About this position

This research opportunity at the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory in Adelphi, Maryland focuses on integrated optics and RF photonics for communication systems and phased array antenna control. The project investigates how sophisticated functionality can be realized through monolithic integration of waveguide couplers, delay lines, modulators, detectors, and related opto-electronic components.

The work centers on the design, fabrication, and characterization of novel waveguide architectures and integrated photonic devices. A major theme is the development of InP-based photonic integrated circuits using selective area epitaxial growth, with monolithically integrated couplers, splitters, amplifiers, and modulators. The project also explores photonic bandgap devices, micro-resonator devices, and optical MEMS as building blocks for advanced RF photonic systems.

The research aims to create broadband devices and integration technologies that support communication (de)multiplexing and beamforming for microwave phased array antennas. The stated objective is to demonstrate a monolithic module capable of performing sophisticated functionality for RF photonic systems.

The listed ARL advisor for this opportunity is Weimin Zhou, within the Sensors and Electron Devices Directorate (SEDD). SEDD is described as the Army’s principal center for research and development in the electromagnetic spectrum, with broad activity in sensors, electron devices, and related materials and technologies.

The posting is also framed within the ARL Research Associateship Program (ARL-RAP), which brings in scientists and engineers from academia and industry to work on research areas relevant to Army technology needs.
