2016年12月13日，法国下诺曼底卡昂大学Richard Moncorge教授应邀访问福建省光传输与变换重点实验室，并在华侨大学厦门校区机电信息大楼B521做了题为《Laser Materials and instrumentation at CIMAP research center》的报告。参加报告的有欧聪杰博士、陈旭东博士、徐斌博士、渠彪博士、郭悦韶老师，R. Moncorge教授夫人以及本学院硕士研究生等，讲座由欧聪杰博士主持。
    R. Moncorge教授首先介绍了卡昂大学CIMAP科研中心的构成及其研究领域，重点介绍了激光研究小组（MIL）的专长、仪器设备、研究领域和兴趣，以及近期的研究项目。
    关于激光晶体和技术方面，R. Moncorge教授从三个方面作了介绍：1. Yb：CaF2和Nd，Lu：CaF2晶体产生高能量脉冲激光；2. 应用于微型、波导或薄片激光器的稀土离子掺杂的氟化物晶体；3. 应用于太阳能电池板荧光转换和全光中红外传感器的稀土离子掺杂材料。
    讲座之后，Richard Moncroge教授参观了福建省光传输与变换重点实验室，冀璇璇硕士和昌成成硕士对本实验室的最新实验进行了介绍。R. Moncorge教授对实验情况进行了询问，并表示希望能在激光领域进行下一步的科研合作。

    Prof. Dr. Richard Moncorgé received the Doctorat degree in Atomic and Molecular Physics from the University of Lyon in 1976 and the Doctorates Sciences Physiques degree in 1982. He was Directeur de Recherche at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) between 1993 and 1997, then a Professor of “classe exceptionnelle”, leading researches in the group “Materials and Laser Instrumentation” (MIL) of the Centre de Recherchesur les Ions, les Matériaux et la Photonique (CIMAP), at the University of Caen Basse-Normandie (UCBN).
    He was the principal coordinator of the CNRS national network CMDO+ for “Cristaux Massifs, Micro-nano-structures et Dispositifs pour l’Optique” and a Topical Editor of the J. Opt. Soc. Am. B for the Luminescent Compounds and Processes and the Laser Materials.
    He was a Committee member, a Program or a General Chair of many international conferences among which the famous Advanced Solid State Lasers (ASSL) conference which was recently organized in Berlin in 2015 and in Boston in October 2016.
    He is the author or the co-author of several book chapters, including one full lecture book of nearly 1000 pages on “Atomic and Molecular Physics”, and the author or the co-author of more than 320 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals.
    He is now an Emeritus Professor at the University of Caen, a Fellow of the American and European Optical Societies (EOS, OSA) and an Editorial Advisor of the French Scientific & Technical review “Techniques de l’Ingénieur” more particularly in charge of the Optical Materials.
