Research Fellow in Ultra High Speed Microwave Photonic Integrated Circuits

2 months ago


London, United Kingdom UCL Eastman Dental Institute Full time

About the role

The Research Fellow will work on modulator design and develop the optical phase lock loop demonstrator. This will include using software packages such as CST studio, and laboratory work for fully testing the OPLL performances.

The Research Fellow will also work on the characterization of the PATTERN devices at high frequency and develop the wireless transmission THz system. It will involve experimental characterization using probe stations and network analysers and design a > Gb/s wireless transmission experiment.

The main duty of the post is producing new research around photonic integrated circuit and photonic system. This will include both simulation work in particular high frequency designs and experimental work through characterization and experimental system demonstrations.

The role is available from 1st January until 31st August in the first instance. Further funding to support the post may be available.

About you

Applicants should have a PhD degree (or about to submit) in Electronic Engineering or a related field (Physics, Computer Science). A track record of high level research in Photonic systems and devices is essential, as is knowledge of wireless transmission systems and/or phase lock loops. Excellent working knowledge of a range of software including CST Studio, COMSOL Multiphysics and Lumerical is also required. Proven track record of grant publications is desirable.

If the successful candidate has not yet been awarded their PhD, appointment will be made as a Research Assistant (Grade 6B). Payment at Grade 7 will be backdated to the date of final submission of the PhD thesis including corrections, once the PhD has been awarded. The salary scale for Research Assistant (Grade 6B), point 25-28 is £38, - £41, per annum, inclusive of London Allowance.
