PhD Position on “Integrated Photonics, Electronic-Photonic Co-Design/Integration”
100%, Zurich, fixed-term
print Drucken
The Integrated Devices, Electronics, And Systems (IDEAS) Group of ETH Zurich invites applications for one PhD position
in the field of integrated photonics for next-generation communication, sensing, such as datacenter, 5G/6G, Light
Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and biomedical applications.
This PhD position focuses on the designs, implementations, and demonstrations of integrated circuit with new circuit
topologies and system architectures for integrated electronics/photonics.
Potential topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Optical transceiver for next generation datacenter communication
- Optical phased array for free-space optical communication and sensing
- Electronic/photonic co-designs
- Compound semiconductor circuit designs and co-integration with photonics
- Microwave-photonics for 6G communication
- Integrated photonics for bioelectronics and biosensors
Project background
The ETH IDEAS Group, led by Prof. Hua Wang, is a world-leading research group in the field of integrated circuits and
systems for next-generation wireless communication, sensing, and various emerging technology applications. Our current
and past PhD students regularly publish at flagship conferences and journals and have found carrier opportunities both
in top universities and industry.
The ETH IDEAS Group is part of the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (D-ITET). More
information can be found on the group website.
These PhD positions are jointly funded by EU grants, Swiss national grants, as well as ETH Zurich internal funding.
The research involves close collaborations with industry and university groups in Switzerland, EU, and US.
