Biography edit
Jean-Claude Simon was born in Da Lat, Vietnam, on 14 September 1948. He received the Doctorate degree from Université d’Orsay, France, in 1975, and the Doctorate d’Etat degree from University of Nice Sophia Antipolis, France, in 1983. In 1972, he joined the Centre national d'études des télécommunications (CNET), in Lannion, France, the research center of the French PTT (later France Télécom) for his thesis work. Since 1973, he was employed by CNET as a research scientist on optical communication, in particular on the subject of optical amplifiers. From 1983 to 1997, he was leader of a group in the field of semiconductor optical amplifiers and their applications for nonlinear optical devices. From 1997 to 1998, he was responsible for the management of several research projects.
In 1999 he moved to University of Rennes 1, France, where he was appointed to professor.[1] He has authored or coauthored approximately 130 papers, including about 25 invited conferences. He has been involved in European research programs RACE, ESPRIT, and ACTS.
