Offer Description
Develop innovative Photonic ICs for applications in Quantum Photonics
What you will do
Imec is a partner of the EU funded project QuPilot , which aims to accelerate the time-to-market of European industrial innovation in quantum technology by setting up a series of pilot lines addressing several major technology platforms, including a photonics platform. One of the objectives is to extend existing Photonic IC platforms with building blocks specifically geared for applications in quantum communication, quantum sensing and quantum computing.
You will be responsible for:
- The design of new building blocks in imec’s existing Silicon and Silicon Nitride PIC platforms, and translating them in suitable mask files.
- Improving existing heterogeneous integration processes, for realizing advanced electro-optic modulators and switches on imec’s Silicon and Silicon Nitride PIC platforms.
- Characterizing the fabricated devices.
- Attending project meetings and progress reporting.
You will work in the Photonic Research Group, an associate lab of imec at Ghent University.
