Antoine Wojdyla, Ph.D. Optical engineer
Objective Working as a researcher in optics, in initiatives that utilize state-of-the-art components within an environment strongly related to industry that encourages innovative thinking.
Skills Thorough experience in far-infrared, ultra-fast optics and biomedical imaging Excellent knowledge in optical communications, fiber optics and optical design Characterization of materials and modelization of physical properties C#, Matlab and LabView programming for data acquisition, signal processing and numerical simulations.
Work experience current Center for X-Ray Optics – Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, 2012 Postdoc fellow, Berkeley, CA – USA. I am working in the extreme ultraviolet division, on the prototyping of the next generation microexposure tool. I am in charge of building a mock-up in the visible range, for validation of concepts, and of the metrology for mechanical stabilization feedback.
2008-2012 Lab for Optics & Biosciences (École Polytechnique – CNRS – INSERM), Ph.D. in Optics, Palaiseau – France. I developed new methods for material characterization and biological imaging using ultrashort terahertz pulses (T-Rays). 2 international peer-reviewed journals articles, 3 international conference talks, 3 articles to be published. Supervision of two US interns (now graduate students at UMich and Berkeley).
2008-2011 Université Paris-Sud, Assistant lecturer, Orsay – France. Tutorials in Digital Signal Processing at graduate level (Polytech’Paris-Sud Opto-electronics division). Labclasses in Optics, CS and DSP at Université Paris-Sud, and THz science experimental activities at École Polytechnique.
2008 Thales Technology Center Singapore, Engineering intern, Singapore. I’ve worked on the design and the prototyping of a high-speed, free-space optical communication scheme for commercial use in aircrafts. The solution makes use of computer-generated holograms, fiber optics and advanced modulation schemes (OFDM).
2007 Valtionen Teknillinen Tutkimuskeskus (VTT) – Technical Research Center of Finland, Research intern, Oulu – Finland. I’ve worked on the nano-imprinting process of subwavelength anti-reflective structures, alongside with the determination of physical properties of thin-film solar cells (CIGS).
Education 2008-2012 École Polytechnique, Ph.D. in Optics – summa cum laude, Lab for Optics & Biosciences, Palaiseau – France. One of France’s most prestigious universities.
2005-2008 École Centrale de Marseille, Master’s Degree in Engineering – valedictorian , Marseille – France. French top tier, multidisciplinary engineering school. Major : Optics and Photonics. Complementary courses in medical imaging.
2008 Université Aix-Marseille, M.Sc. in Optics and Image Processing – magna cum laude, Marseille – France.
