I recently wrote a News and Views paper for Light: Science & Applications describing how femtosecond pulses from an ultrafast mode-locked fiber laser can be optimized in real time by combining...
The Year 2020 represents 60 years since the first successful operation of the laser. This anniversary provides an ideal occasion to reflect on the myriad ways that lasers have revolutionized society...
After working in France for 20 years, I thought it could be fun to try to summarize a selection of highlights on Twitter. Clicking on this link should allow you to read this even without a Twitter...
Real time measurements of instabilities and intermittence in a mode-locked fibre laser exhibiting soliton-similariton dynamics just published! C. Lapre, C. Billet, F. Meng, P. Ryczkowski, T...
Some very exciting results applying the techniques of machine learning to predict extreme events have just been published in Scientific Reports
The CNRS has honoured the great work by our students and postdocs with a special highlight article of our real time measurement studies (Nature Commun. 7 13675 (2016) in their 2016 annual report !
Our latest results showing simultaneous real time characterisation of temporal and spectral instabilities of dissipative solitons has been published in Nature Photonics. https://www.nature.com/...
In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a temporal ghost imaging scheme which generates a magnified ghost image of an ultrafast waveform. Inspired by shadow imaging in the spatial...
Our latest results studying how the Peregrine soliton appears as a universal nonlinear structure have been published in Phys Rev Lett. https://tinyurl.com/y5ntlgwa There is also an earlier version on...
Instability and chaos in physical systems are random natural phenomena that are generally highly sensitive to fluctuations in initial conditions, however small they may be. To understand these...
