Professor Autran's research focuses on semiconductor device physics, radiation effects on microelectronics, and particle-semiconductor interactions. His work spans from fundamental physical phenomena to practical applications in radiation-hardened electronics. His research encompasses both theoretical modeling and experimental validation across multiple radiation environments including atmospheric radiation, space applications, and particle accelerator settings.

His recent publications demonstrate ongoing research activity in radiation effects on microelectronics, with his 2024 open-access Springer book continuing his work that began with the 2015 CRC Press publication on soft errors. His research shows consistent focus on understanding how radiation affects semiconductor devices and developing methods to predict and mitigate these effects.
