Expériences

I am currently a researcher at the Center for Advanced Technology Development (CDTA) located in Algiers, I work as research master B in the plasma and application team and I am responsible for doing applied and fundamental research. For the first part, my role is to ensure the realization of functional thin films by using PVD and CVD methods in order to give the surfaces of the materials specific characteristics according to the intended application. I also contribute to the training of Master's and Master's students during their end of study internship as well as the follow-up of PhD students whose objective; the realization of their doctoral thesis.

It was a long-term internship within the team "Oxydes in low dimension" under the supervision of Mr Rémi Lazzari Alain, the objective of this internship is the finalization of my PhD thesis and the work done was STM exploration of the growth of MgO thin films on Ag (100) crystals while learning ultra-high vacuum technologies and advanced surface characterization techniques such as LEED, XPS and STM.
