We are very pleased to welcome Chunxiao Liu to the LPS team as a CNRS researcher, joining the theory group as a permanent member. Originally from China, he completed his …
An international team led by CNRS researchers, including members of the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (CNRS/Université Paris-Saclay), has revealed a remarkable phenomenon: the creation and disappearance of an electron …
A Franco-British research team has developed a luminous organic molecule capable of revealing its quantum spin state by a simple change of colour, a result that opens up a new …
In a long-term study carried out on the International Space Station (ISS), researchers were able to study precisely the physico-chemical factors influencing the long-term stability of foams by avoiding gravity-induced …
The Solid State Physics Laboratory (LPS) (Paris-Saclay University and CNRS) was pleased to welcome participants of the 2025 International Physics Olympiad, held this year in Paris. #IPhO2025 Delegations from Cuba, …
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 …
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 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 …
CNRS scientists have studied the evolution of the shape of gold nano-tetrapods and have revealed a two-stage kinetics: the four arms – initially pointed – quickly become blunt, before beginning …
