Development of Novel Optical Fibres for Fibre Lasers
Silica Fibre Fabrication Group, Optoelectronics Research Centre
A Research Fellow position is available for a highly motivated and talented researcher with a strong interest in optical fibre technology to work on the UK’s Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) funded Programme Grant, HiPPo (Smart Fibre optic High-power Photonics), and will involve collaboration with a wide range of researchers at the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) and external academic and industrial partners. A key goal of the project is to develop novel optical fibres and fibre materials suitable for the power scaling of fibre lasers. This project will make strong use of the fibre fabrication facilities at the ORC and your skills should reflect this, for example through strong practical laboratory experience.
Applicants should have a PhD (or equivalent professional qualifications and experience) in Physics/Chemistry/Materials Science/Engineering and excellent experimental skills. Knowledge and hands-on experience in active-doped silica-based fibre fabrication, spectroscopic characterisation of doped fibres, and the construction and testing of fibre lasers and amplifiers would be beneficial for this position. You must have proven skills in the critical evaluation and interpretation of data and of working as part of a collaborative research team.
The appointment will commence as soon as possible. The initial appointment will be until 28th February 2028 with the potential for further extension beyond this.
For informal inquiries about this post, please contact Prof. Jayanta Sahu (jks@orc.soton.ac.uk)
As a university, we aim to create an environment where everyone can thrive and are proactive in fostering a culture of inclusion, diversity, respect and equality of opportunity. We believe that we can only truly meet our objectives if we are reflective of society, so we are passionate about creating a working environment in which you are free to bring your whole self to work. With a generous holiday allowance as well as additional university closure days, we are committed to supporting our staff and students and are open to a flexible working approach.
Apply by 11.59 pm GMT on the closing date. For assistance contact Recruitment on +44(0)2380 592750 or recruitment@soton.ac.uk quoting the job number.
