Job description
The PhD project aims to develop solution-derived metal-oxides (typically barium titanate or lithium niobate), characterize their nonlinear optical properties, and design metasurfaces to explore polycrystalline materials as quantum light sources. This includes exploring chemical synthesis routes for ternary metal-oxides, combining these with nanopatterning methods such as soft nanoimprint lithography, and utilizing standard nanofabrication processes like lithography, etching, and electron microscopy. The project also involves developing numerical simulations for metasurfaces, implementing designs in chip fabrication, and conducting linear, nonlinear, and quantum optical experiments.
The successful candidate should be highly motivated and creative, hold a Master’s degree in physics, nanotechnology, material science, photonics, or related fields, and be interested in working in an interdisciplinary environment at the interface of quantum photonics and material science.
