Professor Trevor Hall appointed to the International Chair of SIScom
Professor Trevor Hall, Director of the Centre for Research at the University of Ottawa and Emeritus Professor of Optoelectronics at King's College London (UK), holder of Canada Research Chair Tier I, has just been appointed, for one year, to the prestigious international chair of SIScom at the Université Européenne de Bretagne.
He joined Télécom Bretagne on July 1st 2010 as a visiting professor in the Optics department. Trevor Hall will bring his expertise in the field of photonic technologies and radio-frequencies for future wireless access networks of reduced environmental impact.
Trevor Hall will contribute in particular to the design and implementation of an innovative laser source for optical generation of millimetric waves (60 GHz) destined for use in broadband radio-over-fibre transmission networks.
Trevor Hall will also be closely involved in problems linked to optimisation of energy consumption in hybrid networks and techniques of sustainable energy sourcing which use solar energy from high yield energy producing photovoltaic cells.
For this task, Trevor Hall will take part in the research activities of the Optics Department, such as the development of the CapilR platform (specializing in the evaluation of radio-over-fibre technologies) and will also contribute to the Growth project (Green Optical Wireless To The Home).

We are glad to announce that the article entitled High-resolution and compact refractometer for salinity measurements (published in Measurement Science and Technology, Vol 20, No 1, 2009) has won the award for Outstanding Paper in the "Sensors and Sensing Systems" category for 2009. The prize was awarded by the Editorial Board amongst all the papers published in the journal in 2009.
The proposed salinity sensor has been packaged by IFREMER and is now used in a series of measurements carried out on the IFREMER ship "Pourquoi Pas". The result of these measurements will be used for updating the salinity reference charts.
The patented sensor will be manufactured by a NKE Electronics who has already contracted two patent licenses.

Telecom Bretagne has created, in partnership with Brest Métropole Océane (BMO), a dedicated workplace named "Espace ARAGO" [pdf-FR] to facilitate access to its technological platforms, thereby enhancing synergy between research laboratories and the industrial environment.
This workplace will be hosting on the Technopole, 3 platforms and 2 spin-off companies all originating from Telecom Bretagne, including Eyes3Shut (manufacturing 3D active glasses) and Holotetrix ( manufacturing diffractive optics).
Our main objective is to create a favorable environment for strengthening cross-fertilization between academia and industry.
"Espace ARAGO" is now open to any academic or industrial partners willing to benefit from technical facilities and expertise.

HOLOTETRIX
Jeune pousse née il y a moins de deux ans dans le cocon de Télécom Bretagne, Holotetrix s'est spécialisée dans l'optique micro et nanoscopique. Quand d'autres se lancent sur les marchés de masse du téléphone portable et du lecteur de disques optiques, la start-up bretonne choisit l'industrie comme terrain d'épanouissement, particulièrement dans les secteurs du soudage, du perçage et de la gravure.

Brest, 26-27th October 2005
Technologies and architectures for all-optical telecommunication networks have been a topic of intense research for more than ten years now, dealing with issues such as : optical transmission at the physical layer, optically transparent network areas, protection and restoration schemes, multiple switching granularity (i.e. WDM and OTDM) and inter-networking between transport and control layers. While optical WDM transmission has been shown to be efficient and cost-effective in long-haul links, the situation is different in metro and access networks, where the unpredictable nature of traffic demands as well as more stringent economics and competing technologies have precluded wide-scale deployment of optics in these areas. The e-Photon/ONe field of activities is a good illustration of this wide spectrum of knowledge and expertise. This European network of excellence involves about 40 institutions including universities, research centres, operators and manufacturers to promote research and education integration in optical networking in Europe.
