Chemistry & Physics (Science & Technology) The Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), part of the Agency for Science, Technology, and Research (A*STAR), is looking for a research scientist to join the development of an integrated quantum photonics platform, with a focus on integrated single-photon detectors. The scientist will be heavily involved in developing the device designs, building up our opto-electronics testing capabilities, and eventual device packaging and deployment. This work will lead to exciting applications in cutting-edge technologies such as quantum information processing and photonic computing. The roles of the successful candidate will include : Design and develop photonics-integrated photodetectors and other silicon photonics devices Perform and/or oversee device fabrication processes Design, construct, and automate opto-electronic test stations for device testing Experimentally characterize fabricated devices (bare chips and packaged devices) Design and integrate control circuitry for operating integrated single-photon detector devices Integrate, develop, and test a wider integrated quantum photonics platform Job Requirements : PhD degree in physics or engineering Candidate with relevant PhD training experience are welcome to apply Background in experimental optics and/or electronics Able to independently plan and execute research work Ability to program (especially Python) lab equipment for testing automation Direct experience with photonics/photodetectors (especially avalanche photodetectors) is desirable Familiarity with circuit/PCB design, high-speed electronics, mechanical design, and machining is desirable Ability to communicate and work closely with team members Company information Registration No. T08GB0002C Report this job advert Don't provide your bank or credit card details when applying for jobs.
