Postdoctoral Researcher in Terahertz Science: We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our multidisciplinary team at École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS), Montréal, Canada. This is a 2-year position with the possibility of an additional year. The research will focus on novel nonlinear detection schemes in terahertz (THz) science. The successful candidate will work with cutting-edge optical and photonics systems in collaboration with our dynamic research group.
Designation:
Postdoctoral Researcher
Research Area:
Terahertz Science, Optics and Photonics, Quantum Physics, Electrical Engineering
Location:
École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS), Electrical Engineering Department, Montréal, Canada
Eligibility/Qualification:
- Ph.D. obtained within the last five years in a relevant field (Optics and Photonics, Quantum Physics, Electrical Engineering, or related disciplines).
- Experience in studying terahertz (THz) waves using optical techniques.
- Background in quantum optics is preferred.
- Familiarity with ultra-fast time-resolved optical techniques.
Job Description:
- Conduct advanced research in THz science, focusing on novel nonlinear detection schemes with different geometries, including lithium niobate, towards the single-photon level.
- Work with a dedicated system, including a Carbide laser and a powerful THz source.
- Collaborate with and supervise joint projects within the research group.
- Publish research findings in high-impact journals and present results at scientific conferences.
- Participate in discussions and planning for future research directions.
- The postdoctoral salary is equivalent to that of the Canadian Banting Fellowship. Further details will be provided during the interview process.
