PhD position in Precision metrology of millimeterwave signals using integrated photonics — EPFL

EPFL · Lausanne (VD)
Categoria: Ricerca Contratto: full-time Salario: CHF 49'500 - 75'000

Role overview

Mission The Hybrid Photonics Laboratory at EPFL is seeking for talented and motivated candidates to work in the field of Integrated Photonics for precision metrology of high-quality electronic signals at elevated frequencies beyond 100 GHz.

This is a part of a larger consortium within the National Center for Competence in Research ( NCCR Precision ) .

Millimeterwave and terahertz oscillators are critical components in accessing and preparing in Rydberg states ( https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.82.1831 ) , driving and read-out of high-temperature superconducting qubits ( https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.11170 ) , or for studying low-energy excitations, including phonons, plasmons, or superconducting phenomena.
