Welcome to the SI2 (Synthèse et Imagerie de Sondes Inorganiques,
Synthesis and Imaging of Inorganic Nanoprobes) group, part of the LPEM lab. The group is composed of 5 researchers, 2 engineers and 10 PhD students.
Our main research activities focus on the synthesis,
characterization and functionalization of inorganic nanoparticles for
optoelectronics and biological applications, as well as on the
development of novel high resolution fluorescence microscopy modalities:

 Semiconductor nanoplatelets
 Surface chemistry of nanoparticles for bio-detection and -imaging
 High resolution fluorescence microscopy
 Fluorescent nanoprobes for in vivo imaging
