Process Engineer with more than 20 years of experience in the battery field. Started working with SAFT during 4 years, first on NiMH batteries during his PhD in electrochemistry and then on the improvement of Li-Ion battery safety. Joined CEA in 1999 to develop and set-up a Li-Ion cell assembly line.

From 2006 to 2010, in charge of the Li-Ion battery laboratory, covering active material synthesis up to Li-Ion cell prototyping in dry rooms. Some developments concerned both positive materials such as phosphate compounds or 5V spinels and negative materials such as LTO or Silicon-based anodes. Another part of the activity was dedicated to the development of custom batteries, e.g. medical applications, and also to the developments of bipolar Li-Ion for high power applications.

Since 2010, works as a battery scientific expert in CEA-LITEN and leads research on various topics: polyanionic cathode materials (phosphates and silicates), post Li-Ion technologies (both sodium-ion and magnesium-ion), battery modelling etc. Inventor and co-inventor of more than 25 patents in the battery field.
