Jerome Wenger will defend his "Habilitation à diriger des recherches" on June 05th, Rouard's amphitheater 01:15PM. For those unfamiliar with the French university system, the Habilitation à diriger des recherches (HDR) is a sort of super-PhD. Obsolete and administratively required.
Ultimate geekiness: my Phd thesis has been turned into a real book, that is now available online via amazon or morebooks.
To make it short: I didn't pay anything to the editor, the editor did a great job (positive feedback), I don't get any money from that, and apart from the cover and back pages, the document is identical to my PhD thesis which can be freely downloaded via the CCSD website.

Since the beginning of March, we have the pleasure to work with our new staff member Laëtitia Le Guay. She will be in charge of all administratives issues related to the ERC ExtendFRET and NanoVista projects.
A book reviewing all aspects of optical antennas is to be published this year (presumably?) by Cambridge University Press, edited by Andrea Alu and Mario Agio. For those interested in the specific configuration of aperture antennas, you may download a preprint copy of the chapter I wrote by clicking here (for individual non-commercial use only of course).
Chapter contents:
- Enhanced light-matter interaction on nanoaperture antennas (single, corrugated and arrays)
- Biophotonic applications of nanoaperture antennas
- Nanophotonic applications of nanoaperture antennas
