Profile: | Laboratoire Charles Fabry de l’Institut d’Optique has been established as a joint laboratory between Institut d’Optique Théorique et Appliquée (IOTA) and “Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique” (CNRS), in cooperation with Université Paris-Sud. The nationally endorsed research component of Institut d’Optique, it is one major component of IOTA together with the Engineering School, Ecole supérieure d’Optique. Most faculty members of the School are active in research in the Laboratory. Located on the premises of the University at Orsay, it enjoys a particularly active and rich scientific and technological environment in the Orsay/Saclay/Palaiseau area. Late in 2006 it will move to new building at Palaiseau, next to Ecole polytechnique. In this context, it is logical for the Laboratory to cover a broad range of optical research, both fondamental and applied, with emphasis on experimental aspects. Skills covering essentially all of optics are highlighted by the timely research topics conducted by the six research groups :
In the Non linear Materials and Applicationsresearch Group, activities focus on light – matter interaction and more specifically on optical and electro-optical nonlinearities in nanostructured materials and epitaxial thin films. Taking advantage of specific nonlinearities evidenced in basic studies, we design and develop novel optical functions and components for telecommunications and holographic storage. |
