About the role
Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). MAS covers diverse topics ranging from pure mathematics to the applications of mathematics in cryptography, computing, business, and finance. PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.
Key Responsibilities:
- To develop and setup time-of-flight measurements techniques for investigating slow light.
- To operate and maintain the time-resolved photoluminescence and transient absorption spectroscopy setups.
- To operate and maintain optical beamlines/setups for home-built micro-transient absorption spectroscopy experiments.
- To conduct micro photoluminescence and micro-transient absorption spectroscopy studies on semiconductor samples.
- To perform data analysis and data interpretation of micro photoluminescence and micro-transient optical spectroscopy experiments independently.
- To assist the principal investigator with the writing of research papers
Job Requirements:
- The candidate will be tasked to prepare perovskite nanomaterials and conduct ultrafast optical spectroscopy studies on them. The candidate is also required to perform data analysis and data interpretation.
- Excellent knowledge in chemical synthesis, optics, photophysics of semiconductors, charge and quasi-particle dynamics, charge transfer mechanisms, ultra-high vacuum femtosecond lasers, and femtosecond laser spectroscopy is essential. A written and oral test of the candidate’s technical competency of femtosecond lasers, photophysics concepts, and ultrafast optical spectroscopy basics will be conducted during the interview.
- Excellent knowledge in the optical characterization of semiconductor materials (including nanostructures) which includes transient spectroscopy (pump-probe, time-resolved PL), and material characterizations (XRD, AFM, GIWAXS/GISAXS).
- Candidate must possess at least Bachelor Degree in Physics or Chemistry or Chemical Sciences.
- In addition, candidate must possess at least a BSc 1st Class/2nd Class Upper Honours Degree in Physics or Chemistry or Chemical Sciences or nanomaterials and nanotechnology
- Critical Requirement: Candidate must have a Minimum 3 Years of Research Experience in Ultrafast Lasers and Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy of semiconductor materials.
- Critical Requirement: Candidate must also have a Minimum 3 Years of Research Experience in the study of photophysics in semiconductor systems.
- Critical Requirement: Candidate must also have a Minimum 3 Years of Research Experience in the operation of ultra-high vacuum systems.
