Future optics and electronics : Building a device (electronic, magnetic, photonic, sensor ...) at the atomic scale (nanometer) is the final step in miniaturization. In the laboratory nanofabrication techniques allow to carry out individual structures of a few atoms or molecules. Beyond the reduction in size and the resulting increase in integration density, new properties appears at this scale, often of quantum origin, which can be used. ...

Durability and aging of materials
Understanding the mechanisms of materials aging in their operating environment, so as to predict the lifetime of the components or to optimize it, is an important issue of low carbon energies, whether it is nuclear energy (fusion , fission) or new energy technologies. IRAMIS has a solid experience in the field of nuclear materials aging. ...
Statistical physics and complex systems
Many situations encountered in daily life are what is called in physics "complex systems": inherently scalable materials such as glasses and polymers, granular materials, chaotic or turbulent fluids, crack propagation in disordered materials and dynamic fracture, but also interacting animals or human in the society ... All these systems have complex collective effects emerging from individual single rules. ...
