The project’s goal is to develop innovative strategies using the nonlinear complexity of light waves in optical fibers. We will explore various nonlinear effects and the spatial, temporal, and spectral freedoms of multimode fibers to develop new light sources and multidimensional light control techniques. Both single-mode and multimode fibers will be considered. Our main objective is to advance the understanding of spatiotemporal mode-locking and the potential of multimode fiber laser technology, aiming to discover novel regimes of multiple spatiotemporal dissipative solitons and soliton molecules.

• Developing and characterizing of multimode fiber lasers in a regime of energy management
• Data analysis and preparation of reports

We offer a scholarship position in the Institute of Physical Chemistry PAS with a monthly stipend of 1500 PLN per month financed from the OPUS 25, Project no. 2023/49/B/ST7/01482. The scholarship is for 12 months.

The successful candidate will benefit in form of the knowledge and methods developed in the laboratory. We plan to publish the results of the work in high impact factor journals. The successful candidate will be eligible for all programs at the IPC PAS, including the IPC PAS Young Scientists competition and the IPC PAS Young Scientists Mobility competition. Institute provides an opportunity to participate in ERASMUS+ programme.
