On 15 May 2023, Tarik Aaboub successfully presented and defended his doctoral thesis about the development and characterization of luminescent molecular materials and luminescent technical textiles. Tarik’s thesis was a joint project between Université Hassan II de Casablanca and ENS Rennes, and the ceremony took place in Casablanca.
The thesis was supervised by Said Gmouh (Casablanca) and me (ENS Rennes). The project was funded through the PHC Toubkal programme, whose aid we gratefully acknowledge. The project was an opportunity for me to discover Morocco and its active scientific community, with many nice colleagues.
As part of his thesis work, Tarik helped develop an improved method for measuring photoluminescence quantum yields in solution, using very stable, but relatively broad-band LEDs as the excitation light source.
CONGRATULATIONS TARIK FOR A JOB WELL DONE.
Tarik is now a post-doc in the IMAP laboratory at ESPCI/ENS in Paris.
