Publication: White light interferometry for measuring thin film thickness down to a few nanometers
We have developed a method for measuring the thickness of thin liquid films down to a few nanometres. By combining several analysis strategies adapted to different thickness regimes and an …
Publication: Crystal growth at a liquid–liquid interface upon drop impact
The crystallisation that occurs when a drop is in contact with a cold surface is a particularly challenging phenomenon to capture experimentally and describe theoretically. The situation of a liquid–liquid …
Publication: THICKNESS PROFILES OF GIANT SOAP FILMS
We have published this article in Phys. Rev. Fluids. Production, drainage and stability of foams films, i.e. films in contact with their menisci, are fascinating problems that remain still unsolved. …
Publication: Drop deformation in a planar elongational flow: impact of surfactant dynamics
We published this article in Soft Matter. Drops in extensional flow undergo a deformation, which is primarily fixed by a balance between their surface tension and the viscous stress. This …
Marina Pasquet received the prize Claudine Hermann for a PhD in Condensed Matter
Marina Pasquet completed her thesis under the supervision of Emmanuelle Rio. Her work focused on the mechanisms underlying the stability of soap films, bubbles and foams. She has made remarkable …
Tiago Outerelo-Corvo received the PhD prize of the Société Française de Neutronique
The 2024 Société Française de Neutronique Thesis Award has been granted to Tiago Outerelo Corvo for his remarkable research conducted between the Laboratory of Solid State Physics (LPS) and the …
Suzanne Lafon received the PhD prize for the Graduate School of Physics – Université Paris-Saclay
During her PhD, Suzanne Lafon studied the dynamics of liquids near solid surfaces. She used molecular dynamics to probe the friction Lennard-Jones fluids on a model wall as the liquid …
Frédéric Restagno received the Dédale prize from the Sociéte Française d’Adhésion
During the JADH organized in Obernai from october 16th to october 18th, Frédéric Restagno has been honored with the Dédale Prize by the French Adhesion Society. This award recognizes his …
Hydrodynamic thinning of a coating film induced by a small solid defect: evidence of a time-minimum thickness
During coating processes, dust deposition can lead to an uneven thickness in the resulting film, posing significant problems in industrial processes. Our study explores the effects of solid defects using …
