Biography

Dr. Hassina Derbal Habak obtained her graduated on “Capteurs Optiques et Instrumentations from University of Angers and made her PhD thesis in same University in the same Laboratory PHIA. She worked on elaboration and characterization of structured organic solar cells. She demonstrated the relation between morphology, physico-chemical and electrical characteristics of the cells. She studied and used new materials as C60’derivatives and Carbon Nanotubes for improving solar cells’ performance. She worked as professor associate in Ecole des Arts et Métiers d’Angers. She joined the Laboratoire Angevin de Mécanique, Procédés et innovation in the same structure. She Joined for her Post-Doc IM2NP and LPCIM-Ecole Polytechnique. She studied new solar cells based on CNT or Silicon amorphous as electrodes. She had interest into interface effects on I-V parameters and optical characteristics. She is Full Professor associate in University of Picardie Jules Verne-France from Laboratoire de Technologie Innovante LTI. She undertakes in several project concerning new generations of solar cells in terms of new materials in thin photoactive layers or to use a bio-sourced materials as substrates. She is working also on the coupling between Thermal cells and Solar PV cells.
