Postdoctoral Position in Spectroscopy

Postdoctoral Position in Spectroscopy

EPFL - Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne

Lausanne, Switzerland

Mission

The Laboratory of Nanoscience for Energy Technologies (LNET) is looking for a postdoctoral fellow to contribute to the ongoing research effort on metasurfaces for optical, energy and quantum devices. In particular, our research investigates photo-thermo-optical nonlinearities for reconfigurable metasurfaces and leverages non-linear metasurfaces for the investigation of interfacial phenomena.

Main duties and responsibilities

The candidate will lead the development of spectroscopic methods for the characterization of linear and non-linear metasurfaces. The candidate will have the opportunity to supervise both PhD students and junior researchers (BSc/MSc students).

Candidate Profile

We are looking for a candidate with a strong interest in highly inter-disciplinary and challenging projects. The ideal profile would have:

• Strong background and expertise in linear and/or non-linear spectroscopy;
• Strong experience with the design and characterization of metasurfaces;
• Strong expertise in the design and realization of optical characterization set-ups;
• Excellent communication and writing skills.

We are a highly collaborative group and therefore we seek candidates with excellent team-work capabilities and interpersonal skills.
