Christophe Sauvan

Christophe Sauvan is a CNRS Research Fellow and permanent staff member at the Institut d'Optique Graduate School, where he is affiliated with the Charles Fabry Laboratory. He works within the Nanophotonics research group, specifically focusing on Thermoplasmonics. As a CNRS Research Fellow, he is authorized to supervise research and contributes to the institution's mission in light science and technology.

His research interests span multiple areas of advanced photonics including nano-optics, plasmonics, quantum nanophotonics, and metasurfaces. Within the Nanophotonics group, his work relates to quantum engineering of single photons, incandescent metasurfaces, photoluminescence phenomena, and electroluminescence with tunneling effects. The research conducted in this group represents cutting-edge work at the intersection of optics, nanotechnology, and quantum physics.

The Institut d'Optique Graduate School operates across multiple campuses including Paris-Saclay, Bordeaux, and Saint-Étienne, with Sauvan likely based at the Paris-Saclay campus where the Charles Fabry Laboratory is situated. The institution maintains strong connections with CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research), which employs Sauvan as a research fellow.
