What We Are Looking For
The Nano-Optics and Advanced Health-Sensing (NOAHS) Lab at Baylor University is looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate who will focus on the research of integrated photonics. The Postdoc will have the opportunity to collaborate with Intel Corp. for the development of ultra-low voltage, high bandwidth silicon micro ring modulators driven by transparent conductive oxides. The position is renewable each year based on performance and availability of continued funding. Responsibilities of this position include but are not limited to:
- Design of high-speed optical modulators that will be fabricated by Intel 300 mm SOI wafer process or other commercial photonic integrated circuit shuttles
- Fabrication of photonic devices and subsystems using electron beam lithography, sputtering, etching, atomic layer deposition, and evaporation
- Characterization of high-speed optoelectronic devices using vector network analyzer, arbitrary wave generator and digital communication analyzer
- Mentoring PhD students and collaborate with industrial partners
- Participate in the preparation and writing of journal manuscripts and conference papers, presentations, and/or posters.
Required Documents
Candidates must submit along with their application a CV, cover letter, three professional references, and a statement of research. These may be uploaded during the application process.
