Overview:

Baylor University is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Nonlinear Nanophotonics, Plasmonics, and Metasurfaces. The Nano-Optics group at Baylor University invites applicants for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to participate in the project of “Nonlinear metasurfaces, plasmonics, and zero-index materials”. The successful candidate will join our research program led by Professor Howard Lee in the Department of Physics at Baylor University (Waco, Texas, USA).

About the position:

• The projects will focus on some of these studies:

1. Tenable nonlinear optical met surfaces
2. Nonlinear optics in epsilon-near-zero materials
3. Reconfigurable nonlinear plasmatic waveguides and nanostructures

• The successful candidate is expected to make high-impact contributions to cutting edge research areas and also have the opportunity to collaborate with scientists at Texas A&M, and Naval Research Lab. The position is available as early as February 2020.

 Eligibility Criteria:

• PhD in physics, material sciences, photonics, or engineering
• Research experience in nonlinear optics and plasmonics/metamaterials
• Strong experimental skills in nonlinear optical characterization, nanofabrication, and free-space optics
• Familiarity with nonlinear simulation and numerical modeling (Lumerical, Comsol, Matlab, etc.)
• Highly motivated for working in an interdisciplinary environment with graduate and undergraduate students, and have passion to perform excellent research in nanophotonics.
• Salary commensurate with experience and qualifications

 How to apply:

1. To Apply Interested applicants are encouraged to send a CV and a brief statement of research interests to Prof. Howard Lee (Howard_Lee@Baylor.edu).
2. Official application could be submitted to https://jobs.baylor.edu/postings/5989.
