Three terminal tandem HEterojunction on interdigitated back contacts SIlicon Solar cell – THESIS
This new 3-terminal solar cell technology eliminates the constraint of photocurrent matching for the two cells making up the 2-terminal tandem cell, without the need for a tunnel junction. It also facilitates access to the different contacts of the upper and lower cells without the need for etching
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
Restoring sensitivity to azoles in candidemia – RESTOR
Fungi infect a billion people, 3 million invasively and 1.5 million deadly. Candida species are the most involved in humans against which antifungal drugs have been developed, among which azoles are the most widely used. Candida triggers a resistance to azole by expressing Cdr1, a membrane pump that
Nanostructured Materials for Advanced Na Solid-sTate battERies – Na-MASTER
Limiting global warming requires major discoveries in energy storage technologies, leading to rechargeable batteries. The advanced synthesis and characterization techniques in synergy with modelling have enabled the discovery of materials by design, which we apply here. We will discover nanomaterial
Nanofluidics and Ultrafiltration with Track Etched Graphene-Polymer-Composite Membranes – NU-TEGRAM
The main goals of this proposal are the following: We aim to develop a process for the manufacturing of robust composites consisting of graphene and a polymer film, which will be processed further to produce ultrafiltration (UF) or nanofiltration (NF) membranes with relevance for technical separa-ti
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
Heterostructures for exploring altermagnetic and superconducting spintronics – HEXAS
Altermagnetism describes a symmetry class of compensated magnets in which the spin symmetry group to which they belong allows for alternating spin polarizations both in the crystal space and in the momentum space of the non-relativistic electronic structure. Altermagnets combine merits of ferromagne
Reducing PGM content for efficient PEM-Water-Electrolysis by 3D porous catalyst engineering and bottom-up electrode design. – 3DCatforPEM
Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is the most advanced technology enabling high purity, high pressure, green H2 production from renewable energies. In current PEMWE, both electrodes (anode and cathode catalyst layers) contain large loadings of platinum-group-metal-based catalysts,
Foam-bonding process for granular wastes – BONDINGFOAM
One of the key stages in materials recycling is their crushing into granular material to be re-used by incorporation into the production lines of new objects. In a certain number of cases however, simple shaping using a binder, and a possible post-treatment of the peripheral surfaces, would make it
Design of spintronic ferroelectric architectures for ultra-low power memories, post-CMOS logic and neuromorphic computing – SPINFROST
The tremendous increasing of data collection, analysis, storage and processing has raised concerns towards the optimization and rethinking of the edge-computing paradigm. Indeed, moving the data analysis and processing closer to the location where the data is collected and eventually stored, is the
