I graduated in Physics at École Normal Supérieure de Lyon (2002), obtained Masters in Didactics and History of Science (Université Lyon 1, 2004) and Theoretical Physics (Université Aix-Marseille, 2005), and a PhD in Physics (Universite Aix-Marseille, 2008). In São Carlos SP (Brazil) since 2011, I am working on light-matter interaction, with an emphasis on light scattering by atomic clouds, as well as long-range interacting systems. Since Feb. 2017 I am a junior Professor at the Department of Physics of the Federal University of São Carlos (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

In this project, we will realize a series of educational activities on the topic of acoustic and electromagnetic waves, based on (a) setting up experiments (science kit) with a script, and (b) art as a means of communicating science (murals, comics and plays). With a special attention to inclusion, these activities will be developed at school, where the scripts will be implemented and tes…
Localization of light in three-dimensional disordered samples has been elusive up to date, with several initial experimental reports, followed a few years later by their re-interpretation. While absorption and nonlinear effects may be to blame for erroneous interpretations of these early experiments, later theoretical insights predict that near field dipole-dipole coupling terms in 3D act…
This project addresses the light statistics from ensembles of many quantum emitters, where interference and quantum optics meet. Ion crystals represent a particularly adapted platform, since the number and position of the emitters can be tuned precisely, as well as the degree of randomness on their position (motional modes). We propose to take advantage of this tunability to explore the n…

This proposal aims at two parallel sets of activities in research and higher education that will be carried out by team of experimentalists and theorists from Sweden and Brazil. The main research topic is tightly bound to quantum technologies and addresses the use of quantum dots for quantum communication and simulation. In particular, we will employ light-mediated interaction between qua…
Large ensembles of cold atoms present strong cooperative properties as they scatter light, which results in a modified spontaneous emission. While cooperative scattering has been extensively studied up to date, its consequences on stochastic effects and on optical forces are still to be investigated, and it is the two objectives of the present project. The first goal will be to elucidate …

This post-doctoral project aims at determining how the new spectral lines translates in terms of joint emission of photons, with cascades of real and virtual ('leapfrog') processes. While correlations between photons of different colours have been demonstrated for single emitters (usingcold atoms and quantum dots), the interaction-induced correlations remain to be explored. Thepost-docto…
This project will investigate the correlations of light scattered by one-dimensional disordered systems, where the motion of the scatterers generates temporal fluctuations in the scattered field. Inspired by cold atom platforms, with the aim of obtaining a signature of the localization regime in the light fluctuations, the candidate will simulate one-dimensional chains of moving particles…

This project addresses the signatures of light localization in two-dimensional atomic systems. 2D systems present a scalar scattering channel, with localization, and a vector scattering channel, with diffusive properties, which allows a direct comparison of the two regimes. In this project we will identify different signatures of localization in these systems, exploring the transmitted pr…
Localization is a desirable phenomenon in superconducting qubits, due to the necessity to isolate certain parts of the system from the others and thus perform local operations. In this project, we aim to investigate localization in circuits of superconducting qubits, in presence of competing nearest-neighbor and long-range coupling in circuits with frequency disorder. Our objective is to …

In this project we develop tools to achieve entanglement tomography in largequantum systems, using a matrix product state (MPS) formalism. The platformwe will focus on is atoms inside optical tweezers where the local addressability isfeasible with high fidelity. We will also investigate how to prepare multipartiteentangled states outside the symmetric subspace, which can be used for multi…
During this one-year research internship, our aim is to delve deeper into the study of collective effects of the light-matter interaction within a cold atomic sample. We will develop theoretical tools to investigate a specific experimental configuration implemented in one of the experiments in the Cold Atoms research group at the Institut de Physique de Nice. The goal is to investigate th…
We aim at exploring the properties of trapped Rydberg ions to study its potential for quantum information processing tasks. More specifically in this project we will focus on realistic schemes for quantum operations and their experimental realizations in a system of Strontium ($^{88}$Sr$^{+}$) ions. To this end, one needs to take into account the properties of $^{88}$Sr$^{+}$ ions when ex…
This project aims at investigating the intensity of the emitted far-field by dilute atomic clouds where the light-mediated long-range interaction predominates. Spontaneous emission and interference effects then play an important role, differently from subwavelength systems of Rydberg atoms, yet the multiple scattering of light allows for remote atoms to exhibit correlations. During this i…
