Research Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at Monash University, working on the development of photonic circuits for microcombs. This project focuses on the use of self-calibrating photonic chips in various optical systems, including optical communications links, artificial neural networks, and scientific instruments.

As a PhD researcher, you will be trained in photonic chip design, photonic device characterization, and the use of photonic chips in various systems. You will also have the opportunity to work with local and international academics and industry partners, including COMBS partners NBN Co. and Infinera/Nokia.

The successful candidate will have a strong background in physics, electrical engineering, or a related discipline, and will be able to demonstrate a high level of academic achievement. The PhD scholarship is $35,013 p.a. (tax-free), with top-ups potentially available.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop photonic circuits for microcombs
  • Characterize photonic devices and systems
  • Collaborate with local and international academics and industry partners

Requirements:

  • PhD in physics, electrical engineering, or a related discipline
  • Strong background in photonic chip design and characterization
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills

How to Apply:

Please submit your application through the online form. Domestic (Aus/NZ citizens & permanent resident/visa) applications are preferred before October 15, 2024.
