Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCyril Cayron is a materials science researcher and engineer with over two decades of experience bridging fundamental research and applied development, currently a Collaborateur Scientifique at EPFL. He holds an engineering degree from Mines de Nancy and a PhD from EPFL, where he discovered an order–disorder transition in AlMgSiCu alloys. Previously he led a 10‑person nanocaracterization group at CEA (2007–2014) and has authored 60+ peer‑reviewed articles and three patents across transport, nuclear, microelectronics, solar and battery materials. Expert in phase transformation, processing and advanced electron microscopies (TEM/HRTEM/HRSTEM, SEM, EDS, EBSD), he pairs deep experimental skills with Python programming and is the creator of the commercial ARPGE software. His work spans practical industrial problems (Al, Ti, Ni superalloys, ODS steels, ITER) to nanoscale devices (Si nanowires, CIGS), demonstrating an unusual combination of leadership in large labs and hands‑on microscopy technique. Based in Neuchâtel and a casual Gentoo enthusiast, he brings rigor, reproducible tools and industrial impact to academic research.
