MEchanism for LOw thermal conDuctivitY – MELODY
How low the thermal conductivity of a solid can be ? This question is of fundamental and technological interest. Designing materials with low thermal conductivity has become a crucial technological challenge for thermoelectric devices or thermal barrier applications. The MELODY project aims at solvi
MIcrostructured Hydrogel supported on MEmbrane BIOreacTor for Intensified bioproduCtion – MIMEBIOTIC
Biotechnological processes are a profitable and economically viable alternative for a wide range of industrial productions, provided that the production criteria are maximized (i.e. productivity, yield, final titre). One of the strategies for intensifying bio-production is to obtain very high conc
MIcrowave GRAphene QUantum ELectronics – MIGRAQUEL
Expectations rely on the high mobility, Fermi velocity, current carrying capability and thermal conductivity of graphene. The small and controllable number of conducting channels and the ultrathin geometry of top-gated transistors gives access to a regime where conductance, transconductance and gate
MOF-decorated polymer monolith in sequential microcolumn for Enantioselective Catalysis and in-line Separation in continuous flow – ECaSep
The aim of this project is to address issues encountered in continuous flow enantioselective catalysis related to mass transfer limitations, catalyst immobilization guarantying high catalytic site density while maintaining both good enantioselectivity and high activity as well as the real-time monit
MOdelling of Porous Electrodes for an Optimized MAterial Design – MOMA
This project is dedicated to a bottom-up approach to optimize the design of porous electrode materials devoted to biofuel cells and biosensors. These devices operate on the basis of complex enzymatic electrochemical redox reactions coupled to mass transfer of substrates (glucose and O2) and electron
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
MUltiscale and treFFtz for numerIcal traNsport – MUFFIN
In many applications, one is faced with the problem of solving numerically a set of transport equations, also called kinetic equations in this document. The huge difficulty attached to this task is that it may be computationally exhausting, mainly because of the high dimension and of the multi-scale
MagnetoelectrIc oxideS for SpIn-OrbitroNics – MISSION
Inserting an electric field-driven magnetoelectric material (ME) in spin Hall effect (SHE)-based spin-orbit torque (SOT) architectures will yield a possibility to tune the SOT spin injection in the ME material via the application of a voltage and will allow lowering the charge current necessary for
Magnetoresistance tunnel devices controlled by NaCl ultrathin layers properties – MAGIC CARPET
During the last decade, the magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ) have gathered an increasing interest in nanoscience, as they became one of the key devices of a new field of research : spintronics. These heterostructures are made with two ferromagnetic electrodes (FM), separated by an insulating layer (t
Manipulation of intracellular microbial sensors by the stealth pathogen Coxiella burnetii – ST-Health
Along evolution, intracellular bacterial pathogens have developed elaborated means to counter the immune response of their host in order to establish optimal replicative niches in which they replicate in high numbers. This is achieved by the secretion of bacterial effector proteins that divert the f
