Startup MagIA Diagnostics, which is housed at CIME Nanotech, recently announced that it had raised €1 million from two investors active in medtechs and medical diagnostics. The influx of funds will be used to complete a pre-industrial prototype of the company’s innovative blood analysis system. The system, which leverages developments made by G2ELab and LMGP, […] >>

In January, IoT-type sensors were rolled out for testing at Maison MINATEC. The sensors are measuring things like air quality, the use of mobile room partitions, and the number of visitors. Some of the underlying technologies were developed at Leti and being scaled up for manufacturing by companies like eLichens, JYSE, and Adeunis RF. The […] >>

Researchers from INAC and Leti obtained a mid-infrared laser emission (2.7 microns to 3.2 microns) at 230 K in a germanium-tin (GeSn) alloy nanostructure. The advance paves the way toward photonic integrated laser sources on silicon chips. Currently, laser sources must be added to circuits one by one. The major challenge was creating a tin-rich […] >>

Can artificial intelligence be trusted to drive an autonomous vehicle if all of the computing is done in the cloud? Only if there are absolutely no transmission issues, which would delay the real-time decision-making required to operate these vehicles safely. Leti is investigating embedded artificial intelligence (AI embedded in the integrated circuit) as a solution […] >>

The acoustical waves emitted when a crack propagates in a material can change the crack’s trajectory. The waves create alternating smooth and rough textures on the changed surface of the material. The phenomenon was observed during research conducted by INAC, Leti, and Soitec on SOI wafers, which are made by cleaving silicon. Small cavities, like […] >>
