components. Coupling these microscopes with high-frequency waves ranging from GHz to the visible range has made it possible to exalt certain physical and chemical properties that were previously inaccessible on the scale of a single object.<\/p>\n<p>In the mid-1980s, the advent of the scanning tunnelling microscope and later near-field microscopy revolutionised our understanding of materials at the nanometre scale and ushered in the era of nanotechnology. These microscopes have become essential for probing the physical, chemical and biological properties of nanomaterials and extremely small electronic components.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As part of the \"equipment of excellence\" action of the French \"Investissements d'Avenir\" programme (EQUIPEX), the IEMN has received financial support of \u20ac3.2m for the Equipex Excelsior project, which is essential for making these microscopes multifunctional by coupling them with electromagnetic waves. Four instruments have been acquired and developed: 1) a high-frequency measurement and atomic force microscopy system integrated into a scanning electron microscope, 2) an ultrafast laser excitation system combined with a 4-point tunneling microscope operating in ultra-high vacuum and at variable temperature, 3) a low-temperature atomic force microscope with a magnetic field and 4) a near-field optical microscope operating from the mid-infrared to THz range. These four pieces of equipment have been grouped together in a building specially designed to meet the current instrumental challenges in the field of nanocaracterisation.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its scale, this project has led to the publication of 130 scientific articles and the drafting of 4 patents, and will have had many positive spin-offs in terms of contracts obtained and partnerships forged with numerous European laboratories. Several technology transfers were made to French companies. These companies also benefited from unique know-how, hiring most of the young scientists who contributed to the project from among the thirty or so doctoral and post-doctoral students trained.  At the end of this project, the rate of use by the scientific community outside the IEMN reached 55% and, thanks to the involvement of engineers dedicated to these microscopes, the instruments continue to be available, via the RENATECH network, to scientists from all horizons.<\/p>\n<p><div  class='avia-button-wrap av-rpqvoq-f44e72f79eb4398cb9418a33b702e743-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-3  el_before_av_button  avia-builder-el-first'><a href='mailto:gilles.dambrine@univ-lille.fr'  class='avia-button av-rpqvoq-f44e72f79eb4398cb9418a33b702e743 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-yes-left-icon avia-size-small avia-position-left avia-color-silver'   aria-label=\"Contact: Gilles DAMBRINE\"><span class='avia_button_icon avia_button_icon_left' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'><\/span><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Contact: Gilles DAMBRINE<\/span><\/a><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-rpqvoq-9e507f44debc66c1a2e503b970f8ff71-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_button  avia-builder-el-last'><a href='mailto:bruno.grandidier@isen.iemn.univ-lille1.fr'  class='avia-button av-rpqvoq-9e507f44debc66c1a2e503b970f8ff71 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-yes-left-icon avia-size-small avia-position-left avia-color-silver'   aria-label=\"Contact: Bruno GRANDIDIER\"><span class='avia_button_icon avia_button_icon_left' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'><\/span><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Contact: Bruno GRANDIDIER<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/icone_web2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41912 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/icone_web2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"26\" \/><\/a> \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/excelsior-ncc.iemn.univ-lille1.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/excelsior-ncc.iemn.univ-lille1.fr\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logo_excelsior.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41918\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logo_excelsior.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"251\" height=\"49\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41916 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"786\" height=\"40\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos.jpg 786w, https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos-300x15.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos-768x39.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/logos-705x36.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 786px) 100vw, 786px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[297],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41906","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-newsletter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41906","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41906"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41906\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41906"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41906"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iemn.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41906"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
