Research path
Since 2025: PhD candidate, Institut de Physique et Chimie des Matériaux de Strasbourg (IPCMS), University of Strasbourg & CNRS (FR), working on Local optoelectronics by AFM of oxide materials coupled with plasmonic nanoparticles, under the supervision of M. Rastei (DMO).
2024-2025: Master 2 Internship, Institut de Physique et Chimie des Matériaux de Strasbourg (IPCMS), University of Strasbourg & CNRS (FR), working on the Modeling of interparticular equilibrium distances between ligand-coated nanoparticles in superlattices, under the supervision of M. Rastei (DMO) & B. Donnio (DMO).
Academic path
Since 2025: PhD in condensed matter physics, see above.
2024-2025: Master 2 Materials Engineering and Nanoscience from the University of Strasbourg, Faculté de Physique & Ingénierie (FR).
2023-2024: Master 1 Material Science and Engineering from the University of Strasbourg, Faculté de Physique & Ingénierie (FR).
2020-2023: Physics degree from the University of Strasbourg, Faculté de Physique & Ingénierie (FR).
Current research
My PhD is about the association of plasmonic nanoparticles with metal oxides, in order to study mobile charge carriers behaviors. Also, an investigation on the influence of vacancies in the lattice on the optoelectronics properties of the assembled material is carried out. This work will be supported by the use of an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM).
