Vacancies Complex Photonic Systems

In modern science, international success in science is achieved through teamwork. Using the combined talents, ambitions and creativity of our team members we can tackle almost any challenge. Are you looking for a Ph.D. studentship in an ambitious, curious, creative and hard working team environment? Then read on!

We have vacancies in our labs at the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology at the University of Twente in Enschede (The Netherlands), please check back for new vacancies soon!

About the group:
The Complex Photonic Systems (COPS) Chair strives to perform world-class research on light propagation and spontaneous emission in photonic crystals. We combine advanced optical experiments with the development of photonic nanostructures and with a deep theoretical understanding of the properties of light. In 2004 we have pioneered experiments wherein both the direction and time of light emission are controlled, we have been the first to optically switch photonic band gaps at ultrafast times, in 2007, and we have pioneered the focusing of light through opaque lenses with wavefront modulation in 2008. Our curiosity-driven research is of interest to several industrial partners, and to applications in biophysics. Our group's research is performed in the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology, University of Twente, as part of the new Strategic Research Orientation “Applied Nanophotonics”.
