ERC Advanced Grants 2022 : Delphine Marris-Morini, Laureate for the ELECTROPHOT project

Mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy is a nearly universal way to identify chemical and biological substances and to perform non-invasive diagnostics. More specifically, the 6-15 μm wavelength range can be exploited to detect small traces of environmentally hazardous and toxic substances …

Spin texture and ultrafast conversion of spin current to charge current with a topological insulator

Quantum materials, and in particular topological insulators, offer new prospects for more efficient electronics that consume less energy. These materials, such as the Bi1-xSbx alloy, are insulators in depth but have spin-polarised conduction states on their surface. They enable …
