Semiconductor physics
and technology

My favorite field of interest is semiconductor. Especially GaAs because most fascinating things for me are laser components.

Integrated circuits
and photonic circuits

I really enjoy electronics and optics. I want learn integrated circuits design and I already know how to design photonic integrated circuits. Recently, I have made a Mach-Zehnder interferometer chip.

Plasma physics
and their applications

The 'four state of matter' are really interessant. More interestingly, its application in diverse fields such as spatial propulsion (for CubeSats, the most exciting for me), fabrication (PECVD), energy, ...

Knowledges, skills and interests

Here are different areas in which I have acquired knowledge.
I enjoy to learn and I need to learn.
This knowledge will therefore strengthen and I am not impervious to develop expertises in other fields.

Physics

Physics is the science to try to understand the world. Parts of physics in which I would like to get involved are everything related to semiconductor (especially laser sources) and quantum mechanics (as quantum computing).
Optics

Light is everywhere, its properties are incredible. For me, the future of electronics is to be replaced by light (faster and does not heat up). That is why I take the choice to learn myself nonlinear optics and the design of photonic chips.
Electronics

I like combine a lot of small elements (such as resistors, capacitors, ...) and chips to obtain a fully worked circuits. I will learn the design of integrated circuits.
Electromechanics

With my formation, I have knowledges to modelize and design contactless energy transfer systems, electromechanical devices and their drives.
Computer science

I have knowledges in a lot of languages like C, AVR ASM, Matlab : either for computer software or for embedded system. The next language I will learn is C++ for microinformatics.
Mechanical engineering

I choose Microtechnics because I am rigorous and I like precision ! The design of systems using flexible guides is a nice challenge and the result is awesome.

Interested?

My micro-engineering formation allow me to work within or at the intersection of disciplines above.
