Institut NEEL is a laboratory for fundamental research in
condensed matter physics, enriched by interdisciplinary activities
at the interfaces with chemistry, engineering and biology. To know
more, please visit the laboratory
website
.
I am part of the
Nanophysics and Semiconductor team
at Néel Institute
.
I joined the team in 2015.
The team is not only one of the research team at Néel Institute,
but it is also a joint research group between Néel Institute-CNRS
and IRIG-CEA.
NPSC mainly focuses on fundamental research in nanoscience,
exploring new physical phenomena, and sometimes their potential
applications, related to quantum confinement in low-dimensional
II-VI and III-V semiconductor heterostructures. These studies rely
on research activities dedicated both to the fabrication and to
the physical studies of high-quality samples. The expertise of the
team is based on arsenide, nitride, selenide and telluride
compounds, using advanced epitaxial techniques (MBE, metal organic
chemical vapor deposition MOCVD), technological processing,
structural characterization, as well as state-of-the-art optical
spectroscopy setups. The activity is also supported by theoretical
developments in quantum mechanics.
