^ Research activities
My PhD thesis deals with the experimental study of the optoelectronic properties of carbon nanotubes, using optical spectroscopies (Absorption, Photoluminescence, Raman) including measurements at low temperature (Helium) and at the single object scale. Intrinsic nanotube features have been studied such as the evolution of the absorption cross section depending on the chiral species and the dephasing in low temperature luminescence induced by a coupling of the exciton to the low energy acoustic phonons. Physical chemistry of nanotube/dye molecules hybrid compounds have been investigated leading to the evaluation of the non-covalent binding energies and the efficiency of an internal energy transfer.^ Major publications
