Solid state chemistry Electrocatalysis Ionic conduction Fuel cells and metal-air batteries Batteries I conduct my research in the area of ​​solid state chemistry, electrocatalysis and design of materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion. My research programs are centered on the fundamental understanding of redox processes of transition metal oxides used as electrodes for a wide variety of application such as low temperature fuel cells and electrolyzers, Li-air, Na-air and Li-ion batteries materials or high temperature solid oxide fuel cells with a special emphasis on applying a solid state chemistry approach for developing new materials through the fine tuning of their electronic structure. These programs include intensive experimental components such synthesis of new oxide materials, investigation of bulk and surface electrochemical processes, study of oxides electronic structure.
