Christophe Moser

Christophe Moser started his career as an engineer at Hexagon Metrology in Switzerland after graduating from EPFL in physics in 1993. He obtained his doctorate degree in 2000 in optical information processing from the California Institute of Technology. Moser co-founded and was the CEO of Ondax, Inc. (acquired by Coherent) in Monrovia, California. There, he developed several commercially successful products based on volume holographic components, such as tunable filters, wavelength stabilized high power diode lasers, pulse compressors and stretchers and Terahertz Raman spectroscopy systems. In 2010, he joined EPFL as an associate professor and is currently the Director of the MicroEngineering Section. His current research topics include light based volumetric additive manufacturing to reach micrometer resolution at the centimeter scale in different materials whose properties ranges from very soft - hydrogels to very hard – ceramics, glass. He is also interested in neuromorphic computing using linear and non-linear propagation in optical fibers as computing elements.
