Breve CV

Silvia Díaz Lucas obtained the title of Telecommunication Engineer in 2002, and the PhD in 2007, both at the Public University of Navarre.

During 2003 and 2004, she made Pre-doctoral research stays in the Photonics group of University of Cantabria, Santander, working in signal processing with fiber optics sensor networks. In 2006, she did another pre-doctoral research stay at the École Polytechnique Fédérale of Lausanne, Switzerland, studying different procedures and strategies to extend the operating range of a distributed Brillouin sensor. In 2009, she made a post-doctoral research stay at the Centre for Photonics and Photonic Materials of the University of Bath, United Kingdom, working on the development of lasers and amplified photonic crystal fiber structures, through the use of distributed amplification.

She is currently an associate professor in the Department of Electrical, Electronic and Communication Engineering of the Public University of Navarre. She is teaching subjects related with Electronics and Projects. She has been Deputy Director of this Department from 2010 to 2011. She has four five-year teaching periods, and she has authored more than 80 publications in journals and conferences, both national and international, related with fiber optics networks, lasers and sensors. She has three six-year research periods.
