Interactions emerging at the interface of an ultrathin magnetic layer, such as the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DMI) antisymmetric exchange interaction, can lead to the appearance of particular spin orientations within the layer, …
The configuration and geometry of chemical reactors determine reliability when assessing the performance of photocatalytic materials. Researchers have developed a novel automated photoreactor for H2 production that substantially improves the …
Two young researchers from the STEM group, Nadezda Varkentina (former postdoc) and Yves Auad (Ph.D) have received the 2022 Outstanding Paper Award from the European Microscopy Society in the Instrumentation …
Rectification of an optical signal using an all-metallic electronic device is of fundamental and technological importance for nano-optics. Researchers probed experimentally the microscopic mechanism at the origin of the optical …
A team of researchers from the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (LPS) has demonstrated that in all-metallic Josephson field effect transistors, the statistics of electron flow due to the gate …
Determining the intrinsic lifetime of states inside the superconducting gap generated by magnetic impurities (YSR states) is crucial for a better understanding of their properties and applications in quantum engineering. …
The coincidences in time between the energy loss of an electron traversing a material and a subsequent light emission allow the measurement of the relative quantum efficiency of the material. …
To develop applications of new materials, it is important to know the energy of electrons as a function not only of their momentum but also for all possible orientations of …
This axis deals with “nanoscience” considered in a broad sense. Phenomena are studied from the point of view of fundamental properties when the dimensions of an object become as small …
