Lensless imaging could make phage therapy faster

  • MINATEC
  • News
  • Research
Researchers from CEA-Leti, Irig, and LTM recently worked with a team in Lausanne* to develop a lensless device capable of reducing the time it takes to identify active phages on antibiotic-resistant bacteria at least threefold. The large-area image sensor (24×36 mm2) reads the optical signature of areas occupied by bacterial debris. The technique could be […] >>

Quantum: New silicon qubit tester will save years

  • MINATEC
  • News
  • Research
A silicon qubit tester recently acquired by CEA-Leti will substantially speed up quantum computer research. The tester can measure the electrical performance of several hundred qubits processed on a 300 mm wafer at 1.7 K (-271.3 °C). The qubits that make it through these tests will then be tested individually on a cryostat at Institut […] >>

New ultra-low-power shape recognition

  • Industry
  • News
  • Research
A new shape-recognition sensor developed by CEA-Leti and STMicroelectronics is making headlines for its extremely-low power consumption, which, at 10 microwatts, is 1,000 times lower than commercially-available solutions. Five years in the making, the innovation is protected by a handful of patents on its pixel reading mode, data formatting, machine learning algorithms, optimized architecture, and […] >>

Microwire and quantum dot could connect two worlds

  • News
  • Research
An 18 µm conical gallium arsenide microwire with a quantum dot at its base could one day help connect the traditinal and quantum worlds. This novel device was developed by a research consortium* that included scientists from Irig. The advance could pave the way toward the development of ultra-sensitive sensors and quantum information technologies one […] >>
