Novel AlGaN channel transistors for high voltage applications – ACTION
The ACTION project aims to explore and develop a new breed of transistors using an ultra-wide bandgap AlGaN channel. This PRCE project is made up of three academic laboratories, CRHEA, IEMN and the Néel Institute, and the startup EasyGaN as the industrial partner. These AlGaN transistors will make
Optimization of HYbrid energy SyStem with multi-stack PEM fuel cells for heavy duty transportation applications
Le projet HYSySPEM ambitionne l’amélioration des systèmes hybrides piles à combustible PEMFC pour les applications de mobilité de forte puissance (camion, maritime, train, avion) avec une approche systémique. Sur la base d’une revue bibliographique sur les systèmes actuellement intégrés dans les app
Scientific Improvement of Ammonia Combustion – SIAC
To reach the Green Deal objective of Europe in 2050, the need to keep a secure electricity supply, the energy storage will play an central role of the modern electricity smart grid. Hydrogen is considered as a good energy carrier even if actually suffers of the storage and transport cost and some sa
Mechanisms of mucus transport and bronchial obstruction in COPD – BronchoClogDrain
Bronchial mucus is a hydrogel secreted at the surface of the bronchi to protect them from inhaled contaminants. It is continually transported by the collective beat of cilia that cover the bronchial epithelium, and by cough, a violent air flow capable of dragging mucus plugs away. In COPD, expected
Shear Oriented Ionic Self-Assemblies for optimized ion transport – SESAME
SESAME is a basic research project dedicated to the exploration of essential properties of functional soft matter such as the impact of confinement on the ion transport. The objective is to quantify on relevant spatio-temporal scales, the transport of ions confined in nanochannels (of variable size,
Ion Transport across a Liquid-Liquid Interface for metal extraction – ITALLIX
Recycling without polluting is one of the current challenges addressed to chemistry, requesting innovative systems for liquid-liquid extraction. Moreover, an optimal separation in a large-scale continuous process of flowing solutions, rather than static baths, needs to be examined when new chemical
Quantum Control of Bose Einstein Condensates in optical lattices – QuCoBEC
The realization of Quantum Technologies which fully exploit the potential of quantum mechanics remains a major challenge, due to the fragility of quantum states. In this context the QuCoBEC research project aims at demonstrating the key role that quantum control in general and quantum optimal contro
Towards a complete CO2 hydrate slurry-based cooling application – COOLHYD
With a cost equivalent to 20% of global electricity consumption, and highly regulated refrigerants, the refrigeration industry must face several challenges of sustainable development while ensuring its fundamental role for various sectors (food, air conditioning…). The use of phase change material (
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
Maritime Globalization, Network Externalities, and Transport Impacts on CitieS – MAGNETICS
The team wishes to demonstrate that the global maritime network went through several phases of rationalization and optimization since the late 19th century, at the expenses of its ties with urban settlements. Theories proposed by regional scientists explain that such an evolution is beneficial to no
