Happy Birthday
We had a small surprise celebration on Monday at ISIS for the 65th birthday of Thomas Ebbesen but as the real date is today, happy birthday Thomas !
Welcome to Samuel !
To start the new year, we have the pleasure to welcome Dr Samuel Albert as a new postdoctoral researcher. Samuel did his phD about glass transition in CEA Saclay and defended in 2016. Then he did a first postdoc in ENS Lyon about Casimir forces. Welcome to him !
Happy New Year 2019 !
We hope that all our readers, friends and collaborators around the world had a merry Christmas time and we wish them all a happy and sucessfull new year 2019 !
Welcome back to Yantao !
Dr Yantao Pang, assistant professor, in Shandong Jianzhu University, in Jinan (China) arrived in Strasbourg two days ago. He already spent one year in our lab in 2005 then came back for a shorter stay in 2012. This time, he is back again for one year and will be located in office 109. Welcome back to him !
Winter publication
The collaboration with IPCMS on TMDs continues to be fruitful and after the recipe for a chiraliton, here is the one for a sandwich of 2D materials, also called van der Waals heterostructure, preserving valley polarization and coherence. No need for an oven, everything is done at room temperature ! More details in the publication, that will appear asap in ACS Photonics.
PhD defense of Oussama Sentissi
We are pleased to announce the PhD defense of Oussama Sentissi on Friday, December 7. His work, entitled Étude du mouvement Brownien sous champ de force externe et diffusion anormales (Study of brownian motion under an external force field and anomalous diffusion), has been performed under the supervision of Dr. Genet. The defense will take place in the Salle de Conférence of ISIS, at 2pm.
A pot de thèse will follow at the 6th floor of ISIS (Espace Vasconi).
James is visiting us
We have the pleasure to welcome James Hutchison for a few days in the lab, till November 29. He will stay in room 107 during his visit. His 18 months secondment in Melbourne turned into a 4 years “Future fellow” position so he will fly back to Australia soon…
New page alumni
The idea was born around a beer after a conference in Paris a few months ago : we decided to create an Alumni list with all former phD’s, postdoctoral researchers and associate researchers who worked with Thomas Ebbesen. A first (imperfect) list was written on the corner of the table… and a few months later, we are happy to announce the creation of the Alumni page, that we finally restricted to former collaborations within the Laboratoire des Nanostructures only.
Of course, any new information and corrections are welcome !
Welcome to Yaowei…and Jérôme again !
Since a few days, we are welcoming in the team a new phD student from China, Yaowei Hu, who studied physics in Changchun University of Science and Technology.
Moreover, Jérôme Gautier is staying with us after his master training and started a phD on strong-coupling with chiral structures and materials.
Welcome to both of them !
