post-doc position available at the Integrated Optical Systems group

University of Twente

Several post-doc positions are available at the Integrated Optical Systems group of the University of Twente, associated to the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology. The post-doc will become part of a team working on the development of low-loss sputtered materials for Integrated Photonics. In particular, materials for fast modulation, electronic-photonics integration and integrated photonics devices operating in the ultraviolet and mid-infrared will be investigated. The post-doc position will work towards the development of a methodology to achieve high wafer-to-wafer reproducibility of integrated photonics devices with high yield. Project management tasks are also associated to this post, which will prepare the candidate towards a career with more management duties.

The projects comprise modelling of the devices, the development of the fabrication process in the MESA+ Nanolab cleanroom facility, which has all necessary state-of-the-art microfabrication equipment required to carry out this work, and optical characterization in the facilities of the research group.

The projects will leverage our expertise in the development of sputtered optical materials for integrated photonics consolidating our international position in this field. The projects are carried out in collaboration with industrial partners in the framework of several national Growth Funds initiatives (i.e., Photon Delta and Next Gen High Tech).

Your profile

You have a MSc/PhD degree in engineering physics, electrical engineering, materials engineering/science or photonics engineering.

A good background in cleanroom microfabrication, deposition of optical materials and design/simulation of optical devices.

Experimental experience in the optical characterization of integrated optical devices is desirable.

An industrial minded attitude and affinity to management tasks are required.

You can operate in a multidisciplinary multicultural team.

You have proficient oral and written English language skills, and are capable of scientific communication, also towards non-expert partners.

Excellent soft communication skills at all levels are required.

Female candidates and members of minority groups are equally encouraged to apply as we strive for working in a well-balanced inclusive team.

Our offer

a challenging fulltime position in an inspiring multidisciplinary and international environment.

We offer you a full-time position (post-doc).

We provide excellent mentorship in an inspiring research environment, with state-of-the art research facilities.

Professional and personal development programs.

Gross salary ranging from 欧元 3.877,- to 欧元 5.090,- per month.

A green Campus with lots of sports facilities.

Information and application

Please send your application before December 31, 2023 and should include:

A specific description of why you want to apply for one of the post-doc positions and why you are a good match for the team please do not send general application letters.

A detailed CV (resume) with publication list.

An academic transcript of BSc and MSc education.

A high TOEFL score (> 90 or 100) or IELTS score (> 6.5 or 7) is generally required.

For detailed questions, please contact Prof. dr. Sonia M. Garcia-Blanco (s.m.garciablanco@utwente.nl).

About the department

The Integrated Optical Systems group consists in average of 6-7 PhD students, 2-3 MSc students, 2-3 post-docs and several staff members. Our vision is to develop novel materials, devices and integration technologies for Integrated Photonics to solve societal problems. We are part of the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology, which offers advanced characterization and fabrication tools at the nanoscale, as well as a stimulating scientific environment with more than 250 PhD students working on various aspects of nanoscience and technology.

In addition, we are part of a group of around 80 researchers that explore, within the research cluster Applied Nanophotonics (ANP), multiple aspects of modern photonics. These include technologies such as the development of materials, integration technologies, photonic assembly, packaging, and laser processing for applications including quantum optics, control of light scattering, photonics crystals, XUV optics, biomedical imaging, and sensing.

About the organisation

The Faculty of Science & Technology (Technische Natuurwetenschappen, TNW) engages some 700 staff members and 2000 students in education and research on the cutting edge of chemical technology, applied physics and biomedical technology. Our fields of application include sustainable energy, process technology and materials science, nanotechnology and technical medicine. As part of a people-first tech university that aims to shape society, individuals and connections, our faculty works together intensively with industrial partners and researchers in the Netherlands and abroad, and conducts extensive research for external commissioning parties and funders. Our research has a high profile both in the Netherlands and internationally and is strengthened by the many young researchers working on innovative projects with as doctoral candidates and post-docs. It has been accommodated in three multidisciplinary UT research institutes: Mesa+ Institute, TechMed Centre and Digital Society Institute.
