job description

Lightwave circuits using components based on InP materials are the technological basis for communications on the internet. The route to more widespread adoption of this wide bandwidth technology will be through the integration of the components onto a single Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) which will lead not only to dramatic cost reduction but also increased performance. The challenge is to develop the required advanced functionality in a manner which can be mass-produced.
Description

Tyndall currently has an open position for a post-doctoral researcher to join our team in developing advanced PICs. The position covers the design, processing and characterisation of the integration technology and the associated components. The position has special focus on intermixing technology and in developing a platform at extended wavelengths (1.8-2microns) for used in multimode and photonic crystal fibre systems. Performing research on semiconductor photonic devices. Design, processing and characterisation of these devices and circuits. Completing technical reports. Identifying intellectual property associated with research. Presenting results at project meetings and at conferences. Writing papers. Identifying and developing specific research areas. Moving to proposal writing. Applicants will have a PhD in a relevant discipline and proven track record in processing techniques associated with III-V materials and preferably with InP devices. Tyndall has state-of-the-art semiconductor epitaxy and fabrication facilities to permit the development of the new ideas the researcher will bring. S/he should have competence in the design and characterisation of devices for use in telecommunications. It is important that the candidate has an ability to work in a team environment while establishing a leading position in integration technology and circuits. The successful candidate will be highly motivated with excellent organizational and communications skills. This position offers the opportunity to work across the ‘atoms to systems’ spectrum leading to leading edge scientific and commercially relevant technology.
