Recruitment

PhD studentships and post-doctoral positions are available within the Photon-Mediated Phenomena Network.

The Photon-Mediated Phenomena Network is a Research Training Network established under the European Commission's Fifth Framework Programme. Started in August 2002 and running for 4 years, the Network has a commitment to training young researchers in semiconductor opto-electronics and photonics. The Network is comprised of 7 teams from across Europe, working in the following areas:

Cardiff Team: Photon-mediated interactions of quantum dots & optics of semiconductor microcavities. Theory & Experiment Prof. A. L. Ivanov
Cambridge Team: Bose-Einstein condensation of microcavity polaritons & optics of disordered semiconductors. Theory Prof. P. Littlewood
Grenoble Team: Optics of semiconductor microcavities. Experiment Dr. Le Si Dang
Paderborn Team: Fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures. Instrumentation Dr. D. Schikora
Dortmund Team: Photonic dots & semiconductor quantum dots. Experiment Prof. U. Woggon
Crete Team: Electronic and photonic characterisation of semiconductor nanostructures. Instrumentation Prof. G. Kiriakidis
Lund Team: Optics of single quantum dots. Experiment & Theory Dr. M-E. Pistol

Appointment of young researchers within the Network is governed by rules established by the European Commission under the Fifth Framework Programme. Following are restrictions on who may be appointed:

35 years or younger:
Must be 35 years or younger at the time of appointment. Allowance is made for compulsory military or civil service, or child care.
National or Member of Associated States or resided in Community for at least 5 years immediately prior to appointment:
Details of the Associated States are available from http://www.cordis.lu/fp5/management/particip/v-gfpbox4.htm.
Not a national of country in which participant is based:
Researchers cannot be a Member or National of the country in which the team is based. For example, a person of French nationality could be appointed to work with any team other than the Grenoble team.
Not carried out their normal activities in country in which participant is based for >12 of previous 24 months:
Similar to above, researchers cannot have lived in the country in which the team is based for more than 1 year in the previous 2 years.

Below are details of the pre-doctoral and post-doctoral young researchers that will be financed by the Network:
