We are pioneering a state-of-the-art instrument that enables 3D imaging of single electron spins in individual spin-labeled biomolecules with unparalleled nanometer spatial resolution in volumes as small as (50-nm)³. This innovative capability allows for the direct determination of coordination among spin-labeled molecules, providing unique insights into the structure of biomolecular complexes that existing technologies cannot […]

Ce travail porte sur les électrolytes solides pour batteries à lithium métal, en particulier les électrolytes céramiques, qui offrent une bonne conductivité ionique mais sont difficiles à produire par les méthodes classiques. L’impression 3D est explorée pour simplifier la mise en forme et optimiser les propriétés des électrolytes, permettant de personnaliser les formes et compositions […]

Chemical property predictions using quantum machine learning (QML) lie at the intersection of machine learning, quantum computing, and computational chemistry. QML models often use parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) that abstract gate-level quantum operations but offer limited flexibility in adjustable parameters. To enhance QML model performance and generalizability, incorporating pulse-level operations, which lie below gate-level in […]

Ce projet vise à développer des matériaux composites 100% cellulose pour des applications dans l’emballage électronique biosourcé et biocompostable. L’idée consiste à plastifier le diacétate de cellulose par greffage chimique des chaines de polycaprolactone (PCL) flexibles afin de fabriquer la matrice CA-g-PCL. Les greffons PCL ont l’avantage d’avoir une température de transition vitreuse basse (Tg […]

Gravitational lensing occurs when a massive object, such as a galaxy cluster, bends the fabric of spacetime, turning it into a magnifying glass that focuses the light from a distant object behind it. This phenomenon allows astronomers to observe faint astronomical objects and some of the earliest faraway galaxies or black holes that would otherwise […]

Experimental development of novel sensor hardware for measuring ammonia in marine environments. This includes prototype development, preliminary testing and validation.

Stream discharge, a measurement of the volume of water passing a location along a stream, is an essential variable in many engineering and scientific projects. Discharge can be measured by injecting tracer material (such as common table salt or coloured dyes) into a stream and observing how the material mixes in the stream channel. For […]

In this project, our focus is on advancing and understanding the functionalization of polymers through the post-polymerization process that equips them with activated functional groups. We aim to fine-tune the properties of dynamic, stimuli-responsive polymers without compromising their initial structures. Rheological studies of polymer structure allows us to use DLP technology to prepare architectures and […]

Ce projet de recherche explore les mystères du Coma, un amas de galaxies parmi les plus étudiés de l’univers, en utilisant des données radio de pointe issues du radiotélescope JVLA. L’objectif est de comprendre comment les champs magnétiques cosmiques se forment et comment les particules atteignent des énergies extrêmes dans ces environnements gigantesques. À travers […]

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) used in displays and lighting have advanced display quality but still face issues such as low efficiency and short lifetimes, especially for blue emission. Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) provides an exciting solution for these challenges, yet there are still few examples of efficient blue TADF emitters. Highly efficient, stable […]

The hydroxy group (–OH) is well represented in organic chemistry and is present in 37% of commercial therapeutics, 69% of natural products and numerous biomasses. Despite their ubiquitous nature, the development of methods to directly transform hydroxy groups in a mild and less wasteful way has been seriously neglected. This, therefore, pushes for a method […]

Astrochemistry is the study of chemical reactions and processes that occur in space, helping us understand the dynamic and ever-changing nature of the universe. Scientists mainly rely on remote observations, using light to analyze molecules in space, which reveal important details about the conditions in different cosmic regions. However, experimental studies on chemical reactions in […]
