Postdoc
Nonlinear nanophotonicsJob profile: The candidate will have to design and model arrays of gold nanoantennas in order to
fabricate them in clean room. He/She will have to perform the nonlinear experiments to quantify the
hot electron dynamics and their related saturable absorption in the fabricated devices (timescale,
energy threshold…) at telecom wavelengths. Strong skills in nanophotonics and nonlinear optics are
required. A background in fiber laser dynamics or in physics of ultrafast lasers could be valuable.

NONLINEAR FIBER OPTICS FOR ULTRAFAST SIGNAL PROCESSING
One year Postdoctoral Fellow position funded by the Region Bourgogne/Franche-Comté is opened at the SLCO group in the context of the Laboratory of Excellence Action.
The research is related to the use of nonlinear fiber optics for all-optical ultrafast signal processing. In particular, the position aims at exploring new effects related to nonlinear temporal
and spectral pulse shaping, wavelength conversion and application of dispersion managed fibers.
Studies investigating the impact of partially coherent waves will also be initiated. Research will rely on state-of-the-art testbeds devoted to high-speed optical telecommunications. Proof of principle experiments dealing with signals at 10 and 40 Gbps will be carried-out. Other experiments dealing nonlinear effects affecting fiber amplification will also be undertaken.
The candidate must have a Ph.D in Physics or a related discipline and published research. The applicant must be an experimentalist with a solid background in at least two of these fields : fiber
optics, nonlinear optics, optical telecommunications or picosecond temporal and spectral pulse characterization. Good skills in numerical simulations will be appreciated.
Good knowledge of spoken and written English or/and French is mandatory.
