The gold mine of the pencil

Article published in issue 13 of the magazine J'innove en Nord-Pas de Calais With a budget of €1 billion over ten years, the European Graphene project has the potential to revolutionise innovation in a wide range of fields, by exploiting the potential of the nanomaterial whose name it bears. 1 billion over ten years: the figure is [...]

The 2013 Bloch Prize recipient is Professor Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

2nd International Conference on Phononic Crystals/Metamaterials, Phonon Transport & Optomechanics June 2-7, 2013 - Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt The Bloch Prize honours the eminent Swiss physicist wtho among many contributions to wave mechanics and theoretical physics formulated the underlying theory for electron wave propagation in periodic media. His theory, known as Bloch theory, laid the [...]

Une ERC Starting Grant décrochée par un chercheur de l’IEMN !

The project, named UPTEG "Unconventional Principles of ThermoElectric Generation", proposes to test two radical ideas capable of transforming silicon into a thermoelectric material! The conversion of thermal energy into electrical current by the Seebeck effect is not a very efficient process, especially when the available temperature gradient is moderate. What's more, the materials [...]

An IEMN researcher is awarded an ERC Starting Grant !

The project, named UPTEG "Unconventional Principles of ThermoElectric Generation", proposes to test two unorthodox ideas to turn silicon into a thermoelectric material! Indeed, thermal to electric energy conversion via Seebeck effect remains an inefficient process especially for low temperature gradients. In addition, conventional thermoelectric materials are polluting, rare and hardly compatible with microelectronics mainstream technologies... [...]

Visite du Pr. François BOONE de l’Université de Sherbrooke au Canada

This invitation is part of an international research and training partnership between the Universities of Science and Technology of Lille 1 and Sherbrooke in Canada. The laboratories involved are the Centre de Recherches en Nanofabrication et en Nanocaractérisation (CRN2) at the University of Sherbrooke (Canada) and [...].

IEMN involved in the Graphène project, winner of the European "FET Flagship" programme

Selected by the European Commission as one of the flagship projects, on an unprecedented scale, on the technologies of the future and emerging technologies, the Graphène project, funded to the tune of €1 billion over 10 years, involves 15 French laboratories, including the IEMN. The aim of the Graphene project is to develop applications for a material made of a sheet of [...]
