Doctorate in Materials physics

The doctoral training in materials physics is an advanced research program aimed at training researchers specialized in the study of the physical properties of materials, from their development to their applications. This field, at the intersection of physics, chemistry, and engineering, focuses on understanding the fundamental phenomena that govern the behavior of materials at various scales (atomic, nano, micro, and macro).

Doctoral students work on a variety of topics: materials for energy, nanostructured materials, semiconductors, electronic materials, biomaterials, and advanced functional materials. The training is based on original research conducted in the laboratory, involving experimental, theoretical, and modeling approaches.

Upon completion of the program, a PhD holder in materials physics is capable of designing, developing, and optimizing innovative materials that meet current and future technological challenges (energy, environment, health, information technologies).
