.Post-doctoral position in integrated photonics designICFO is offering postdoctoral positions to well-qualified, highly motivated, and dynamic young scientists who wish to enhance their scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment. The successful candidates will be joining the Optoelectronics group led by Prof. Dr. Valerio Pruneri. The group has experience in the study and development of new advanced materials, devices, and systems for information and communication technologies, particularly displays, image sensors, and secure communications. The main drive of the group is to carry out applied research bridging academia and industry by developing fundamental ideas with great potential for revolutionizing future photonic products. Candidates will work on projects related to classical and quantum photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and must have experience in the design, simulation, characterization, or packaging of PICs. The aim is to develop next-generation PIC-based technologies, ranging from classical photonic processing to quantum communication, sensing, and metrology. On-chip quantum key distribution transmitters, entangled pair sources, and single photon sources are also important topics in the group. The group is currently involved in several European projects. This project is funded by MCIN/AEI and by the European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR PCI2022-132954 within the QuantERA II Programme, receiving funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020. Candidates must hold an internationally-recognized Ph.D.-equivalent degree (or evidence of its completion in the nearest future) preferably in Physics, Photonics, or Engineering. The candidate should have a proven track record in PIC simulation, fabrication, characterization, or packaging. A good level of research independence and project management is expected. Experience in integrated quantum photonics adds value to the application. ICFO is an equal opportunity employer selecting candidates exclusively on merit and potential based on submitted application material. No restrictions related to disabilities, citizenship, or gender apply to ICFO positions. ICFO abides by the principles of openness, efficiency, transparency, supportiveness, and international comparability as stated in the European Charter for Researchers and the European Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. Salaries for ICFO Postdoctoral positions are assigned by the Selection Committee based on experience, seniority, assigned tasks, and responsibilities within the group. Standard salaries range from a lower level aligned with national Ramon-y-Cajal fellowships to higher levels aligned with Marie Sklodowska-Curie individual fellowships. The contract is offered for a period of 1 year, renewable. Additionally, a family allowance is available on request and after corresponding approval for people with family charges in the terms described in the corresponding policy
