I joined the group in spring 2004 at Michigan Sate University. I received a degree in engineering (materials science) in 2001 from I.S.I.T.V. (Institut des Sciences de l&apostrophe;Ingénieur de Toulon et du Var) in France.
My research focuses on the investigation of new thermoelectric materials based on narrow-bad gap semiconductors. One project consists on the exploratory synthesis of complex chalcogenide compounds containing alkali metals. Another system of interest involves nanostructured PbTe-based bulk materials.
