Do topological insulators—substances that act like insulators on the inside but whose surface contains conducting states—really exist? It would appear so based on experiments conducted on quantum wells just a few nanometers thick, but the findings are difficult to apply to three-dimensional objects. However, now a CNRS-Leti research team has discovered these surprising properties on […] >>

As at all Grenoble Institute of Technology schools, each academic program at Phelma undergoes a periodic review. Last year, the Electrochemistry and Processes for Energy and the Environment program went under the microscope. This year, two additional programs are undergoing a review: Systems and Microsystems for Physics and Biotech in February and Physics and Nanosciences […] >>

Recently, three engineers from Leti began exploring the idea of a start-up to develop and commercialize a technology called Diabolo. The new technology, which Leti has protected via numerous patents, makes it possible to embed electronics like LEDs, RFID tags, and sensors in textile or plastic threads with diameters of around one millimeter. The threads […] >>

Some 40 companies and nearly 800 students are expected at this year’s Grenoble Institute of Technology-Phelma Partners Day on October 18, 2012. The event is being organized by the school’s Corporate Relations and Communications Departments and Phelma Junior Consultants. The morning program will include four talks at Maison MINATEC on: the climate for SMEs in […] >>

Grenoble-based start-up ImmunID is presenting the results of clinical trials on its Lymphodivpenia biomarker at the prestigious American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting being held in Chicago from June 1 to June 5, 2012. This ground-breaking immune system biomarker can be used to maximize the efficacy of chemotherapy treatments while limiting the side […] >>
