Projects.The research projects that we develop are in the fields of chemistry and materials science. They are oriented towards the synthesis of innovative semiconductor materials for applications in optoelectronics, in photovoltaics and thermoelectricity. Our research covers fundamental studies, to understand the relationships between structure and properties, and methodological developments to facilitate the integration of the new materials into devices and enable their advanced characterization.

Projects funded by ANR
MONOPOLY (2023-2026)
Funder : Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) Role : Partner More efficient and stable organic photovoltaics incorporating fullerene-free acceptor polymers Abstract : The goal of MONOPOLY is the development of NFA-polymers with improved charge carrier mobility, crystallinity and compatibility with air processing. MONOPOLY targets to produce square-centimetre sized solar cells with PCE over 15% and 10 years stability. |
European Projects
PISCO -ERC Ad-Grant (2019-2025)
Funder : European Research Council (ERC) Grant number: 832606 Role : Renaud Demadrille (PI) Abstract: The project, "PISCO" (Photochromic Solar Cells: Towards Photovoltaic Devices with Variable and Self-Adaptable Optical Transmission), focuses on the development of photochromic solar cells, these new generation hybrid cells are photovoltaic devices with variable optical transmission. In other words, these new photovoltaic devices based on organic dyes will have a light transmission and energy production that can be self-adapted according to weather conditions. The project aims to develop this technology, which could be used in the building or automotive sector. Project funded by IDEX
GRANTH (2020-2023)
Funder : IDEX-Grenoble (ANR-15-IDEX-02) Role : Cyril Aumaitre (PI) Abstract: The main objective of “GRANTH” project is to develop new graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) for thermoelectric application. Access to pure and well-defined GNRs toward the bottom up approach is challenging and requires greener and cleaner chemical strategies than the classical Scholl reaction. This project proposes to investigate photochemical reactions to graphitize the nanoribbons in mild conditions. The thermoelectric properties of these nano-objects will be studied, leading to the understanding of the structure-properties relationship of these materials. The projects aims to demonstrate the feasibility of these materials and their potential in thermoelectric generators. |
