Speaker Bio
Nicolas K. Fontaine is the department head of silicon photonics at Nokia Bell Labs at Murray Hill, NJ USA. He received the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of California, Davis, CA, USA, in 2010. At Bell Laboratories, he develops devices for space-division multiplexing in multicore and few-mode fibers, builds wavelength cross-connects and filtering devices, and investigates spectral slice coherent receivers for THz bandwidth. He is an avid jazz pianist and enjoys hiking or skiing through the mountains wherever he can find them (certainly not in New Jersey).
