Stoichiometry, Structure and Strain Engineering in LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 thin films deposited by PI MOCVD – LiLa
Although LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 films have been fabricated by different techniques, many electrical and electro-optical properties reported are not comparable for those of LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 single-crystals. Thus, the degradation of physical properties in thin films can be explained by the difficulty to c
Boundary Layer Late Afternoon and Sunset Turbulence: Analysis of multi-layering – BLLAST_A
The transition from the mixed convective boundary layer to a residual layer overlying a stably-stratified surface layer in late afternoon is still not well understood, and there are no simple scaling laws that fit during this period. Yet this transition to the nocturnal boundary layer plays an impor
Integrative approach of secretion pathways in the mammary epithelial cell: molecular dissection of milk fat adaptability – MilkChEST
The project operates a unique biological material: the goat species in which a natural invalidation of the gene encoding the alphaS1 casein (CSN1S1) revealed a close relationship between mechanisms of biosynthesis and secretion of casein micelles and milk fat globules (MFG). «Defective« animals at t
TRain ENergy Efficiency via Rankine-cycle exhaust Gas heat recoverY – TRENERGY
Up to now, Rankine systems have been mainly used for stationary equipment (power plants, heat recovery from boilers and furnaces, ...), although applications to transport have been studied (for trains, trucks, and more recently, cars) or even implemented, in the case for large ships. For lighter tr
Cold Plasma Sterilization of Medical Devices – PLASSTER
The medical device market is experiencing growth in France and abroad. Several studies have shown that the global market for medical devices (DM) is in continuous progression. The process developed by CRITT-MDTS and INSERM Unit at the University of Reims is a real technical innovation because it is
Intense Laser Optical Optimization for Propagation – ILOOP
Traditionally the intense laser beam at the end of the chain , after compression , has a Gaussian amplitude distribution type, or super- gaussian. This is teh eigenmode of the system and theassociated spatial phase is quasi plane if a deformable mirror is implanted or aberrant if it is not the case
Geometric measure theory and applications – GEOMETRYA
We shall address several problems within the framework of geometric measure theory, from both theoretical and numerical viewpoints. Our project is divided into 5 topics : 1) Geometric measure theory in singular metric spaces 2) Plateau problems 3) Around the Mumford-Shah functional 4) Irrigatio
Wide-scanning, ultra-compact, multi-beam reconfigurable antenna for the next generation of automotive radars for active safety – MM-Scan
The main objective of the MM-Scan project is to propose new low cost reconfigurable antenna architectures for automotive radars dedicated to active safety in W band. These architectures are based on multilayer Printed Circuit Board (PCB) technologies known as SIW (Substrate Integrated Waveguide). Th
The "GLoC" concept for studying key processes of multiphase reactive transport applied to CO2 geological storage – CGSµLab
The CGSµLab project mainly aims to create real Geological Laboratories on a Chip (GLoCs), able to study at small scales the key processes and mechanisms involved in deep CO2 storage. Experiments performed with these GLoCs, in addition to the ones in capillary tubes, will allow to understand and desc
Observation and modelling of giant planet's atmospheres – OMAGE
Our goal is to build a General Circulation Model able to simulate the atmospheric circulation of gas giant planets (in particular Jupiter and Saturn). This work is motivated by the recent wealth of ground-based and space observations of various atmospheric phenomena (in particular using data from th
