Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join our research team at the University of Twente. The successful candidate will work on laser-assisted techniques to manipulate optical elements on a microscopic scale, helping in the assembly of photonic chips.

Background

Coupling light from optical fibers to integrated waveguides, as well as coupling light from optical chip to optical chip, is a challenge in the mass-production of photonic integrated circuitry. In this project, laser-assisted methods are developed to assist techniques that facilitate fiber-to-chip and chip-to-chip communication.

Your Challenge

Photonic chips are essential for modern telecommunications, sensing, or computing, and integration of those systems is a key factor in making these systems more affordable and portable. While the fabrication of photonic integrated chips advances rapidly, the interface between these chips and fiber optics or free-space optics is still limiting the cost and efficiency of these systems. We expect that laser-based methods can greatly increase speed and reliability of assembly of these photonic systems.

Responsibilities
  • Work with pulsed laser systems to manipulate optical elements on a microscopic scale, helping in the assembly of photonic chips.
  • Study the interaction of laser light and optical materials.
  • Analyze the modified material with the help of microscopic and other methods.
  • Closely collaborate with researchers in other groups at the University of Twente and the industrial partners in the project.
Requirements
  • Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Photonics, Materials Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
  • Good knowledge of fundamental aspects of laser-material processing.
  • Experience in using a range of technologies/techniques for surface characterization.
  • Ability to work in a laboratory environment and undertake experimental research.
  • Good knowledge of (numerical) modeling.
  • Excellent analysis skills and an analytical mindset, as well as excellent communication skills, including written.
  • English language proficiency.
What We Offer
  • A four-year full-time PhD position.
  • A stimulating, modern research environment with world-class research facilities.
  • Excellent mentorship and a stimulating research environment to accelerate your further professional and personal growth.
  • A starting salary of € 2.770,- gross per month in the first year and increasing to € 3.539,- gross per month in the fourth year.
  • An annual holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary, and an annual year-end bonus of 8.3%.
  • A solid pension scheme.
  • Minimum of 40 leave days per annual year in case of full-time employment.
