Doctor Abdelhafed Taleb


Dr. Abdelhafed Taleb is an associate professor at Sorbonne University in the “Institut de recherche de Chimie Paris” (IRCP / ENSCP), where he is leading the group “Elaboration and Modelling of Nanostructred Films” group. He received his PhD diploma in nanomaterials science from UPMC in Paris in 1998. During his PhD, he pointed out collective’s properties due to nanoparticles organization. In 2000, he joined the UPMC, where he worked on the synthesis of inorganic-organic hybrid nanomaterials and the development of new strategies to assemble them in different structures of coating. Since 2009, he leads the group focusing on the design of nanostructured films with novel architectures and their applications in different areas such as electrochemical sensing, self-cleaning (superhydrophobic) coating, photovoltaic (DSSC), batteries, anticorrosion coating, magnetic storage supports etc … He has more than 24 years of experience in nanomaterial synthesis, characterizations, the study of their physical properties and their applications. Dr. Abdelhafed TALEB coorganized several international conferences, and is on several journal Editorial Boards, including sensors and Frontiers in Energy Research: nanoenergy technologies and materials. He was awarded the Electrocorr Award in 2005 and nominated for Eni award 2017. In 2019, he was awarded a Bonus for Sorbonne scientific excellence. The research activity carried out by Dr. Abdelhafed TALEB have been cited more than 3834 times (google citations). He is also author of more than 90 presentations at National and International conferences, including plenary and keynotes.
