Jeanne Treuttel

Jeanne Treuttel received the Ph.D. degree in instrumentation for astronomy and astrophysics from the Observatory of Paris and Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES), Paris, France, in 2011. In 2010, she joined permanently the Observatory of Paris, as an Engineering Scientist, and has designed state-of-the-art III-V Schottky mixers and multipliers. She is strongly associated with the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, U.K. In 2015, she received a NASA Postdoctoral Fellowship grant to work at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory on the development of the first all-solid-state 2 THz heterodyne receiver with the JPL-MDL Schottky technology. Back at Observatoire de Paris PSL in 2018, she endorsed the role of System Engineer for the Submillimeter Wave Instrument 1200 GHz front-end as a major (French) contribution to the Jupiter JUICE-L1 ESA mission. She is working in close partnership with CNRS-Centre de Nanostructures et Nanotechnologies and Institut d'Electronique de Microélectronique et de Nanotechnologie for the development of Schottky diode processes and their qualification for operational space instrumentation up to several THz. Her current research interests are in the design of integrated THz electronics MMIC and systems for radio astronomy and planetary science space missions.
