Les ordinateurs quantiques promettent de réaliser des calculs et des simulations en manipulant l’état quantique de particules. Ainsi, le développement de cette technologie demande de concevoir des systèmes pouvant réaliser ces manipulations. Dans les dernières années, plusieurs modèles ont été proposés pour permettre le déplacement d’états quantiques. D’autres ont aussi été proposés afin de créer […]

The proposed research will help develop wall paneling that can change colour at the push of a button. We will improve the energy efficiency of the paneling by focusing on the ion conducting electrolyte layer that facilitates the colour change. Specifically, we will separate the electrolyte layer from one into three distinct layers. One layer […]

L’abondance naturelle et renouvelée de la lumière solaire fait de sa conversion en électricité l’une des meilleures sources d’énergie propre. Pour exploiter cette énergie verte et la convertir en électricité, le partenariat international préparera des pérovskites hybrides organiques-inorganiques. Cette génération de matériaux devrait avoir des propriétés optoélectroniques améliorées par rapport aux pérovskites courantes. L’objectif du […]

Uranium can generate energy efficiently and sustainably, resulting in its high demand due to increasing global energy demand. As a result, there has been significant interest in the search for materials to sequester uranium ions, U(VI), from seawater. Among the materials adopted, the amidoxime-based polymeric adsorbent has shown great promise, but not without challenges. During […]

Zero Point Cryogenics (ZPC) is an Edmonton-based company that manufactures cryogenic equipment called dilution refrigerators, which are the platform for quantum computers. Unlike our competitors, we are focused on B2B applications, designing dilution refrigerators for quantum computing industry partners that will satisfy their space, size, and delivery requirements. The production of quantum technologies such as […]

L’étudiant effectuera des recherches en laboratoire pour la détection de marqueurs d’inflammation. Il utilisera la résonance plasmonique de surface pour développer des capteurs pour les protéines associées à l’inflammation.

This proposed project is to develop efficient sensing materials and devices that can detect trace amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS), in particular a type of activated oxygen, namely singlet oxygen. Detection of singlet oxygen is an important but very challenging task in biological and pharmaceutical applications. The main difficulty in detecting singlet oxygen is […]

Supramolecular chemists have constructed macrocyclic structures called “hosts” that can selectively encapsulate a small molecule “guest.” Selective recognition is instrumental when trying to take host-guest chemistry to the real world. Drug detection, reversal, and delivery are growing applications for host-guest chemistry. However, things become complicated in biological systems due to the presence of salts that […]

The creation of innovative acrobatics is difficult for coaches due to the interaction of physical principles involved in simultaneous rotations on multiple axis. Numerical simulation can be useful to generate acrobatics without involving supplementary risks for the athletes. However, the accuracy of the simulation is important if we want athletes to try the new techniques […]

Bridges Environmental Solutions Inc. and Deadwood Innovation Inc. have developed a novel and low-cost process for dewatering wood and waste wood materials and extracting a lignin-based solution useful in subsequent wood reforming and laminating processes, which we have helped develop. They use this lignin product to both chemically modify cellulose structures and permanently reform wood […]

This project will employ a modern atmospheric testing instruments mobilized in a research purposed vehicle to make on-site and on-road measurements of air quality parameters with an emphasis on malodourous volatile organic compounds associated with the McLoughlin Point Wastewater Treatment facility and auxiliary services. This research will provide information that will profile emission sources within […]

Access to breast cancer screening is limited in rural populations and developing countries, resulting in increased mortality rates for women. Microwave based breast cancer detection is a safer and less costly approach to early breast cancer detection. Building on our experience in experimental microwave radar-based breast imaging research we are developing and testing a portable […]
