Together, we shape the Si-Photonics technology that will define the society of tomorrow.
Imec is a global pioneer in developing integrated silicon photonics technology through its Optical I/O R&D program targeting short-reach optical communications. This technology is successfully offered via wafer-level prototype fabrication services to customers in telecom, datacom, computing, bio-medical, and sensing applications. By leveraging the mature Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) processes used in electronics, high-volume and high-yield Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) can be fabricated at a relatively low cost. Among the major building blocks within a PIC, passive optical components are critical for scaling up the number of channels, while keeping overall optical power low and the circuit area under control. Further technological developments are targeting low-loss silicon photonics (SOI and SiN) in the 200 mm and 300mm platforms at imec. These activities are growing and require the expansion of our team.
As an optical passive designer, you contribute to further development in our silicon photonics technology. You act as the technical interface between cross-collaborating teams of Device design and Layout, process integration, Optical testing, and customers and use their feedback to improve your class of devices. You participate in internal Siicon Photonics (SiPho) development runs on 200mm and 300mm wafers to implement improved component designs and you leverage imec’s automated SiPho test stations to test and validate your new device concepts with fast turnaround times. You will be a member of a highly talented pathfinding team who have expertise in their fields and are always curious.
Your responsibilities include:
We offer you the opportunity to join one of the world’s premier research centers in nanotechnology at its headquarters in Leuven, Belgium. With your talent, passion and expertise, you’ll become part of a team that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will define the society of tomorrow.
We are committed to being an inclusive employer (http://www.imec-int.com/en/careers#diversity) and proud of our open, multicultural, and informal working environment with ample possibilities to take initiative and show responsibility. In everything we do, your future colleagues are guided by the imec values of passion, excellence, connectedness, and integrity. We commit to supporting and guiding you in this process, not only with words but also with tangible actions. Through imec. Academy, 'our corporate university', we actively invest in your development to further your technical and personal growth.
We are aware that your valuable contribution makes imec a top player in its field. Your energy and commitment are therefore appreciated by means of a market appropriate scholarship.
The combination of our widely acclaimed leadership in microchip technology and profound software and ICT expertise is what makes us unique.
