Team Permanent members: Romain Bernard, Yves Borensztein, Hervé Cruguel, Geoffroy Prévot Supported metallic nanoparticles have a prominent place in the field of catalysis. Haruta’s discovery showing that Au nanoparticles catalytic activity exceptionally improves when...

Team Permanent members: Emmanuelle Lacaze, Sébastien Royer, Michel Goldmann, Emmanuel Lhuillier We use dedicated liquid crystal topological defects to confine nanoparticles in 1 Dimension (using liquid crystal smectic dislocations) or in 2 Dimensions (using ribbon-like...

Team Permanent member: Olivier Pluchery Past PhD: Louis Caillard (14-nov-2014). Grafted organic monolayers for single electron transport and for quantum dot solar cells Gold nanoparticles serve as ultra-small electron dispensers and make possible the control...

Team Permanent member: Olivier Pluchery Past PhD: Samuel Peillon (26 Oct 2020). Influence of electrostatic effects linked to radioactivity on adhesion forces and on the suspension of metallic particles Adhesion of nanoparticles and dust...

Team Permanent members: Emmanuel Lhuillier, Yoann Prado PhD student: Huichen Zang The group is involved in the design of optoelectronics devices using nanocrystals as active materials. To do so, we grow a broad range...
