Despite its many advantages—it is fast, energy efficient, and easy to integrate—conductive-bridging RAM (CBRAM) technology has one weak spot: it can’t store data at very high temperatures. That’s why Leti researchers have teamed up with Altis Semiconductor to develop new materials and new electrolyte and electrode stacking methods. Thanks to these breakthroughs, the research partners […] >>

Thanks to Lymphodivpenia, a biomarker developed by Grenoble-based ImmunID, doctors can offer more targeted treatment to metastatic breast cancer patients suffering from a relapse. This is the main conclusion of research published in Oncoimmunology in July 2012, and confirms the findings of two previous studies. A total of 133 patients have been tracked so far. […] >>

A Leti research team working under the FP7 Nephron project has developed an embedded system for measuring the concentrations of key dialysis solution ions (like sodium, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and urea) before and after the solution passes through an artificial kidney. This measuring system includes a five-electrode electrochemical sensor and control software to test the […] >>

An IMEP-LAHC research team has developed a new type of slow-wave propagation line for circuits operating at millimetric and radio frequencies (3 GHz to 300 GHz). The lines are fabricated in a clean room and made of a metallic nanowire membrane enclosed in an aluminum oxide substrate. They range in thickness between 50 µm and […] >>

Leti’s cyber security research team recently presented the latest findings of its research into two attack mechanisms: lasers and electromagnetic disturbances. This 30-person team of experts has been looking specifically at hardware, now a prime target of cybercrime and, therefore, a cornerstone of enhanced security. The goal is to develop methods for keeping physical equipment—electrical […] >>
