Function : Intern
Contract : CNRS internship agreement
Starting date: Spring/Summer 2026
Duration: 6 months
Workplace: IPVF – 18 boulevard Thomas Gobert, 91120 Palaiseau
Education: M2, Engineering school in optics, material science, physical science
IPVF is a scientific and technical pole dedicated to the research and development of solar technologies. It permanently hosts its own staff, as well as the employees of its partners and external companies. IPVF aims to become one of the world’s leading centers for research, innovation, and training in the field of energy transition.
IPVF primary objective is to improve the performance and competitiveness of photovoltaic cells and develop breakthrough technologies by relying on four levers:
• Ambitious research program.
• The hosting of more than 200 researchers and their laboratories on its Paris-Saclay site.
• A state-of-the-art technology platform (8,000 m²) open to the photovoltaic industry actors, with more than 100 state-of-the-art equipment units located in clean rooms.
• A training program mainly based on a master’s degree, the supervision of PhD students, and continuing education.
The internship will aim to design and fabricate a prototype using new method of characterization of PV modules. An collaborative project linked with the internship has been submitted.
💼Optical spectroscopies at IPVF: IPVF staff includes an optical characterization team, well known for PV materials and devices probing. The internship aims to design and fabricate a new type of device in order to monitor the status of the pannel in operando conditions.
To realize and characterize a prototype of sensor including optical waveguides and integrate it in a solar pannel.
