Greater Adelaide SA, Australia The University of Adelaide Full time

(Level A) $78,544 to $109,307 per annum plus an employer contribution of 17% Superannuation applies.

Fixed-term, full-time position for 3 years.

A highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Researcher - Chemistry or Material Science position is available within the Australian Research Council (ARC) funded Centre of Excellence: The ARC Centre of Excellence in Optical Microcombs for Breakthrough Science (COMBS). Working in the Microcomb science and Technology Theme, the team will work towards the creation of microcombs at new wavelengths, generating ultimately a microcomb platform that covers the full optical spectrum from the ultraviolet to the mid-infrared region for the specific requirements in the other Themes.**- Use knowledge in rare earth doped glasses and high-nonlinearity materials for the glass platform for generating frequency combs at new wavelengths in the UV and mid-infrared spectral regions.

  • Develop fluoride glass compositions providing high transparency and gain at visible and ultraviolet wavelengths and work with collaborators to realise direct laserwritten photonic chips using these materials.
  • Integrate 2D materials with the glass chips for laser modelocking and microcomb broadening and manipulation.
  • Create new interfacing approaches linking doped glass platforms with planar integrated photonics to create new and robust hybrid integrated photonic chip systems.
  • Contribute to other Themes within COMBS


The School of PCES is part of the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology (SET), which is one of three faculties at the University of Adelaide.

SET comprises 12 schools, 21 centres and 5 institutes and is responsible for the needs of over 8,500 students and has an annual budget of $300 million.

The Faculty of SET is responsible for teaching a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programs in disciplines across Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences, Architecture, Biology, Physics, Agriculture, Food and Wine and Animal Science.

It aims to create an innovative agile working environment which is recognised for leadership in teaching, research, and global engagement.


IPAS has an annual research budget of more than $15M p.a., a membership of more than 250 people, and is headquartered in a $100M bespoke research building on the CBD campus of the University of Adelaide.

IPAS has a rare combination of glass science and optical fibre fabrication research facilities and expertise which has enabled the realisation of fibres with unique and novel properties.

IPAS has also a range of optical diagnostic and precision manufacturing equipment including 3D metal and glass printing and a 5-axis CNC mill with ultrasonic mode.

Equally important, IPAS provides strategic grants support, business development support and facility management through a high-performing and professional team.

IPAS works to create new lasers and sensors that stimulate the creation of new industries and improve productivity in existing industries.
