SMART 3D ultrafast Laser fabrication of embedded optical functions in chalcogenide materials using self-improving spatio-temporal adaptive control: Applications in integrated spectrometry concepts for IR astrophotonics applications – SMART_LASIR
The objective is to master laser-induced refractive index changes and optical functions in MIR in bulk mid-infrared materials (e.g. chalcogenides) that respond to requirements in integrated spectrometry concepts. This involves: -generating knowledge on laser structural modifications. -tuning index p
Uncertainty quantification for flows and optimisation – UFO
The applications we have in mind in this project deal with transport (aeronautics) and energy. The const constraints for the civilian and military programs need to master the associated risks, from an accurate evaluation of uncertainties at any stage of the project. One can expect a better control o
NanOswimmers for Medicine And Diagnosis – NOMAD
The aim of this proposal is to propose the most efficient and controlled microswimmers with radio controlled therapy function like drug delivery. The swimming performance and colloidal cargo transport function of microswimmers will be evaluated inside smart microfluidic control platform. A final exp
Contactless inspection of tubular inner surfaces – InSITUbes
Tubular structures are used in most industrial sectors. Present in numerous industrial processes for the transport of reagents, their injection or cooling devices, they are found especially in the agro-food, energy, pharmaceutical, chemical, aerospace, transportation or biomedical. For many year
Electrohydrodynamics and Chemical Analysis of Plasma-treated Solutions – HYDROCAPS
The HYDROCAPS project focuses on understanding the fundamental interactions between cold atmospheric plasma jets and liquid solutions, specifically investigating the electrohydrodynamic (EHD) effects and liquid chemistry. Cold plasma technology, increasingly applied in areas such as pollutant degrad
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
Combining low-cost biochar, biogas, and cyanobacteria fertigation technologies with low-input crops for sustainable bioproducts in smart circular farming systems – CombiFarm
The CombiFarm project develops living labs to demonstrate: (1) circular farming systems combining energy, carbon and nutrient recovery systems based on low-cost biochar, biogas, and microalgae fertigation technologies together with (2) sustainable cropping systems based on low-input crops (alfalfa,
Electrostatic doping of 2D semiconductors on Gallium Nitride based heterostructures – 2DonGaN
2DonGaN proposes a new solution to efficiently dope 2D semiconductors (SC) grown on III-V heterostructures (e.g. AlGaN/GaN). Depending on the stack, these heterostructures induce spontaneous and piezoelectric polarizations that generate fixed positive or negative charges at their surface. These char
A prospective analysis of the tensions between higher self-sufficiency and a healthier, more sustainable food system – SOUVNUTRI
How and to what extent the French food production system could ensure healthy and sustainable diets for its population while increasing its capability for self-sufficiency? From a political point of view, there is a growing demand from consumers/citizens for what is considered a better control of
