+SMALL +STRUCTURED +EFFICIENT In recent years, phosphor-free III-nitride nanowire light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been intensively studied as a promising candidate for future solid-state lighting and full-color display applications. Compared with the conventional...
+PRECISE +EFFECTIVE Quantum dots are semiconducting particles used in ex-vivo fluorescence biomedical imaging. To consider their in-vivo use, it is necessary to make them more specific (i.e. control their binding to biological ligands) and improve their colloidal...
+EFFECTIVE +PRECISE A thermoreversible compound is sensitive to temperature. A potential application of this property is the localized released of active ingredients to inflammation sites in the body. Coming up with an application of this nature presents a sizeable...
+EFFICIENT +EFFECTIVE Prof. Denis Leclerc has identified particles produced from the nucleocapsid protein of the papaya mosaic virus (PapMV), which have surprising immunological properties. These particles can, among other things, enhance the immune response of...
+PRECISE +SMALL +EFFICIENT Structure-property relationships are key to understanding physico-chemical phenomena. On a nanometric scale, one of the challenges relates to the accuracy of the analyses required to determine the exact structure. Prof. Martel’s team, in...
