Offer Description
The PHLAM laboratory is a physics research unit based in Lille. Its activities cover optics, photonics, lasers, and atomic and molecular physics. The laboratory conducts both fundamental research and applied work (telecommunications, healthcare, sensors). It is equipped with advanced experimental platforms and collaborates with international academic and industrial partners.
The doctoral student will be supervised by Matteo Conforti and Arnaud Mussot, with weekly meetings dedicated to monitoring scientific progress and defining short-term objectives. More informal discussions will also take place as needed, particularly during intensive phases of numerical development or data analysis. The doctoral student will be fully integrated into the team, participating in group meetings and laboratory seminars
Optical frequency combs are transformative light sources that have profoundly reshaped precision metrology, as highlighted by the Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to Theodor W. Hänsch in 2005. Their applications span a wide range of fields, including pollutant sensing, distance measurement for autonomous vehicles, and exoplanet detection.
Among the various platforms capable of generating frequency combs, high-quality-factor resonators stand out for their ability to produce broad and stable combs. Despite significant progress, the fundamental mechanisms governing their formation remain only partially understood. Gaining deeper insight into these mechanisms is essential for improving control over comb characteristics for the aforementioned applications.
In particular, resonators capable of generating multiple frequency combs require dedicated investigation. These systems are of central interest for dual-comb spectroscopy, optical ranging, and neuromorphic computing, yet their intrinsically multidimensional nonlinear dynamics introduce a level of complexity that remains unresolved.
