Laure Biniek works at the Institut Charles Sadron in Strasbourg (France), as CNRS researcher (since 2014).  She is  a member of STELORG, the electronic organic consortium of Strasbourg, ITI HiFunMat  and GFP Section Est.

At ICS, she holds the role of sustainable development referent to study the environmental impact of the institute and facilitate the implementation of greenhouse gas reduction trajectories. This approach is supported by Labos 1point5.


Her research interests focus on structure-property correlations for organic electronic applications. She is currently developing porous conducting polymer  structures for thermoelectrics, energy storage and sensors. Porosity (pore size, shape, orientation,..)  is carefully controlled by polymer gelation and solvent extraction techniques such as supercritical drying or the ice-templating method. 

She also has experience in polymer synthesis and the control of the structure and morphology of (semi-)conducting polymers in thin films. At ICS, she gained expertise in multi-scale structural analysis using (cryo)-Electron microscopy  and X-ray scattering and spectroscopy techniques in collaboration with the different platforms of ICS.

  •  ANR JCJC BODYTEG Project (01/2020-02/2024): «Harvesting body heat using polymer aerogels thermoelectric generators to power wearable devices»

Abstract: What if body heat could power wearable devices, medical monitors and watches with ultralight, cheap and flexible thermoelectric devices? BODYTEG project aims at taking advantage of the very low thermal conductivity of aerogels made of highly conducting polymers to elaborate new thermoelectric generators. On this basis, BODYTEG has accordingly four main objectives: i) producing both p- and n-type conductive polymer aerogels (CPAs) with controlled morphology, ii) taking benefit of the porous network to decrease the thermal conductivity of the CPAs, iii) maintaining good mechanical and electrical properties of the aerogel, iv) correlate the structure of the CPAs with their electrical and thermal properties. Ultimately this 42 months project aims to thermoelectric devices with a figure of merit larger by at least one order of magnitude than the present state of the art. Their performances should allow them to power the wearable sensors used in outdoor activities or in medical diagnostic.
