Description of the Team/Project

This internship offers you the opportunity to join a team dedicated to designing and developing ultra-bright single-photon sources. The project focuses on fabricating innovative optical cavity designs for next-generation single-photon sources. As an intern, you will work in the C2N and IPVF cleanrooms, assisting the team in developing new fabrication recipes for micro-cavities. Your contributions will directly influence the research strategy for next-generation devices and advance the field of single-photon sources. Candidates should have a fundamental understanding of nano/micro processing techniques such as thin-film deposition, lithography, and etching. Experience in electrical, mechanical, or optical characterization of nano- or micro-devices is also desirable. Candidates may commence the internship starting in February, with flexible start dates available thereafter to accommodate individual circumstances.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Conceptualize and perform numerical simulations of the mechanical and optical properties of micro-cavities. 

• Develop and refine fabrication recipes for constructing high-performance cavities. 

• Identify critical fabrication steps that influence device performance and propose improvements. 

• Design, assemble, and operate custom experimental setups for device characterization. 

• Maintain systematic documentation of findings and report results effectively.
