Job Description:
We are looking for one (1) Research Fellow for research activities in the following areas:
(a) Theory and computational modeling of electromagnetism in media, plasmonic systems, and metamaterials, including cavity quantum electrodynamics.
(b) Inverse design in nanophotonics or quantum nanophotonics.
(c) Application of plasma modeling tools like particle-in-cell and magnetohydrodynamics to plasmonic or excitonic systems.
(d) Study novel optoelectronic effects in low-dimensional materials and time crystals.
The applicants should have a Bachelor's degree (for the Research Assistant position) or a Ph.D. degree (for the Research Fellow position) in Physics, Applied Physics, Engineering, or Applied Mathematics. Preference will be given to those with a strong publication record, open-minded, independent, and able to collaborate with other team members and experimental partners. Ph.D. students (graduating within 6 months) with relevant expertise are also encouraged to apply.
Technical requirements:
(a) Ability to formulate physical models and solve the formulated equations analytically or numerically.
(b) Strong foundation in numerical simulation, including developing and modifying existing codes to include multiple physics.
(c) Solid foundation in electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, solid-state physics, material sciences, and computational methods like finite-difference-time-domain, finite-element, particle-in-cell, etc.
