Characterization Expert Photonics

Join VeroTech as a Characterization Expert for active visible integrated photonics, where you'll play a pivotal role in an internal research project. Engage in advanced measurements of integrated photonic circuits, specifically for qubit control, and be an integral part of our innovative team by providing weekly progress reports.

About the role

As a Characterization Expert, you will lead the spectral and advanced modulator characterization of photonic circuits, supporting large-scale research projects aimed at technological breakthroughs. Your contributions will be critical in pushing the boundaries of qubit control using photonics.

Key responsibilities

• Perform spectral characterization of passive photonic components, including waveguides, gratings, and ring resonators.

• Conduct advanced modulator characterization, measuring key parameters such as VpiL, rise and fall times using pulsed RF signals and oscilloscopes, and S11/S21 scattering parameters.

• Analyze sideband generation through heterodyne detection techniques.

• Carry out phase noise characterization and extract the modulator-induced noise contribution.

What we're looking for

We're seeking a proven expert with experience in active integrated photonics and RF probing of photonic integrated circuits (PICs).

• Extensive experience with vertical/horizontal coupling and spectral characterization.

• Proficiency with VNA and RF probing for S11/S21 measurements and phase noise analysis.

• Strong skills in setup automation using Python and handling of RF-related equipment.

• Ability to generate detailed reports and communicate technical data effectively.

• Self-motivated to manage lab operations and coordinate with equipment manufacturers.
