معرفی
Julien Renard is a permanent researcher at the Institute Néel, affiliated with CNRS and Grenoble Alpes University. He leads projects in the Quantum Electronics, Surfaces and Spintronics (QUEST) department and is a member of the Quan2m team (2D quantum states with tunable interactions) and the Superconducting Quantum Circuits group. His research focuses on hybrid quantum systems, particularly leveraging graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) for superconducting quantum circuits, optical-to-microwave conversion, and low-dimensional material characterization.
- Education: PhD in Nanophysics (2009, CEA-CNRS), MSc in Condensed Matter Physics (2006, INPG Grenoble).
Julien's recent work highlights advancements in graphene Josephson junctions for quantum parametric amplifiers, optical spectroscopy of TMDCs, and defect analysis in 2D heterostructures. His team has secured funding for multiple positions and collaborates internationally, including with Prof. Sergey Frolov (University of Pittsburgh) and researchers in India and Germany.
Scientific Awards:
- Habilitation à diriger des recherches (HDR), 2024
Julien has advised students like Simon Messelot (postdoc), Pranjal Kapoor (PhD), and Seong-Yeon Lee (postdoc), with projects funded by grants such as QuantAlps. His lab's recent achievements include a gate-tunable Josephson amplifier published in Nature Nanotechnology and a Phys. Rev. Lett. paper on polariton interactions.
