Development of integrated superconducting nanowire single photon detectors on silicon for photonic quantum computing
The development of quantum technologies represents a major challenge for the future of our society, in particular to build unhackable communications as well as quantum computers offering computing power well beyond that available with current supercomputers. Photonic quantum bits (or qubits), in the form of single photons, are robust against quantum decoherence and are therefore...

Etch and integration of phase change materials for reconfigurable photonic
Chalcogenide glasses are materials of interest for many applications: in phase-change memories, for example optical storage (CD-RW, DVD-RAM, Blu-ray Disks) or more recently Storage Class Memory, as a selector in 3D architecture resistive memories (OTS selector) or as an active medium for non-linear optics and reconfigurable photonics. In the latter case, the production of metasurfaces...

Enabling patterning fidelity analysis over millimetric distances for curvilinear mask data-preparation : application to photonics devices.
Integrated silicon photonics, which consists of using manufacturing processes from the microelectronics industry to produce photonic components, is considered a critical future technology for very high-speed communications and computing applications. The creation of silicon photonics devices requires the manipulation of fully curved designs (so-called non-Manhattan). This gives rise to numerous challenges during their manufacturing, and...

Inscription of Optical Waveguide in Silica or Saphirre Optical Fbers and Characterization at High Temperature
Fiber Bragg Gratings are structures, photo-inscribed with femtosecond laser, inside the fiber core and can be used as band pass optical filters (centered around the Bragg wavelength). Bragg wavelengths are easily multiplexed and they give to us the necessary information. Silica-based fiber Bragg gratings are point sensors and can measure temperature up to 1200°C. For...

High speed III-V on Silicon modulators for optical communications and sensing
Worldwide demand for digital interconnections is driven both by increasing data exchanges and by an increasing number of human and non-human users. Optical communications are commonly used to answer this demand, exploiting the network of optical fibers deployed to interconnect data centers and users alike. The data streams across this planet-scale infrastructure are routed at...

Development of a fully passive plenoptic thermal imaging system
Low-resolution plenoptics is becoming widespread in visible imagers for applications such as autofocus, image post-processing and sometimes depth estimation. Its principle is based on the association of three main constitutive elements, a pixels-sized microlens array, a focal plane array of detectors and reconstruction algorithms. Through this thesis, we would like to evaluate the possibility of...
