Research Assistant - 0.75 working-time

Participation in the collaborative research project "VCSEL Arrays for Scalable Supercomputer, Signaling and Sensing Technologies". The project aims to develop individually addressable VCSEL arrays for applications in neuromorphic optical information processing, optical tweezers for quantum computing, 6G communication, and advanced sensing. It addresses key challenges in device fabrication, scalability, integration, and control to enable innovative applications of this technology.
