Phosphorus and Silicon Heteroles for the Engineering of Molecular Conjugated Materials with Optoelectronic Functions – PSICO
Pi-Conjugated oligomers and polymers based on a planar backbone of sp2-bonded carbon atoms have attracted increasing interest in recent years owing to their potential application for electronic devices. For example, light-emitting diodes (OLED)s for display based on polymer technology are commercial
Matériaux Biomimétiques Hiérarchiques obtenus par Congélation – NACRE
In recent years, the design of biomimetic materials and systems has been the focus of increased attention. The properties, functions, and structures encountered in nature are increasingly appealing for non-biological applications: control of the structure at different levels, adaptation to the envir
Photovoltaic Devices based on Colloidal Nanocrystals as Light Harvesters – PvCoNano
Task 1: «Colloidal lead chalcogenide nanocrystals: synthesis, surface properties, & nanocrystal morphologies«. Objectives: to perform size-tunable synthesis for high quality colloidal nanocrystals; to be able to use ligand exchange methods to modify nanocrystal surfaces Task 2: «Optical and structu
Preclinical development of molecular imaging antibodies targeting the ZnT8 protein for the diagnosis and follow-up of diabetes – SAFE-BETA
Diabetes results from an absolute or relative decline in pancreatic beta cell mass (BCM) leading to insufficient insulin secretion and hyperglycemia. In type 1 diabetes, hyperglycemia occurs when the beta cells are selectively destroyed by an autoimmune process. In type 2 diabetes, metabolic stress
Characterization of DIgestate and evaluation of their agronomic VAlorisation – DIVA
To be used as fertilizer or soil improver, digestate must have specific criteria and composition of dry and organic matter, minerals, nutrients etc ... and be free of unwanted compounds (pathogenic microorganisms, phytotoxic compounds, inert, etc.). They must also be stable over time. The great var
Genetic, metabolic and process optimizations of hydrogen photobioproductino by the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii – Algo-H2
; ; ; ; The aim of the project is to study the hydrogen bioproduction by using photosynthesis. The model species is the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, known for its ability to produce hydrogen thanks to a high activity Fe-Fe hydrogenase. This project has for objective to develop scientif
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
Optimal Transport: Theory and Applications to cosmological Reconstruction and Image processing – OTARIE
Optimal transport is a mathematical subject connecting the fields of optimization, partial differential equations, and dynamical systems in both finite and infinite dimensions. The basic problem of optimal transport is to find a transport plan that connects two given distributions of mass and minimi
Control of molecular processes in contact with an environment – CoMoc
1- Scientific background and objectives The control of molecular processes in contact with an environment, such as the trapping and handling of molecules inside nanocages, opens important prospects. Among many intended applications we can highlight the design of nanomachines, miniaturized classical
Multi Scale Modelling of Particle Transport in Soils – TRANSOL
Particle transport in a granular medium presents specific characteristics due to the possible evolution of this medium by addition or pulling out of particles. Phenomena linked to the transport of solid particles can be found in many engineering fields. Such examples include civil and environmental
