Postdoc in Magneto-Photonics: Waveguides & Circulators

CNRS - National Center for Scientific Research; France; On-site; EUR 40,000 - 55,000; Full time

Job summary

CNRS – Centre de Nanosciences et de Nanotechnologies in France seeks a postdoctoral researcher to lead the static characterisation of magneto-optical waveguides and circulators, as part of the European CIRCULIGHT project. You will characterise components, fabricate basic parts, and contribute to design and simulations for device interpretation.

You will attend project meetings, liaise with European partners, and contribute to communicating results and publications.

Qualifications

• Education in optics/photonics.
• Knowledge of plasmonics and possibly magneto-optics.
• Good knowledge of optical characterization and optical simulation (FDTD).
• Experience in nanotechnology (clean room work) is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Characterisation of magneto-optical components.
• Fabrication of basic components for the device.
• Perform optical simulations for device design and interpretation of experiments.
• Analyse and interpret results; draft scientific articles.
• Participate in project meetings and liaise with partners.
