Job Description

Experimental researchin quantum optomechanics and quantum thermodynamics in optoelectronics nanostructures

Over the past two decades, the progress of semiconductor nanotechnologies as led to an exquisite degree of control of artificial hybrid optoelectronic elementary excitations known as exciton-polaritons. The unique features of these quasi-particles have the potential to put quantum optomechanics and thermodynamics into yet unexplored regimes of operations, characterized by a deeply nonequilibrium situations, and by larger optomechanical interactions, stronger light-matter interface, and ultrafast operations, at the expense of dealing with more complex many-body quantum states state-of-the art systems. The purpose of this research position is to setup and run an experimental platform dedicated to investigating new polaritonic nanostructures in this context. The impact of this work is expected to occur both at the fundamental level, and for the realization of quantum-enhanced functionalities (e.g. ultra-sensitive force sensors). This work requires theory and experiment to develop alongside, and will thus be carried out within a strong theory-experiment partnership.

Job Requirements

Covid-19 Message

At NUS, the health and safety of our staff and students are one of our utmost priorities, and COVID-vaccination supports our commitment to ensure the safety of our community and to make NUS as safe and welcoming as possible. Many of our roles require a significant amount of physical interactions with students/staff/public members. Even for job roles that may be performed remotely, there will be instances where on-campus presences are required.

In accordance with Singapore's legal requirements, unvaccinated workers will not be able to work on the NUS premises with effect from 15 January 2022. As such, job applicants will need to be fully COVID-19 vaccinated to secure successful employment with NUS.
