As part of its research, the Group of Electrical Engineering – Paris (GeePs) uses the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for applications such as material modelling in Electrical Engineering, electromagnetic compatibility and electromagnetic non-destructive testing. Some problems involve ... Read More
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been widely recognized as an essential tool that enables the imaging of surface, measuring and localizing many different forces and becoming a standard technique for force spectroscopy at the nanoscale. While conventional AFM is well-developed, recent ... Read More
The present work explores the integration of guided mode resonance (GMR) structures and topological photonics, characterized by the presence of Jackiw-Rebbi (J-R) solution. The developed surface enhanced GMR structure may serve as a platform for refractive index sensing across various ... Read More
The pursuit of artificial magnetism within metamaterials research has long been a focal point. Traditional methods rely on analyzing complex configurations such as arrays of subwavelength particles or split-rings, but unfortunately they fail at subwavelength scales. Revisiting Mie theory ...

Structural colors of photonic crystals demonstrate significant application value in optical sensing and anti-counterfeiting due to their high stability and environmental friendliness. However, current research still lacks systematic investigation into the structure-property relationship ... Read More
The goal of this study is to exploit the phase change in vanadium dioxide (VO₂) for optical sensing. Infrared (IR) sensing is of paramount interest for next-generation Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Phase change materials (PCMs) are expected to enable low-energy consumption sensors, ... Read More
For reheating steel slabs in the steel industry fossil energy like natural gas or oil-based fuels is commonly used. Induction heating is one possible way on the transition towards a carbon free steel industry. To support the industries ambition to change from furnaces with fossil energy ... Read More
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are electromagnetic waves that travel along a metal–dielectric or metal–air interface, practically in the infrared or visible-frequency. The term "surface plasmon polariton" explains that the wave involves both charge motion in the metal ("surface ... Read More
Radiation therapy is a key cancer treatment, used in over 50% of cases, either as a standalone or in combination with surgery and chemotherapy. It involves delivering ionizing radiation to damage cancer cell DNA, preventing their proliferation. Conventional radiotherapy mainly employs X ... Read More
