Welcome!

International Workshop on Microphononics and applications

We have the great pleasure to invite you to participate to the MicroPhononics 2017 Worskhop, jointly organized by FEMTO-ST, in the frame of its Laboratory of Excellence ACTION, and the GdR META (GdR CNRS n°3759).

The aim of this workshop is to provide an overview of the current directions in the field of phononics at the micron scale, from a material, device and application perspective. The event targets both academic, industrial and R&D players and will be organized around topical sessions dedicated to:

  • RF telecommunication systems,
  • MEMS,
  • Sensors,
  • Microfluidics.

A specific session will be devoted to emerging trends and potential applications related to high-frequency SAW, acousto-electronics or sound-matter interaction. The program will feature invited and contributed talks and will be completed by panel discussions, poster sessions and lab tours, in the hope to foster interaction.

  • Farrohk Ayazi, Georgia Tech, USA
  • Jonathan Cooper, University of Glasgow, UK
  • Dana Weinstein, Purdue University, USA
  • Tuomas Pensala, VTT, Finland
  • Paulo Santos, Paul-Drude-Institut, Germany
  • Victor Plessky, Resonant, Switzerland/USA

Participation is open to all, students, researchers, engineers or technical staff from academia or industry.

English is adopted as the official language of the symposium, to be used in the preparation of abstracts and oral presentations.

REGISTRATION is free of charge but required by 10 November 2017


Looking forward to meeting you in Besançon,
Sarah Benchabane, Abdelkrim Khelif (FEMTO-ST), Alexandre Reinhardt (CEA-Leti), for the organizing committee.
