Des lasers et des miroirs pour confiner les molécules d’hydrogène dans l’espace
Une équipe internationale de physiciens impliquant l’Université d’Amsterdam, l’Université de Torún (Pologne) et l’UCLouvain, est parvenue à confiner des molécules d’hydrogène au sein d’un faisceau laser. Cette prouesse expérimentale, qui confirme une prédiction théorique vieille de 50 ans, vient d’être publiée dans la revue Physical Review Letters.

Beyond Common Energy Transfer: Intramolecular Electron Transfer Cascade Controls Triplet Population of a Long-Lived Iron-Anthracene Molecular Dyad
An iron-anthracene dyad was recently used to populate a microsecond-lived nonluminescent (dark) triplet state, but with a surprisingly low triplet population yield.

Bimodal Spin Switch Emerging from Hybridized 2D MoS2/Ferromagnet Interfaces
This study demonstrates a novel integration
of 2D semiconductors with ferromagnets
using pulsed laser deposition, revealing
hybridization-driven spin manipulation.
Vertical spin valves with MoS2
and Ni(111) show exotic bimodal spin
signals and strong deviations from Jullière’s
model. These results highlight the
« 2D spinterfaces » key role in unlocking
2D materials’ potential for advanced
spintronic applications and novel spin
functionalities.
