Their atomically thin nature gives rise to distinctive electronic and optical properties, while simultaneously enabling them to function as highly sensitive, readily integrable probes of their local environment. Advanced optical techniques, such as super-resolution microscopy, have opened new opportunities to interrogate these materials at the nanoscale, providing optical access to individual defect behaviors, exciton diffusion and recombination dynamics, and charge transport pathways. Such approaches not only deepen our understanding of intrinsic material behavior but also position 2D systems as powerful sensors capable of resolving local dielectric variations, electric and magnetic fields, and other environmental perturbations.<br>\r\nCentral to this work is hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a transparent, wide bandgap semiconductor that serves as a host for optically active defects. These defects function as reaction centers, single-photon emitters, and spatially resolved nanoscale sensors that can be readily integrated into electronic and photonic architectures. Owing to its optical transparency, chemical stability, and compatibility with diverse material platforms, hBN provides an exceptional foundation for optical sensing. Building upon this foundation, we explore material properties and present new methods for spatially resolved in situ optical imaging with hBN to advance dynamic, wide-field optical sensing.<br>\r\nWe investigate a previously reported class of emitters that arise from interactions between native hBN and organic solvents. These emitters are believed to originate from defect sites that bind transiently to solvent molecules. To study their behavior, we develop a platform for imaging the dynamics of these transient emitters while varying the electrochemical potential and applying electric fields with controlled orientations. By tracking the spectra of individual emitters, we enable multiplexed measurements that allow spatially resolved electrochemical imaging. Through systematic analysis, we rule out modulation mechanisms based on direct electric field effects or charge transfer. Instead, we identify a mechanism driven by changes in H⁺ concentration, which is modulated during the oxidation of trace water present in the solvent. This finding opens the possibility of using this platform for sensitive detection of H⁺ and trace water in methanol fuel cells, where such species critically influence operational efficiency.<br>\r\nIn the final part of the thesis, we focus on a well-characterized spin defect in hBN, the negatively charged boron vacancy, and explore strategies to enhance its photoluminescence (PL) through heterostructure engineering that facilitates energy and exciton transfer. We demonstrate the coupled structure’s improved utility in optical magnetometry compared to the defect by itself and discuss how improvements in PL could advance the development of wide-field optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) imaging using this spin defect. Using a defect in hBN would leverage 2D materials’ exceptional sensing capabilities and planar integrability.<br>\r\nOverall, this thesis aims to highlight the strengths of integrating 2D materials with optical sensing and to develop transferable techniques for introducing controlled stimuli, such as electrochemical potentials, electric fields, or electromagnetic waves, with high fidelity and minimal artifacts. These advances not only demonstrate the potential of hBN as a versatile sensing platform but also establish methodologies applicable to a wide range of low-dimensional material systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFor zoom:<br>\r\n Meeting ID: 611 3428 2068 Passcode: 952027</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-13T16:07:39", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-13T16:07:39", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "ELA 1", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==ELA%201", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/61134282068?pwd=zurg0qXVsUx4ln0hxCcrvjDCiHhwSx.1", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Eveline Mayner\r\n\r\nAleksandra Radenovic", "organizer": "Eveline Mayner", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Public Defense", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120775/", "category": { "id": 4, "code": "DIVERS", "fr_label": "Autres types d’événement", "en_label": "Miscellaneous", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71903, "title": "Computer-aided proofs in first-order optimization, with applications to error feedback", "slug": "computer-aided-proofs-in-first-order-optimization", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/computer-aided-proofs-in-first-order-optimization", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33221/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33221/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33221/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-29", "end_date": "2026-05-29", "start_time": "15:15:00", "end_time": "16:15:00", "description": "<p>First-order methods are widely used in optimization and machine learning, and their behavior is often analyzed through the spectrum of worst case convergence rates. Obtaining such guarantees is often difficult and both time consuming and error-prone. Starting with the work of Drori and Teboulle (2014), novel techniques have been used to gain numerical insights, leading to the release of various performance estimation (PE) software. <br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn this talk, I will show how various computer-aided techniques can be used to study first-order optimization methods in a systematic way. From performance estimation problems with automated Lyapunov discovery, to symbolic regression and computer algebra systems, novel tools completely reshape the way we approach theory of optimization. <br>\r\nAs a main example, I will focus on error feedback methods used with compressed communication in distributed optimization. While error feedback has been widely studied, existing theory often provides untight (thus unreliable) bounds. I will present tight analyses with matching lower bounds that allow a fair comparison between error feedback schemes and standard compressed gradient descent, and help explain when error feedback is useful and when it is not.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nOverall, the talk aims to show how various computer-aided proofs can lead to clearer and more reliable insights into first-order optimization methods.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nBased on :<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://icml.cc/virtual/2026/poster/62713\" target=\"_blank\">A Tight Theory of Error Feedback Algorithms in Distributed Optimization,</a> DB Thomsen, A Taylor, A Dieuleveut<br>\r\nInternational Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2026)<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=fr&user=ge-OinUAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate&citation_for_view=ge-OinUAAAAJ:q3oQSFYPqjQC\" target=\"_blank\">Tight analyses of first-order methods with error feedback</a>, DB Thomsen, A Taylor, A Dieuleveut<br>\r\nAdvances in Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) (2025).<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=fr&user=ge-OinUAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate&citation_for_view=ge-OinUAAAAJ:L8Ckcad2t8MC\" target=\"_blank\">PEPit: computer-assisted worst-case analyses of first-order optimization methods in Python</a><br>\r\nB Goujaud, C Moucer, F Glineur, JM Hendrickx, AB Taylor, A Dieuleveut<br>\r\nMathematical Programming Computation 16 (3), 337-367 (2024)<br>\r\n(eventually - as a detour) <a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=fr&user=ge-OinUAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate&citation_for_view=ge-OinUAAAAJ:wbdj-CoPYUoC\" target=\"_blank\">Provable non-accelerations of the heavy-ball method</a> B Goujaud, A Taylor, A Dieuleveut, Mathematical Programming, 1-59 (2025)<br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-19T09:20:45", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-19T09:22:37", "link_label": "", "link_url": "https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sb/research/math/research/statistics/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Aymeric Dieuleveut, Ecole Polytechnique, Institut Polytechnique de Paris", "organizer": "Myrto Limnios ", "contact": "Maroussia Schaffner", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120800/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/288/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71910, "title": "Synthetic and Immunoengineering Strategies to Modulate the Tumor Microenvironment for Enhanced Cancer Immunotherapy", "slug": "synthetic-and-immunoengineering-strategies-to-mo-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/synthetic-and-immunoengineering-strategies-to-mo-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33227/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33227/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33227/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-29", "end_date": "2026-05-29", "start_time": "16:00:00", "end_time": null, "description": "<p>Thesis Directors: Prof. X.

The ultimate research goal of our group is to synthesize nitrogen-containing organic compounds efficiently and directly from N<sub>2</sub> gas as the nitrogen source, bypassing the NH<sub>3</sub>-depended synthetic pathway, mainly via metal-mediated or catalyzed dinitrogen functionalization.<sup>1</sup><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<img alt=\"\" id=\"_x0000_i1025\" o:ole=\"\" src=\"file:///C:/Users/mborcard/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image001.emz\"><br>\r\n<img alt=\"\" id=\"图片_x0020_1\" src=\"file:///C:/Users/mborcard/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.emz\"><br>\r\n<br>\r\nAt this presentation, I will briefly introduce two results recently realized in my research group.
