Kévin Le Calvez

Kévin Le Calvez has a diverse and extensive work experience. Kévin started their career as a R&D Engineer at Detection Technology in 2019. Prior to that, they worked at MULTIX DETECTION from November 2017 to December 2018, where they served as an R&D Study Engineer. At MULTIX DETECTION, they focused on improving the performance of multi-energy X-ray detectors for security and industry applications. Kévin developed algorithms to meet customer needs and optimize the information delivered by the detectors.

Before that, Kévin worked at Astek from June 2017 to November 2017 as a Test and Qualification Engineer at Trixell. Trixell is a joint venture of Thales and is a leader in digital radiology for medical use. During their time at Astek, they contributed to the quick qualification of two new portable X-ray detectors.

Prior to their industry experience, Kévin Le Calvez completed their Ph.D. at Institut Néel CNRS from March 2013 to April 2017. Kévin'sresearch focused on studying induced superconductivity in topological insulators. Kévin explored the unique properties of topological insulators and their potential use in quantum computing.

In 2012, Kévin worked on a research project at the Institute of Applied Physics. Kévin'sproject involved shaping and reducing the duration of femtosecond optical pulses for the study of "light bullets". Kévin was responsible for setting up the optical setup, developing the human-machine interface and control program, and reducing the pulse duration by a factor of four.

Early in their career, Kévin gained experience in software development at Schneider Electric. Kévin developed a charge/capacity management program using VBA under Microsoft Office.

Overall, Kévin Le Calvez has a strong background in R&D, particularly in the areas of X-ray detectors, topological insulators, and optical pulse manipulation.

Kévin Le Calvez has a diverse education history. Kévin completed their Baccalauréat degree at Saint François Xavier from 2001 to 2008. Following this, they attended Lycée Clemenceau from 2008 to 2010, although specific degree and field of study information was not provided for this period. Kévin then pursued an Engineer's degree in Condensed Matter and Materials Physics at Grenoble INP - Phelma from 2011 to 2013. Lastly, they undertook their Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Nanotechnologie at Université Grenoble Alpes from 2013 to 2017.
