The group of Alberto Amo at PhLAM laboratory (CNRS / University of Lille) has a PhD position opening in Floquet topological photonics (experimental). The PhD thesis is part of the ERC EmergenTopo project and aims at studying linear and nonlinear topological phases in time modulated synthetic lattices. More information about the project can be found in the application website.
According to the job advertisement, the PhD project will broadly study fractal lattices and photon-photon interaction effects in coupled optical fibers, building on the group's recent work published in Physical Review Letters. This work falls within the emerging research direction of synthetic dimensions in photonics, which uses spatial or periodic modulations to small systems of a few coupled resonators or waveguides to emulate higher-dimensional lattices. There are already several reviews on this topic, including "Synthetic dimension in photonics", "Topological quantum matter in synthetic dimensions", and "Topological photonics in synthetic dimensions".
Application deadline: 5th May 2023.
Starting date: 1st October 2023
