Senior III-V Photonic Modulator Engineer

Imec India Private Limited; Belgique; Sur place; EUR 90 000 - 110 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

IMEC in Leuven, Belgium is seeking an experienced III-V Active Photonic Device Expert to drive design and validation of high-speed electro-absorption modulators integrated with silicon-photonics.

You will combine semiconductor physics, device modelling, and fabrication-aware optimisation, collaborating across epitaxy, integration, and characterization to translate concepts into validated platform solutions.

Qualifications

• PhD in electrical engineering, photonics, applied physics, semiconductor physics or closely related field.
• At least 3 years hands-on experience with III-V photonic devices.
• Experience with waveguide-integrated III-V modulators or photodetectors on silicon-photonics platforms.
• Strong understanding of semiconductor physics, QCSE, heterostructures and device operation.

Responsabilités

• Design and optimise waveguide-integrated III-V active photonic devices, high-speed modulators.
• Engineer multi-quantum-well heterostructures for target wavelength and speed.
• Model band structure, QCSE, carrier transport, optical absorption and E-field distribution.
• Develop complete electro-optical device models including geometry, capacitance and RS.
• Design III-V integration with silicon/silicon-nitride waveguides and optimize coupling.
• Incorporate epitaxial, process, thermal and manufacturing constraints into designs.
• Translate concepts into layouts and test structures; correlate simulations with measurements.
• Collaborate across epitaxy, integration, process, characterisation, circuits and systems.
