Incroyables lasers

In this project, students from the Ecole Estienne wanted to stage laser physics through films known to everyone. They then developed a dedicated website. Discover lasers like you’ve never seen them before!

Ecole Estienne

This object was conceived and designed by Alice Moreau during her chasing diploma at the Ecole Boulle. She found inspiration in quantum phenomena to design this chiseled object made of metal and paper, illuminated from inside. The result can be contemplated, or used as a metaphore in science communication about quantum physics, and the quantum behavior of electrons in metals. The drawings on the metal pay tribute to the Friedel oscillations which consist in oscillating changes in the density of electrons in metals that develop around defects.

This work was conducter in the chasing workshop of Ecole Boulle in collaboration with J. Bobroff from “Physics Reimagined” team (University Paris-Sud and CNRS). We want to thanks to Mr. Estrade, the chasing workshop teacher, Arthur Seguin Lucien Morineau, Peter Klein, Frederic Bouquet, and all the students of the workshop.

Catch the invisible ? The framework.

What does « see » mean to at the atomic scale? How do we capture and manipulate phenomena at the Nano scale ? Design students have been asked to work on this question together with physicists and designers. Some have created outreach tools at the frontier between design and popularization of science. Others have conducted a project inspired by science and its methods to create new design objects. Find out about their visions of the infinitesimal and invisible, somewhere between design, science and extension.

This project was developed in collaboration between the students of the workshop “Design and Research” of François Azamboug at the school of design ENSCI-Les Ateliers, with the physicist Julien Bobroff (Physics Autrement, LPS, University Paris -South). It was supported and developed as part of the Descitech ANR research program.
