Biography
Aurélien Habrioux (Associate Professor) has an expertise in electrocatalysis and in materials science. His research interests deal with the design and development of novel non-noble electrocatalysts for reactions such as oxygen reduction reaction and oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline medium. He is especially interested in scrutinizing and explaining surface restructuring phenomena affecting catalysts surface and occurring upon working conditions. He has been coordinating researches aiming at developing transition metal oxides supported heteroatom doped graphene-based materials for the reversible air electrode of high energy density Li-air and Zn-air batteries. He has also been working on the understanding of the effect of the active phase/substrate interaction on the electrocatalytic activity.
