The classical Volmer nucleation model (CNT) has been applied to the crystallization of the SmNiO3 phase from its metastable amorphous phase. The correlation between the model, which predicts crystallization rate as a function of annealing temperature, and the experimental results obtained by XRD validated this CNT approach to solid/solid transformation, and enabled us to achieve some thermodynamic and mechanical properties not previously reported.

Demonstration of the evolution of charge transfer in alkaline-earth metal graphite intercalation compounds by combination of X-Ray Diffraction and Raman spectroscopy experiments, and DFT calculations.

The team "Measurement and Electronic Architecture" publishes a patent with the Hager group proposing a device and a method for detecting malfunctions at the origin of electric arcs.
