THE PROJECT
Photonic integration is emerging as a new standard for providing cost effective and high-performance miniaturized optical systems enables system designers and manufacturers to combine various optical devices into a single package, thereby offering significant by the demand for higher data volumes and speeds by the very competitive fields using information and Technology (IT) emerging at an excepcional rate. However, full exploitation of PIC based techonologies still present formidable challenges, in the sector is facing an increased need of well-trained multidisciplinary scientist with specific and technical skills with are needed to tackle the development of high performing in PICs.
EDIFY IS LOOKING FOR YOU
EDIFY aims at providing cutting-edge training to young researchers in the emerging field of integrated photonics and its translation into circuit design, fabrication and commercialization.
The roles of different collaborators and researchers in EDIFY strive to comply with EC communication 21784 (Women and Science – Excellence and Innovation) and aim for a balanced level of participation between men and women in the project.
