I am interested in developing new synthesis methods of inorganic luminescent nanocrystals to control their size and morphology. My goal is to control and optimize the optical efficiency of these nanocrystals by mastering their morphology, crystal quality, size and size distribution. These nanocrystals are developed for LED-based white lighting (nanophosphors) and for biomedical applications (bio-imaging and nanothermometry).
