CNRS Île-de-France has published an article featuring research led by Marianne Impéror, CNRS research director at the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (LPS) in Orsay. This pioneering work explores the …
Cuprates, copper-based oxides, are renowned for their high-temperature superconducting properties. Doping—the process of introducing foreign atoms (dopants) into the material’s structure—modulates their electronic properties and promotes superconductivity by altering the …
Alexandra Mougin and Sylvain Assimomitis are the new gender equality representatives at LPS. Their mission? Assist the lab’s management and promote a more inclusive environment in physics. 🔹 Why does …
On March 6, 2025, the Solid State Physics Laboratory (LPS) unveiled “Strate Mésoindus,” a monumental sculpture by Jean Suzanne, installed on the laboratory’s forecourt. This steel work, inspired by geological …
March 8 is a reminder of an important fact: worldwide, only 1 in 3 researchers is a woman. Despite progress, inequalities persist: less than 2 out of 5 STEM (science, …
We are delighted to welcome Masters level students (ArTeQ) to discover superconducting quantum qubits in a brand new hands-on assignment. This lab, supported by Quantum Saclay (QuanTEdu-France program), was developed …
Les nanocristaux se sont massivement imposés comme une solution polyvalente pour la fabrication d’une nouvelle génération de dispositifs opto-électroniques comme les LEDs ou les cellules photovoltaïques. Des travaux récents suggèrent …
Researchers have observed the deformation and rupture of an electronic modulation present in certain crystals when subjected to an electric current, using an intense and coherent X-ray beam generated by …
Researchers from the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (Université Paris-Saclay/CNRS) and the Laboratoire Lumière, Matière et Interface (Université Paris-Saclay/ENS Paris-Saclay/CNRS/Centrale Supélec) have developed an experimental method to visualize in real …
Researchers at the Solid State Physics Laboratory (CNRS/Université Paris-Saclay) and their collaborators have developed a new light source: two-dimensional quantum dots created in monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides. The field …
