Research Fellow in Non-Reciprocal Photonic Integrated Circuits

2 months ago


London, United Kingdom UCL Eastman Dental Institute Full time

About the role

Within the CIRCULIGHT project, UCL will work with researchers in eight other universities, research institutes and companies, to investigate a radically new approach to the integration of non-reciprocal functionality in photonic integrated circuits (PICs). We anticipate that this research will have very high impact, as noted in the section above.

A major part of the UCL work will be to carry out research on the integration of the CIRCULIGHT magneto-bi-plasmonic device elements into the radically new PIC platform that is currently being developed at UCL, based on the epitaxial growth of III-V semiconductor quantum dot structures on silicon. 

UCL leads the CIRCULIGHT work package on “Integrated Circulator Proof of Concept in Systems”, which includes the design and fabrication of a transceiver PIC, together with critical experimental evaluation of its performance.

As the main researcher on the project, the Research Fellow will be expected to make major contributions across the full range of the above activities, in collaboration with our partners.

The post is available immediately until 30th September in the first instance. Further funding to support the post may be available.

About you

Applicants should have a PhD (or about to submit) in Photonics, Electronic / Electrical Engineering, Physics or a closely related field ( Materials Science). A track record of high-level research in photonics, semiconductor devices, or a related discipline is essential, as well as understanding of the principles of optical devices. Candidates should have experience of using optical and electronic test equipment.

Candidates must be willing to travel to meetings with partners in EU countries.

Experience of programming ( MATLAB, Python) and/or relevant technical software packages ( Lumerical, Photon Design, CST Studio, COMSOL) is desirable, as well as practical experience of photonic integrated circuits, optical waveguides, and/or plasmonics.

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. Research Assistant (Grade 6B): point 25-28. Salary range £38, to £41, (inc. London Allowance of £5, pa).
