Ph.D. openings
PhD - Ultrafast laser interaction for chemical and topological functionalization of surfaces
Start: January 2024
Application deadline: 30th September 2023
Location: Split time between the Laboratoire Hubert Curien (Université Jean Monnet - UJM, St-Etienne), and the Laboratoire Georges Friedel (École des Mines de Saint-Étienne), with regular mobilities at the University of Ottawa's Photonics Research Centre.
Interested candidates should send a CV and a cover letter to both:
- Florent Bourquard, Associate Professor florent.bourquard @ univ-st-etienne.fr
- Florence Garrelie, Full Professor florence.garrelie @ univ-st-etienne.fr
The goal of this work is to exploit ultrafast laser-matter interaction to generate new surface functionalization by not only creating topographical texturation but also by modifying and controlling the chemical state of the irradiated substrate, in particular oxidation processes and stoichiometry modifications in the case of alloys.

PhD - Vanadium Dioxide-Based Films for Randomizing Photonic Emission and Absorption of Integrated Circuits
Start: October 2023
Application deadline: 30th April 2023
Location: Laboratoire Hubert Curien, Université Jean Monnet (UJM), St-Etienne, France. (Both Laser-Matter Interaction + SESAM teams)
Interested candidates should send a CV to both:
- Florent Bourquard, Associate Professor florent.bourquard @ univ-st-etienne.fr
- Lilian Bossuet, Professor lilian.bossuet @ univ-st-etienne.fr
The goal is to develop a smart coating that will prevent exploiting the photonic emission and absorption from integrated circuits, effectively limiting the use of optical techniques to reverse-engineer microchips or access the stored secret data.
