<Dr. Jouvet’s Field of Specialization>

Dr Jouvet is Research Director first class at CNRS and Director of the international (Argentina/ French) laboratory LEMIR at the Aix –Marseille University. He is specialized in the excited state dynamics of aromatic molecules both experimentally and theoretically. He has developed experiments in which the dynamics of the molecule after the optical excitation can be followed in time from the femtosecond to the second.

＜Dr. Jouvet’s Project and aims at WRHI＞

I aim to study in WRHI excited state dynamics of molecules inside molecular cluster. By adding one by one molecules around the chromophore, we study how the dynamics is changed by the surrounding neighbors. This is applied to neutral, protonated and deprotonated molecules
