Projects

light trapping
The aim of this project is to study original photoelectrode films, with a controlled structure grown using bottom-up approaches, which exhibit light-trapping properties.
Self-assembly to pattern thin films: Liesegang rings, dewetting and electrohydrodynamic destabilization.
Solar hydrogen thanks to artificial photosynthesis and hydrogen generator development.
A joint solar water splitting project with University of Hawaii
Defect study on photoanode surface and interface using impedance spectroscopy, operando XPS and ab-initio calculations.
