Alexis Grimaud

Alexis Grimaud serves as a CNRS Research Assistant at Collège de France within the Chair in Solid State Chemistry and Energy since 2014, following a postdoctoral position at MIT's Electrochemical Energy Laboratory (2012-2014) under Professor Yang Shao-Horn.

His academic foundation includes an Engineering diploma from the Graduate School of Chemistry and Physics of Bordeaux (ENSCBP, 2008) and a PhD from University Bordeaux at the Bordeaux Institute of Condensed Matter Chemistry (ICMCB, 2011).

Dr. Grimaud's research centers on solid state chemistry approaches to develop advanced materials for electrochemical energy systems, with emphasis on redox processes in transition metal oxides. His work targets applications in fuel cells (both low-temperature and solid oxide variants), metal-air batteries, and Li-ion batteries through precise electronic structure engineering of oxide materials.

Analysis of his publications reveals a consistent focus on perovskite-based catalysts for oxygen evolution/reduction reactions, demonstrating expertise in synthesizing novel oxide materials and correlating their structural properties with electrochemical performance in energy conversion devices.
