      Nanophotonics engineer

      • Develop new method to control light for nanophotonics applications based on silicon or silicon germanium. -Manipulating light with silicon is of fundamental importance for designing optoelectronic devices with essential applications in solar energy, signal processing, and light sources. Light propagates into Si optical waveguides whose typical size remains above a few micrometers. Si-based Mie resonators emerged two years ago as a promising alternative to manipulating light with subwavelength resonant scatterers. This novel class of photonic resonators combines the advantages of classical silicon waveguides and plasmonics: they are lossless, subwavelength in size, and they resonantly interact with light thanks to the excitation of low orders electric and magnetic modes in the nanoparticle. Along My thesis, I demonstrated the capabilities of a dewetting-based process to fabricate Si-based resonators over centimeter scales starting from commercial silicon on insulator (SOI) substrates featuring an ultra-thin Si layer. • Complex dewetting scenarios of ultrathin silicon films (SOI) for large-scale nanoarchitectures compatible with CMOS back-end process (Results in the state of the art)• Fabrication of nanophotonic structures for optical nanocircuits based on silicon and silicon germanium • Floating gate memory based on nanocrystal of silicon and silicon germanium • Optical characterization of SiGe quantum dots and quantum wells nanostructures• Epitaxy fabrication ( MOCVD/MBE) of optical devices based on silicon and silicon germanium.
