Strain and defects in materials
I am Research Director at the french National Center for Scientific Research in the Ceramics Institute. This is my personal professionnal homepage hosted at university of Limoges. My research is focused on the analysis of the nanostructure and structural defects in materials, using x-ray diffraction, diffuse x-ray scattering and numerical computing with the Python programming language and the SciPy stack.
