Professor Martel and his group study various electrically active nanostructures so as to better understand phenomena linked to surfaces and interfaces, such as charge transfer and electrical conduction.

Professor Pellerin and his group focus on characterizing the structure and dynamics of polymers and self-assembled materials. They are particularly interested in the formation of nanofibers by electrospinning, molecular glasses and supramolecular complexes. They also develop novel infrared and Raman spectroscopy techniques.
