[:en]The advancement of microfabrication technologies has triggered a revolution in the design of optical devices since it is now possible to produce systems with complex functionality on a single chip. Just as the advent of integrated electronic circuits enabled the widespread use of electronics, the development of integrated optics, especially silicon photonics, can reduce substantially the cost of advanced photonic devices. These systems will find applications in telecommunications, medicine, life and environmental sciences.<\/p>\n
Many challenges remain to be solved to fully exploit the potential of integrated photonic systems, which is why Professor M\u00e9nard is looking for motivated PhD and masters students wishing to innovate in a fast-growing sector. You will have the opportunity to work on advanced research projects and also on developments in collaboration with industry. Descriptions of current projects are available here in the photonics section. Our research group is actively collaborating with neighboring institutions and is active in the most important associations in the field so you will be able to expand your network of contacts.<\/p>\n
Interested individuals trained in microelectronic engineering, electrical engineering, engineering physics or physics are encouraged to submit their resume to Professor M\u00e9nard at (menard.michael@uqam.ca).[:fr]L\u2019avancement des technologies de microfabrication a d\u00e9clench\u00e9 une r\u00e9volution dans la conception des dispositifs optiques puisqu\u2019il est aujourd\u2019hui possible de fabriquer des syst\u00e8mes avec des fonctionnalit\u00e9s complexes sur une seule puce. Tout comme l\u2019av\u00e8nement des circuits \u00e9lectroniques int\u00e9gr\u00e9s a permis leur utilisation \u00e0 grande \u00e9chelle, le d\u00e9veloppement de l\u2019optique int\u00e9gr\u00e9e, particuli\u00e8rement la photonique sur silicium, permettra de rendre accessible des dispositifs photoniques avanc\u00e9s. Ces syst\u00e8mes auront entre autres des applications en t\u00e9l\u00e9communication, en m\u00e9dicine, dans les sciences de la vie et de l\u2019environnement.<\/p>\n
De nombreux d\u00e9fis restent encore \u00e0 r\u00e9soudre pour exploiter pleinement le potentiel des syst\u00e8mes photoniques int\u00e9gr\u00e9s, c\u2019est pourquoi le Professeur M\u00e9nard est \u00e0 la recherche d\u2019\u00e9tudiants de ma\u00eetrise et de doctorat motiv\u00e9s d\u00e9sirant innover dans un domaine en forte croissance. Vous aurez l\u2019opportunit\u00e9 de travailler autant sur des projets de recherche de pointe que sur des d\u00e9veloppements fait en collaboration avec l\u2019industrie. La description des projets en cours est disponible ici sous la rubrique photonique. Notre groupe de recherche collabore activement avec les institutions environnantes et il est actif dans les plus important regroupements du domaine donc vous serez en mesure de d\u00e9velopper votre r\u00e9seau de contacts.<\/p>\n
Les personnes int\u00e9ress\u00e9es ayant une formation en g\u00e9nie micro\u00e9lectronique, g\u00e9nie \u00e9lectrique, g\u00e9nie physique ou en physique sont encourag\u00e9es \u00e0 soumettre un C.V. au Professeur M\u00e9nard \u00e0 menard.michael@uqam.ca.[:]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
