Cryogenic Photonics Researcher: Fiber-Optic Waveguide at 4K

Grenoble INP - Institute of Engineering; France; Presencial; EUR 28.000 - 39.000; A tiempo parcial

Descripción de la vacante

Grenoble INP - Institute of Engineering invites applications for a First Stage Researcher (Postdoc) in Electronic Engineering. The project focuses on evaluating fiber optic connectors on cryostats, under cryogenic conditions, and at partner facilities (CEA-Leti).

The role includes designing and performing optical tests, measuring losses versus temperature from ambient to 4 K, and studying stability under repeated cooling, plus exploring complex optical functions such as spirals and Mach-Zehnder

Formación

• PhD or equivalent in Electronic Engineering or related field.
• Strong knowledge of integrated photonics.
• Experience with cleanroom fabrication or cryogenics.

Responsabilidades

• Test and optimize the performance of a connection between optical fibers and a glass waveguide at cryogenic temperatures (around 4K) in a laboratory cryostat.
• Measure the evolution of optical losses in the fiber-optic component as a function of temperature (from ambient to 4K).
• Study the stability of the fiber-optic component under repeated cooling cycles.
• Study the behavior of more complex optical functions as a function of temperature (e.g., spirals, Mach-Zehnder interferometers, phasars...).
