·  Publish the results in renowned journals and participate in conferences/workshops, etc.
·  Contribute to program reporting.

Contexte et environnement

IPVF (Institut Photovoltaïque d’Île-de-France), the Photovoltaic Institute of Île-de-France, institute for energy transition, is a scientific and technical center dedicated to the research and development of solar technologies. On its site located in Paris-Saclay, it brings together its own staff, employees of its partners and those of external companies.

The primary objective of the IPVF is to improve the performance and competitiveness of photovoltaic cells and to develop disruptive technologies by relying on four levers:

·  An ambitious research program;
·  The reception, on its Paris-Saclay site, of more than 200 researchers and their laboratories;
·  A cutting-edge technological platform (8,000 m²) open to players in the photovoltaic sector;
·  A training program mainly based on a master's degree, supervision of doctoral students, and continuing education.
