About this position
This postdoctoral project focuses on the periodic structuring of optomechanical waveguides. The research combines optical and mechanical simulation with simplified physics-based modelling to design waveguides that maximize coupling efficiency between optical and mechanical modes.
The successful candidate will work on developing and optimizing simulation tools for the design of periodic optomechanical waveguides, then use the numerical results together with reduced models to identify optimal dimensions and understand the underlying coupling mechanisms. The project is also framed as a theoretical study of state-of-the-art optomechanical structures, with attention to their operating principles and limits.
The position is hosted in the Silicon Photonics team at the Centre de Nanosciences et de Nanotechnologies (C2N), a joint research unit of CNRS and Université Paris-Saclay. The team works at the forefront of integrated photonics, including silicon photonics, optomechanics, and the development of innovative photonic devices.
The researcher will benefit from a dynamic and international scientific environment with access to first-rate technological infrastructure, including cleanroom nanofabrication platforms and advanced optical characterization equipment. The work is collaborative and includes regular interactions with researchers, engineers, doctoral candidates, and academic partners in the team.
