“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

This project aims to explore the generation of optical frequency combs (OFCs) in a surface nanoscale axial photonic microresonator (SNAPR). A SNAPR is an optical device created by modifying the radius of an optical fibre. This modification enables the trapping of light within the device, enhancing its intensity and leading to more pronounced optical effects. […]

This project aims to improve solar energy conversion technology by exploring the self-assembly of cesium lead halide perovskite supercrystals (CsPbX3 SCs). These supercrystals have unique structural and photophysical properties that can be leveraged to make solar cells (and other optoelectronic devices) more efficient and longer-lasting. The project will focus on gaining a fundamental knowledge on […]

This research sheds light on the mysterious force of dark energy, driving the universe’s accelerated expansion, and reveals how cosmic structures evolve. Since hydrogen makes up most of the universe, its natural radiation at radio wavelengths allows us to map large volumes of space and track the distribution of matter. The Hydrogen Intensity and Real-time […]

The aim of this research internship is to contribute to our group’s research program using laser­ cooled gases to explore fundamental phenomena of quantum materials and to use them to realize new quantum sensors. This research program has two main objectives – the use of ultra-cold atomic and molecular gases to (1) realize new quantum […]

Nous cherchons à adapter un modèle afin de modéliser l’initiation et la propagation d’une décharge électrique produite dans l’air avec la présence d’une ou plusieurs gouttelettes d’un liquide. bien que l’étude est fondamentale, elle va nous renseigner sur l’évolution spatio-temporelle de la densité des électrons et du champ électrique qui sont incontournables pour le développement […]

This project aims to develop novel rare-earth metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a type of porous material which by thoughtful design, have tunable properties which can be tailored to target the sustainable separation of valuable and otherwise energy intensive chemical separations such as the separation of hydrocarbons, usually performed by distillation. The project combines the expertise in […]

Magnetic fields are usually created in metal conductors, often organized in a single rotation loop. The field is calculated using the Biot-Savart law while the time-response is limited by inductance. SLAC, has recently been used to minimize inductance by employing the magnetic field around a relativistic electron beam. The field can peak at several Tesla, […]

Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is virus, whose unabated lifecycle results in the formation of cancerous tumorous. Moreover, KSHV infection is particularly prevalent in people living with HIV, and has a disproportionate burden in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite this clear unmet medical need, there are no approved treatments for KSHV. Recent work, conducted in South Africa has […]

This project will graphene thin films using for water purification using solar evaporation. We will utilize an intercalation-assisted technique to prepare surfactant-free graphene dispersions. We will fabricate large-area graphene films and deposit them on filter paper through vacuum filtration, followed by thermal treatment to enhance their stability and optical properties. These films will be examined […]

Les décharges à barrière diélectrique diffuses ont un intérêt en industrie pour faire du traitement de surface par exemple. Cependant, ce régime de décharge dépend de nombreux paramètres (gaz, fréquence d’excitation, tension appliquée…) et peut être compliqué à obtenir. Obtenu dans un premier temps dans les gaz noble, ou encore l’azote, il a été montré […]

Les procédés plasmas assistés par des injections d’aérosols sont commun pour effectuer du dépôt de revêtement fonctionnel, le mode pulsé permettant au plasma de retourner à l’équilibre est par ailleurs préférable au mode continue. Les plasmas d’onde de surface sont reconnus comme étant particulièrement stables et faciles à mettre en place. Cependant, ce mode d’injection […]
