Abstract: The present invention concerns an in vitro method for diagnosing a myeloid tumour or a lymphoid tumour in a subject, which comprises the step of analyzing a biological sample from said subject by (i) detecting the presence of a mutation in the Ten Eleven Translocation protein family member 2 gene (TET2) coding for the polypeptide having the sequence SEQ ID NO: 2, and/or (ii) analyzing the expression of the TET2 gene; wherein the detection of such a TET2 mutation, of the absence of expression of TET2 or of the expression of a truncated TET2 is indicative of a subject developing or predisposed to develop a myeloid tumour or a lymphoid tumour.

Abstract: This invention concerns a device for ellipsometric two-dimensional display of a sample placed in an incident medium, observed between a convergent light cross-reflected analyser and polarizer, wherein the ellipsometric parameters of the ensemble formed by the sample and a substrate whereon it is placed, are processed. The substrate comprises a base and a stack of layers of base and its ellipsometric properties are known. The ellipsometric properties of the substrate are such that the variations of the ellipsometric parameters of the sample are displayed with a contrast greater than the contrast produced in the absence of such substrate. The invention also concerns a display method and an ellipsometric measurement method with spatial resolution.

Abstract: A photodetector based on buried junctions includes a semiconductor structure with two successive p-n junctions, buried at increasing depths, assembled in pairs in opposition, and defining at least three layers. One of the layers is adjacent to a photosensitive portion of the surface of the photodetector. A reverse bias is applied to the junctions, and the values of at least two internal currents passing through such junctions is detected. The internal currents are generated by received light, with each of the junctions corresponding to a particular wavelength of the received light.
