Tin-oxide-doped indium oxide (ITO) is an excellent material for the transparent electrodes used in smartphone displays, OLED lighting, and other products. However, the material’s scarcity and high cost are problematic. Researchers at Leti are looking for an alternative material, and the early results of their investigations show that tin oxide (SnO2) could be a viable […] >>

Spintec recently came up with a new asynchronous MRAM circuit structure that is more robust in space environments. Generally, the risk of errors induced by ionizing particles is managed by tripling the chains of functional blocks and by using a “majority vote” of the three results of the three identical circuits. Spintec has brought the […] >>

Following the excellent results obtained in 2017 on CMOS 300 mm qubits, INAC and Leti continue to push the envelope in research conducted under a new European project coordinated by the CEA, MOS-QUITO.* The challenge is now to improve the CMOS qubit by using two electrons placed in two opposite corners of a square-profiled nanowire. […] >>

Why is it that the tiny screens on electronic devices like cameras and binoculars are flat when the devices’ lenses are curved? Researchers at Leti have been investigating the issue under the H2020 LOMID project. The goal is to come up with a one-inch-diagonal OLED display with a 45 mm curve radius by June. The […] >>

Researchers at Leti replaced SQUID* sensors with optically-pumped magnetometers used in space applications with the goal of slashing the cost of magnetoencephalography (MEG) machines fivefold by 2022. In research conducted under a European project, the team was able to successfully demonstrate the new magnetometers’ performance. MEG is a neuroimaging technique used to record the magnetic […] >>
