experiments, a certain number of parameters (viscosity, density) of the experimental fluids need to be mod
Real-time dynamics in strongly correlated mesoscopic systems – DYMESYS
The initial objectives of this project are firstly to build numerical theoretical tools to describe the non-equilibrium transport through a quantum dot in Kondo regime and more generally correlated mesoscopic nanostructure. Secondly, we aim at characterizing experimentally by transport probes the
Localization of the Atomic Kicked Rotor: Interplay between Disorder and Interaction – LAKRIDI
This projects aims at studying transport and localization properties in complex quantum systems. More precisely, we want to study how the interplay of disorder and interaction affects the transport properties of waves. We especially want to study how interactions between particles affect Anderson lo
