Research conducted at IMS Bordeaux as part of the European Rempower project, previously presented at European Microwave Week 2025 (EuMW 2025, https://www.rempower.eu/rempower-young-researchers-at-european-microwave-week-2025/ ), was further disseminated during the DEFIE Scientific Days on Low-Environmental-Impact Electronic Devices, held from December 1 to 3, 2026, at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse, France.
The DEFIE initiative is a highly interdisciplinary national coordinating and support action in the field of sustainable electronics (https://defie-cnrs.fr/index.php/presentation-gdr-defie/), bringing together researchers from both public and private institutions. It also maintains strong interactions with industry to foster innovative solutions.
During the event, Corinne Dejous presented a poster and a short talk, highlighting the concept developed as part of the PhD research of Till Schmidt, entitled “Intermodulation-Based Non-Linear Behavior Prediction Towards Electronic Waste Reduction” (T. Schmidt, R. Dauny, C. Dejous, V. Vigneras, L. Oyhenart, S. Hemour). This work introduces an innovative two-tone intermodulation technique that enables contactless component characterization without direct DC measurements, thereby supporting more efficient component sorting and reuse and contributing to electronic waste reduction and more sustainable electronics.
This research was carried out within the framework of the REMPOWER project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme (Grant Agreement No. 10116175).
