Ii. Research activities
Ways of studying the properties of electronic and thermal transport

My research activities revolve around the research or optimization of the properties of thermoelectric materials. Research topics Collaborations & Contracts Research themes As part of my research I am interested in the structure-properties relationships of materials with thermoelectric properties by studying the: – Low dimensionality materials – Materials with complex structure – Nano-composite materials They are conducted using both laboratory characterization techniques and large instruments to study diffusion mechanisms phonons or electronic transport at different scales.
