The Association of Technology, Management and Applied Engineering, Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States, 87101
What Your Job Will Be Like
The Nanostructure Physics Department at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies (CINT) is seeking an outstanding Postdoctoral Appointee to work with a Department of Energy‑funded team to develop the next generation of quantum optical metasurfaces at the intersection of quantum optics and nanophotonics.
Responsibilities
Support research in nonlinear metasurfaces including harmonic generation, parametric down‑conversion and other quantum‑optical phenomena.
Design, simulate, fabricate, and/or characterize semiconductor based metasurfaces using electromagnetic simulation tools.
Study new physics phenomena and evaluate new concepts.
Report research results in top‑tier journals and professional conferences.
Generate new intellectual property through patent filing.
Qualifications We Require
PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Optical Science, or other related STEM field conferred within five (5) years prior to employment
Experience in: performing original research, demonstrated through a record of invention, original publications in top‑tier journals, and conference papers and presentations
Photonic design using FDTD or FEM based techniques
Experimental characterization including guided wave and free space optics
Nonlinear and quantum optics
Experienced with nanofabrication such as electron beam lithography, RIE/ICP and wet etching, metallization, scanning electron micrography, etc.
Qualifications We Desire
Experience in single‑photon measurements
Familiarity with cryostats for low temperature measurements
Knowledge of quantum optics as it relates to quantum information science, and measurements
Experience with femtosecond lasers, amplifiers, and s
Expertise in fabrication, characterization, and usage of various III‑V and II‑VI semiconductors (e.g. silicon, GaAs/AlGaAs/InP/InAs, etc.)
Design and test of photonics devices (such as waveguides, gratings, modulators, lasers, amplifiers, optical detectors)
About Our Team Our department supports the Center for Integrated Nanotechnology (CINT). CINT is a Department of Energy/Office of Science Nanoscale Science Research Center operating as a national user facility devoted to establishing the scientific principles that govern the design, performance, and integration of nanoscale materials.
Posting Duration This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days, including the 'posting date'. Sandia reserves the right to extend the posting date at any time.
Security Clearance This position does not currently require a Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance.
EEO All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status and any other protected class under state or federal law.
