Activités / CV

Dr. David Riassetto is an Associate professor HDR of Material Science. He got a Master of Science degree in physics and energy with honors in 2005 at University Joseph Fourier of Grenoble and a Ph.D. at Grenoble Institute of Technology in 2009. Between 2009 and 2011 he was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Utah. Since 2011, he is an associate professor at Grenoble Institute of Technology and doing his researches in the LMGP laboratory (Laboratory of Materials and Physical Engineering) has a member of the Functional thin films and surface nano-engineering (FunSurf) team, and more precisely of the Wet Chemistry & Surface Functionalization group. Currently Dr. David Riassetto’s researches focus on the surface functionalization at the nanometer scale, using wet-chemistry methods (e.g. sol-gel, photochemistry…), mainly for depollution (photocatalysis) and water management (water purification, desalination, water harvesting) applications. Since 2018 he is member of the board of Labex Ceman, from 2022 coleader of the Funsurf team and since 2023 is coleader of the CARE Lab core theme ‘Water Management’.

Research interests

DR research area is centered on prospective studies in the field of nanomaterials synthesis using wet chemistry methods: sol-gel chemistry, photochemistry and hydro-/solvo-thermal methods. As examples, thin films are made by sol-gel chemistry, while nanoparticles are synthesized using hydro-/solvo-thermal or photochemical methods. Both approaches are combined to make functionalized sol-gel thin films in order to increase their intrinsic properties (e.g. photocatalytic activity) or to induce new kind of properties (e.g. SERS activity).
