  • News
Imagine earplugs that filter out noises, not voices! Startup SafeHear, founded in early 2020 by Grenoble INP-Phelma student Antoine Kuhnast and Grenoble IAE graduate Héléna Jérôme, is developing just such a product. The founders have some heavyweights behind them: They are already working on several R&D projects with STMicroelectronics and Inria. The human voice is […] >>

Innovative thermometer helps keeps power components from overheating

  • News
  • Research
Researchers from CEA-Leti and CEA-Liten built and tested innovative thermal sensors to monitor the temperature of gallium nitride (GaN) HEMT power components. The sensors are fabricated at the same time and on the same substrate as the components and do not require additional process steps (masks). They utilize the Seebeck effect to predict overheating that […] >>

Advance gives new hope for lasers without III-V materials

  • News
  • Research
III-V semiconductor materials are expensive and increasingly rare. Their replacement as the go-to material for lasers is inevitable. CEA-Leti researchers were part of an international team* that recently published a notable advance in Nature Photonics. They developed an optically-pumped IV-IV semiconductor device capable of producing a 2.5 micron laser beam with an ultra-low threshold at […] >>

  • News
  • Research
Researchers from Irig are working on the international LiteBIRD space observation satellite project.  They have been tasked with developing a cold machine that can deliver 2 microwatts at 100 mK—a level of performance never before achieved in space. The cold machine will be used on the two telescopes in the payload. The researchers have opted […] >>
