Research Fellow (Theoretical Exciton-Polaritonics)

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.

A Research Fellow position is currently available in SPMS. Following the commencement of a new NRF CREATE project (N-GAP) and a soon to start MOE Tier 3 project (Quantum Geometric Advantage), we need to increase the capacity of our group to perform theoretical research and meet the project objectives.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct theoretical modelling of exciton-polariton systems

• Provide modelling of exciton-polariton networks and lattices

Job Requirements:

• PhD degree in theoretical polaritonics or related areas, with focus on the modelling of exciton-polariton lattices

• Experience in numerical simulation of periodic polaritonic systems, with techniques such as the guided mode expansion and/or finite difference time-domain for exciton-polaritons (not using commercial software for other photonic systems)

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English is essential to conduct research

• Strong publication record

The College of Science seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.
