Actualités
- La SFN et la 2FDN félicitent nos trois collègues qui ont été récompensés par des prix lors de la conférence ICNS 2025 à Copenhague en juillet.
Dalila Bounoua (LLB) a reçu le prix Erwin Félix Lewy Bertaut pour sa contribution exceptionnelle dans le domaine du magnétisme des matériaux supraconducteurs à base d’oxyde de cuivre à haute température, en utilisant la diffraction neutronique polarisée de pointe combinée à des méthodes photoniques avancées.
Iurii Kibalin (ILL) a reçu le prix de l’instrumentation neutronique et l’innovation pour son impact notable sur les techniques de diffraction neutronique polarisée et le développement du logiciel CrysPy, qui a transformé la diffraction neutronique polarisée sur poudre magnétique en une méthode accessible à une large communauté scientifique.
Juan Rodriguez-Carvajal (ILL) a reçu le prix Walter Hälg pour ses contributions majeures à la science neutronique grâce au développement de FullProf, largement utilisé pour l’analyse de Rietveld des données de diffraction des poudres dans le cadre d’études cristallographiques et magnétiques, et pour ses efforts continus pour faire progresser le logiciel en étroite collaboration avec sa communauté d’utilisateurs.
- L’ILL a obtenu un engagement ferme pour son fonctionnement jusque fin 2033. Elle a de plus élaboré une stratégie scientifique pour la décennie à venir, afin de tirer parti des améliorations apportées aux installations grâce au programme Endurance et de servir de guide pour l’allocation des ressources, renforçant et démontrant ainsi son rôle majeur dans le paysage européen des neutrons. Le document dans lequel est présentée la stratégie est disponible ici.
- Le nouvel instrument PorTo pour la tomographie neutronique à l’ILL est ouvert à l’appel à propositions de septembre 2025. Il fonctionnera pendant un cycle en 2026.
Prochaines dates limites :
- ILL – appel à propositions : 15 septembre 2025
- 2FDN – appel à propositions : 15 octobre 2025
- ISIS – appel à proposition : 15 octobre 2025
Actualité scientifique du mois
Designing Safer, High-Performance Sodium-Ion Battery Materials with Neutrons
Beyond the specific compound investigated here, the methodology provides a broadly applicable strategy for designing metastable layered oxides with tailored structural features. The insights gained from neutron diffraction on sodium-vacancy distribution and cation disordering may inform the development of other alkali-ion battery systems, enabling electrodes with improved rate capability, durability, and energy density. This work therefore illustrates the central role of advanced neutron techniques in guiding next-generation energy storage materials.
