Vincent Jourdain

Vincent  is lecturer at the University of Montpellier. His main interests are the physics and chemistry of carbon nanotubes, especially including their growth mechanisms, their nanofluidic properties and their optical characterization. His approach notably involvedin situmeasurements by Raman spectroscopy, polarized optical imaging, and low-noise electrical measurements.
