Photonic systems and microsystems

This axis focuses on the study and integration of photonic technologies for the development of systems and microsystems that are used for the transmission of data or the measurement of chemical, biological and physical parameters. These systems and microsystems have applications in many fields such as optical communications, metrology, biomedicine and remote sensing. In particular, teams in this axis develop:

• Integrated photonic circuits and systems on silicon
• Optoelectronic microsystems for neuroscience
• Optical spectrometers and polarimeters
• Optical frequency combs
• Optical frequency metrology systems
• Hybrid integrated photonic systems combining photonic, microfluidic or electric circuits
• Photonic systems integrating various heterogeneous materials
• Imaging systems in various spectral bands for remote sensing and astronomy
