Speaker's Bio:
Dr. Roberto Morandotti, professor at INRS since 2003, has a broad knowledge in the fabrication of semiconductor, ferroelectric and glass integrated waveguides and in the use of various characterization techniques in optics. His main achievements to date are in nonlinear optics, where he has worked in the field of spatial and temporal nonlinear localizations, dealing in particular with discrete solitons, surface solitons and spatio-temporal light bullets. More recently, his research interests have broadened to encompass new topics of investigation, including linear and nonlinear magneto-optics and nonlinear THz Spetroscopy. He has served as the General Chair of the NP2007 OSA Topical Meeting, as a Program Chair for NLGW 2005 OSA Topical Meeting as well as a Sub-Committee Chair for various other OSA, SPIE, IEEE and LEOS meetings
