PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Condensed Matter Physics in Netherlands

PhD opportunity in physics/photonics at AMOLF and Utrecht University This PhD project explores how phase transitions can be harnessed for optical information processing . The research focuses on how, near a continuous phase transition, strong susceptibility can amplify weak optical signals and potentially reduce the energy required for operations, while also introducing trade-offs from critical slowing down and fluctuations. The project builds on recent work in a laser-driven optical cavity cont...

PhD opportunity at AMOLF and Utrecht University, Netherlands This PhD project explores phase transitions for optical information processing , with a focus on how critical phenomena can reduce optical energy consumption while balancing speed and accuracy. The research combines photonics , optics , condensed matter physics , nonlinear dynamics , stochastic processes , and materials science . The project will study a laser-driven optical cavity containing a perovskite crystal, building on recent wo...
