Official Name:PhD scholarships in Semiconductor Nanostructures for Extreme Dielectric Confinement of Light
Donor/University NAME:Technical University of Denmark
Deadline: 1 September 2020
Description:DTU Fotonik – Department of Photonics Engineering – at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) is seeking ambitious and talented candidates for two PhD positions within the newly established research center NanoPhoton – Center for Nanophotonics – which is dedicated to exploring new possibilities for Extreme Dielectric Confinement (EDC) of light in semiconductors to length scales much smaller than the diffraction limit. NanoPhoton addresses a range of research disciplines in collaboration between several departments at DTU, enabled by a grant from the Danish National Research Foundation.
The two PhD projects are concerned with fabrication and characterization of EDC nanostructures and their operation as photodetectors and lasers. The majority of the project will be carried out in our state-of-the-art clean room facilities and optical laboratories, where you will work with dedication in order to break the current limits of nanophotonic integration.Candidates are invited to apply for one or both of the following projects:
1- III-V semiconductor nanostructures for Extreme Dielectric Confinement of Light:
Design, fabricate and characterize advanced Indium Phosphide EDC nanostructures with embedded layers of active quantum wells and quantum dots.
2- Silicon nanostructures for Extreme Dielectric Confinement of Light:
Development of a novel photodetector based on two-photon-absorption in silicon and integration with field effect transistor for next generation on-chip interconnects.Opportunity Focus Areas:
Technology
Electrical Engineering
