A Research Fellow position is currently available at the Centre for Disruptive Photonic Technologies in the School of Physical & Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University (NTU).
The position will provide the successful candidate with valuable experience for a career in the Photonics and Nanotechnology sectors.
The Research Fellow will be interacting with Research Fellows and PhD students and will directly reporting to and closely working with ASTAR-NSLA project grant Lead investigator, CDPT deputy director and programme manager. This may also require working with visiting researchers, students and travelling internationally to conduct collaborative work.
Key Responsibilities:
Carry out the research activities of the CDPT, within the ASTAR “Nano Spatial Light Modulator programme” project grant.
Carry out experimental studies of the perovskite metasurfaces and metadevices for light emission.
Perform nanooptoelectronic experiments on novel designs and architectures for light-emitting perovskite metadevices.
Generate a substantial body of novel experimental, theoretical and numerical work in nano-optoelectronic devices using perovskites, as defined by the ASTAR research programme. This may also require working with visiting researchers, students and travelling internationally to conduct collaborative work.
Contribute in running and maintaining the Infrared Nanophotonics laboratory at CDPT.
Manage the interactions with local (ASTAR) and international collaborators of the project.
Participate in joint research with other CDTP partners and cooperating parties and to support CDPT projects requiring fabrication, assembling and testing of the devices.
Contribute in preparation of progress reports, as well as attendance at regular project meetings (and participation in organizing such meetings) and research conferences.
Contribute to the organisation and day-to-day smooth running of the CDTP, to assist in the supervision of PhD students.
Prepare publications for leading scientific journals and at international conferences.
Support the development of future grant proposals, and the development and protection of intellectual property.
Job Requirements:
PhD in Physics, Optical Engineering, Material Science, or closely-related disciplines
Solid knowledge and in depth understanding of device photophysics, optics, nano-optics, nanophotonics, electromagnetic waves propagation;
Experience with perovskite optoelectronic device fabrication (from film synthesis and deposition to electrical connectivity and electrical characteristic measurements)
Experience with spectroscopic characterization setups and systems.
Experience with nanoscopic fabrication, phase change thin film growth technologies, and characterization tools and methods such as e.g. FIB/SEM, optical lithography etc
Good track record of scientific publications in international peer reviewed journals
Ability to work independently and as part of a team with strong initiative
Good communication and interpersonal skills
