Silicon nanowires covered with a diamond film deposited by microwave CVD and an electroactive (PEDOT) polymer layer were used to create innovative electrodes under the EU-backed NEST research project. Two teams of researchers from INAC participating in this project achieved substantial improvements in 3D micro-supercapacitor performance. The results were confirmed on a demonstrator system. The […] >>

Researchers from Leti and G2Elab are working to develop a new kind of medical imaging technology, “fast field-cycling MRI” (FFC-MRI). The research is being conducted under the four-year EU IDentIFY project, which kicked off in 2016. The new MRI is expected to be both more accurate and affordable than current technologies. The concept was developed […] >>

The main obstacle to developing tomorrow’s 100% driverless vehicles is the huge processing power required. Today, you would have to virtually fill the vehicles with powerful computers to run them! For the past three years, researchers at Leti have been working on a breakthrough technology to replace today’s algorithms, originally developed for robotics applications, with […] >>

Inac has started publishing video content on its website and on YouTube. The latest additions are the profiles of four basic-science researchers who boldly volunteered to be featured. The short—under four minute—videos are simple and straightforward, showing the people behind the science happening in Inac labs. Inac has also published a video presenting the institute. […] >>

The 450 sq. m Maison MINATEC extension—now open for business—brings the event facility’s total surface area to 1,350 sq. m. and boosts its capacity from 600 to 1,200 people. In 2015 the facility hosted 120 events and received nearly 40,000 visitors, figures that are expected to rise in the short term. With modular event spaces […] >>
