Summary
List, a CEA Tech institute, recently set up a startup called Isybot to develop and commercialize the institute’s most powerful command-control and actuator solutions for the collaborative robotics market.
The REACSOL solar reactor developed by Liten, a CEA Tech institute, was successfully used for high-temperature biomass gasification in tests carried out in conjunction with lab CNRS-PROMES. The results of the tests—gasification of wood-based biomass continuously fed into the reactor with concentrated solar energy as the heat source—were encouraging.
The Nanocharacterization platform’s two Titan transmission electron microscopes recently received some major upgrades. They now provide more than just images, delivering detailed information on the chemistry of the materials being analyzed.
INAC and Leti, a CEA Tech institute, have built the first-ever qubit using a CMOS transistor. The transistor was used to code, manipulate, and store quantum information. The advance will pave the way to new developments in quantum computing.
List, a CEA Tech institute, has developed the first-ever industrial-scale reflectometry-based embedded early cable defect detection demonstrator system.
Leti and Liten, both CEA Tech institutes, developed the electronics and algorithms required to measure the internal temperature of a battery cell by estimating electrical impedance. The purpose of the solution is to detect the early signs of thermal runaway in embedded lithium-ion batteries.
Liten, a CEA Tech institute, recently joined forces with France’s energy agency ADEME to assess the benefits combining electricity storage and renewable energy production could bring to micro-grids connected to the main grid on the island of Corsica.
Leti, a CEA Tech institute, and LTM, a laboratory of France’s National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), recently developed a nanocomposite thin-layer film that is both magnetic and insulating, properties that could create new opportunities in high-frequency communications applications
Aquilab, France’s leading provider of medical imaging and radiotherapy equipment quality control and software solutions, signed a research contract with DOSEO to test and validate a new beam control method.
Silicon electrodes are among the frontrunners in the race to replace the graphite electrodes currently used in Lithium batteries. Several imaging and spectroscopy techniques have provided a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that underpin silicon electrode degradation.
