The DAMP* project, led by two research scientists from IMEP-LaHC, was accepted by incubator Linksium in December, and will receive €180,000 in support. The purpose of the project is to develop a probe built on commercially-available sensors to characterize the humidity, salinity, and conductivity of liquid and solid environments. The probe will have to be […] >>

Startup Scintil Photonics has set the ambitious goal of developing competitively-priced optical interconnects capable of achieving transmission speeds of 800 Gbit/s. The company, a Leti spinoff currently in incubation, won the Bpifrance i-lab competition in 2018. It was founded by Leti research scientist Sylvie Menezo and former Tronics CEO Pascal Langlois. Scintil Photonics is leveraging […] >>

The Centre national de compétences en Nanosciences granted the C’Nano 2018 dissertation award in the Completed Research category to Sarah Delshadi in December. Delshadi completed her dissertation on fast immunological diagnostic testing combining superparamagnetic nanoparticles and structured micromagnets at IAB and G2ELab. Earlier research by CNRS and Grenoble Institute of Technology (G2ELab, Institut Néel, and […] >>

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, […] >>

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 […] >>
