Crynodeb
The University of Southampton is committed to excellence in all we do, applying our insights and inventiveness to solve the most complex societal and environmental challenges. As a world-leading, research-intensive university, with a strong and high-quality educational offering, we are renowned for our innovation and enterprise and are within the top 1% of universities worldwide.
Apply to be part of a Horizon Europe Pathfinder science-to-technology breakthrough, targeting a paradigm shift in fabricating a novel optically active crystal – rare-earth (RE) doped sapphire (REDS). The EIC-funded project’s objective is to enhance laser technology performance through creating functionalised REDS thin-disks as new optical components for innovative-lasers applications. We’re looking for an enthusiastic postdoctoral fellow to be part of our team to advance our Rapid Pulsed Laser Deposition (RPLD) technology and ultimately develop a new class of active mirror to underpin the next generation of thin-disk lasers.
What You’ll Do:
innovate: develop scalable RPLD processes to fabricate REDS active mirrors
collaborate: work with a dynamic team and engage in interdisciplinary research
experiment: gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge physical-vapour-deposition fabrication techniques, lasers, and honing your practical skills
explore: help develop a deeper understanding of how to produce a high-quality REDS crystals and scale to practical dimensions.
We’re seeking a capable and resourceful postdoctoral candidate eager to dive into laboratory work to develop RPLD methods to create these novel optically active sapphire elements. You’ll have a solid grounding in physical sciences with an eagerness to understand and solve key challenges.
In this project you'll have access to:
state-of-the-art facilities: access to top-tier resources, cleanrooms, and materials-characterisation suites
interdisciplinary research: collaborate with experts within the university and beyond
international collaboration: work closely with consortium partners across Europe towards ambitious project goals.
For informal enquiries, please write to Dr Jacob Mackenzie (jim@soton.ac.uk).
