Primary activity: High resolution and sensibility molecular spectroscopy. Metastable atom beams spectroscopy. Electronic devices for phase locked loops of lasers. Metrology. Experimental studies of spatio-temporal instabilities in dynamical systems. High sensitivity spectroscopic systems operating in the mid-infrared with high finesse resonant cavities for the detection of trace gases, in particular CO2 radiocarbon.

Main experiences acquired: Development of experiments with laser, writing of acquisition programs and elaboration of experimental data; development of theoretical models and implementation of simulation programs. Design and realization of experimental apparatus. Optical Physics teaching, history of Optics.
