Biography

Claire Besançon received her Ph.D degree in photonics from the University of Grenoble Alpes, France, in 2020. She was working on the growth, fabrication and characterization of III-V laser sources onto silicon within the European Project H2020 PICTURE (https://picture-h2020.eu/). Since March 2020, she is a MOVPE researcher at Nokia Bell Labs, III-V Lab. Her current research activities focus on the development of PICs in the silicon photonics platform using advanced regrowth techniques such as Selective Area Growth (SAG), Butt-Joint regrowth (BJ) or Semi-Insulating Buried Heterostructure (SIBH).
