Jun Sakaguchi

Jun Sakaguchi (M’10) received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in the field of high-energy physics from the University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan, in 1998, 2000, and 2003, respectively. He received the next Ph.D. degree in electronics engineering from University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan, in 2008 after working on SOA-based wavelength converters. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Ikoma, Japan, from 2008 to 2010, where he worked for modeling, design, characterization, and demonstration of VCSEL-based high-speed optical buffer memories. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Tokyo, Japan, from 2010 to 2014, where he worked for large-scale space division multiplexed fiber-optic communication systems, high-coherency lightwave distribution, a special kind of real-time digital signal processing and applications of optical frequency comb. Since 2014, he has been a permanent staff at the NICT. He has published 80 papers in refereed English journals and international conferences. Dr. Sakaguchi is a member of the IEEE Photonics Society.
