Research Associate for Information Processing with Optical Neural Networks | wiss. Mitarbeiterin bzw. Mitarbeiter (m/w/d) Informationsverarbeitung mit optischen neuronalen Netz

Job Summary

This Research Associate position at TU Dresden focuses on cutting-edge research in information processing using optical neural networks, specifically within the framework of a Reinhart Koselleck Excellence Project. The role involves investigating the physical transmission behavior of multimode fibers with novel diffractive multiplexers using Deep Learning, aiming for real-time, energy-efficient channel multiplexing. Day-to-day tasks include characterizing multimode optical fiber transmission, conducting experimental and simulated optical computing studies, and realizing diffractive optical elements for various multiplexing techniques. The ideal candidate will have a strong academic background in physics or electrical engineering, proficiency in English, and an interest in interdisciplinary collaboration. This is an exciting opportunity for scientific qualification, including a doctorate or habilitation, in a highly innovative and award-winning research environment.
