Om arbetsgivaren
Linking fundamental research to applications within our fields of expertise. Multidisciplinary research unit with more than 300 members at the junction of physics, chemistry and microelectronics, IM2NP masters a large spectrum of competencies that allows relying numerous fundamental aspects to applications in the field of advanced materials, of integrated electronics and nanosciences.
Main key-objectives:
Linking fundamental research to applications within our fields of expertise.
Five main directions:
. Revealing nanostructures: Build, visualize, probe
. Elaboration and modelling of functional nanomaterials and nano-devices
. Transformation and growth of materials at different scales (from nm to mm)
. Specific environments: detection, characterisation, signal processing and reliability
. From the emerging device to eco-energetics systems.
Key application sectors: energies (photovoltaic, thermoelectricity, nuclear fission/fusion), safety & defence (high level reliability, signal, stealth), health (E-health), transport (aeronautical, spatial), communication (IOT, RFID), environment (detection, catalysis)
